An actually better day.

I actually had a somewhat good day today.

I got up at a non-ridiculous hour. I made beignets (my parents bought me a mix when they went to New Orleans earlier this year). The beignets were actually not terrible and puffed up more than they did the last time I made them. I crocheted a bunch on my little crochet scarf, mostly because I wanted to get to the next color change in the yarn (I have fallen hard for Lion Brand's Mandala yarn cakes). I went with my parents to Nashville because my dad had to catch a flight. I knit on the way there and crocheted on the way back.

I wrote my 750 Words. I made an afghan piece. I... tried to write. But failed. I probably wasn't trying hard enough. (That is the only bad thing about today.) I did my chores and helped out Mom with some stuff. I washed my jeans and my shorts. I started a new save file on Stardew Valley, just because.

I am by and large feeling contented and nice. So that's nice. 

I think not making a to-do list a mile long helped. I didn't get overwhelmed with what to do. I just picked a few things and did them. I might do some more before I go to bed. I need to read some books in the next ten days. So I could do that. Or I could watch some Doctor Who for the reviews on my Wordpress blog. Or I might just play Pokemon or Stardew or something else.

Who knows.

I'm glad you had a better day! Also, for what it's worth, every story I've tried to write wanted to be written in its own way and in its own time--some came super quickly and some didn't.

Thanks. :) Yeah, I've found that to be true, too. I'm hoping I can get some work done by going to the library today. I've found a change of scene sometimes does me a lot of good.
