Well, I’m not near as cranky as I was last week, which I can only take a sign of improvement, however slight. That said, I still feel like I’m slowly sliding back into Depressionville, which... ugh. Not a fan, but brainweasels gonna brainweasel, I guess. :-\

I’m still writing for my tiny NaNoWriMo goal. I’m about 2200 words shy of 17k for the month, and 75k (my [community profile] getyourwordsout pledge) for the year. So I really push at it, I should be done by the weekend. Who knows if I’m going to continue this draft of this story or not; I’m leaning towards rather not, but you never know, I guess.

Still playing Stardew Valley on my Switch. I’ve made it to Fall Year 2, which means I’m very close to finishing up the “story”, such as it is. I really need to get on top of making friends with people so I can max my score for the evaluation, though I’m pretty sure I’ve got that in the bag as it stands right now. Also I guess I need to face my fears and venture into the Skull Cavern, much as I don’t want to. I’m not going to bother with the 100-floor challenge, which I’ve only ever managed on PC with cheat mods, but the 25-floor challenge should be doable if I’m well prepared.

Also got a Roku box for my TV so I can watch Disney Plus. My mom did the preorder special for D23 members, so we’re paid up for three years. I haven’t actually watched anything yet, but I plan on at least watching Gargoyles again because why not. Also Gravity Falls is on there, too, so. I might check out The Mandalorian if I’ve got time, but... who knows. I haven’t been big into TV lately, so I might just never use it. Though I am using the Roku to watch YouTube on my TV. I listen to game soundtrack videos and I’ve recently started rewatching a Breath of the Wild LP, so that’s nice.

Cross-stitch is... going, I guess? I am working just on the cat project for my SIL right now, because I think I might be able to finish it before Christmas. I might switch things up in December since I won’t have NaNo hanging over my head and try to devote time to both projects (cat and Rivendell) each day, but... we’ll see. I’m trying my best to reduce stress because I don’t want to slide into depression again, so I might just do what I can do and not worry about the rest of it.

Can’t say there’s much else going on. Hope you all are doing well, as ever. Best wishes all around.

I've heard mixed-but-good things about The Mandalorian--but same as you, I haven't had the time/haven't been in the right headspace to really get into any new TV. Plus I'm too stubborn to cave and get Disney+...for now.
