    I have almost reached 50 reviews/ratings on goodreads. That’s about how exciting my life is these days.

    What are you all excited/happy about recently?

      My blog had two viewers today. They were both me using different devices, but it’s something.

      Also I have a burger planned for dinner tonight. That’s pretty exciting.

      Made stir fry noodles for dinner using Nagi’s all purpose sauce recipe. It worked out very nice. Recently have started listening to audiobooks. This is related because for first time listened whilst making dinner, and I very much liked the combo of the activities.

      I read a whole book yesterday! I haven’t read a book in ages, it’s called Wimmera by Mark Brandi. I used to be the sort of person who’d be reading 6 books at once, even as a child. But after I had a breakdown around 15 years ago I found I no longer had the concentration to read. I’d read the same few pages repeatedly and keep forgetting things, or be unable to grasp it somehow and give up in frustration and befuddled sadness. I found this book very engaging and, due to the places and times of the setting, very familiar also. So I finally read a book again. That was my excitement for the weekend!

      I’m happy to rest and stay warm tonight.

      Not very ambitious though.

      Might go charge my headphones and immerse myself in music for a bit later
