What can I say about May 2022, except that it came and went way too quickly. And I discovered there’s a world day for bees! Clever Girl and I visited her best friend, and I took a solo trip into town for my transplant review – then did some shopping, caught a tram, a train, […]
April 2022 Progress Report
So, April 2022 marked the start of the second quarter, and my second 12 Week Year, the first using the 12 Week Year For Writers. And started with a sense of excitement. Even though April’s only just ended, it feels like ancient history. Can’t even rightly recall what happened! I really must get back into […]
March 2022 Progress Report
The end of March 2022 marks the end of the quarter, and I can’t help feeling the year is over. Though I suppose my first 12 Week Year is. It’s left me feeling tired and a bit irritable. My medium sized drama minor surgery has turned out well in the end. Though I find the […]
February 2022 Progress Report
Now that it’s February 2022, thanks to the 12 Week Year, I have the uncomfortable feeling the year is half over. And it kind of is. My minor surgery turned into a medium sized drama when the big hole got infected. Extra strong antibiotics that made me feel ill, and plenty of lazing about. Which […]
January 2022 Progress Report
January 2022, the first four weeks of my first attempt at a 12 Week Year. With mixed results. January 2022 got off to a fairly slow start, despite my high expectations. We’ve had some scorchingly hot days, and some thunderstorms. Clever Girls’s demeanour depends on the amount of exercise she gets – sometimes enough, and […]
December 2021 Progress Report
Ah, December 2021, when the year that was FINALLY ran out of steam and ground down to the end. I thought we’d never make it. I got all the important stuff done by about the 15th, so for a couple of glorious weeks I had NO deadlines!! Virtue Nov Dec Notes Beauty: bodyI enjoy exercising […]
November 2021 Progress Report
November 2021 was like when someone (e.g., your recorded meditation) tells you to set your mind free and let it go anywhere it wants to go, but you don’t know where that is. And the options are endless so you don’t do much. Though it all took place around the frameword of my end-of-year medical […]
October 2021 Progress Report
October 2021 marked the lifting of restrictions and the end of Covid lockdowns. We were watching the vaccination rate increase, and I felt like a kid again, counting down the last couple of weeks before school broke out for the holidays! So now, we can now travel as far from home as we want, and […]
September 2021 Progress Report
September 2021 is best summed up by Dickens. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of […]
August 2021 Progress Report
Well, it’s August 2021, and I’m still here. Nothing much has changed since last month… Remember the good old days when something was always happening? Still in lockdown. Still confined to quarters. Discovered the fascinating world of C-drama (Chinese). Just as well – I’m having trouble concentrating on any kind of book that’s more than […]
July 2021 Progress Report
Is it July 2021 already? It’s almost not worth ticking the days off the calendar – my life feels like one long hump day. Groundhog Wednesday… And yet somehow, I managed to roll my year over into the next financial year. And transfer from one journal into a new one. I even thougth seriously about […]
June 2021 Progress Report
June 2021. I’ve no idea how to describe June. Or where it went. Though I know I wrote a new short story a collection… After such a massively productive May, it feels a bit like I needed a month to recover. I started to update my end of the financial year records and set up […]
