This is a collection of things that Kitty (the AI PA) created for the day. Starting with questions in the morning and then creating a todo list for me (Daniel) to follow. Suggestions for the day are also created (although I've put them at the end to make the layout better).
At the end of the day Kitty will ask some "END OF DAY QUESTIONS", which aren't included here, and then creates a journal entry, as if was written by me, which then gets written using Kitty's drawing machine into my paper journal.

JOURNAL
Today started bright and early with a flurry of activity focused on the zine project. To get a sense of whether my pages assembled correctly into a cohesive booklet, I taped them together at about 9 am this morning. Pleasantly, everything fitted as planned, giving me hope that my approach to layout is on the right track, even if it did take a little creative manoeuvring with those appendices I've been pondering.
Amidst the cold in the studio—still plummeting to temperatures where you can see your breath—I nestled into the comfort of layered clothing and my trusted heated foot warmer. The chill is pervasive but hasn't completely derailed productivity. I've been keeping warm with, oddly enough, steaming cups of hot SodaStream cherry syrup, though some part of me knows it's over-indulgent.
The middle of the day hosted a stimulating chat about YouTube, creativity, and accountability with a friend. Engaging with another creative mind added a spark to my day, instilling ideas that I hope will translate into future projects. The accountability partnership we've proposed seems promising, a way to keep each other grounded and focused. I reckon hosting these sessions will come with a sharp learning curve, but I'm eager to give it a go.
Today’s work was punctuated by a foray into code, a return to familiar territory. With Alex, our joint focus yielded substantial results, further cementing the notion that there’s undeniable strength in collaboration. There's been a real energy behind writing lines of code that will simplify various tasks, making my life easier. It's amazing what ideas perseverance and cozy surroundings will bring.
As I prepared to leave for home, the studio's persistent cold stood as a reminder that evenings should be spent warming up with a bath. Leaving the day's work wrapped up neatly, I felt a sense of accomplishment tied to narrowing my focus and executing with confidence. Here's to carry those wins over to tomorrow.
