1. Played a lot of bodhrán today. Rhythm hand is getting more reliable and in control, starting to move my other hand around more on the skin, playing with tone, moving both hands around the area of the drum a lot more. I think I'm gonna spend about a week fucking around with that (and maybe some different cipíní) the next week rather than move on to the next lesson

2. I've named my bodhrán Bebo. Yes it was a social media site, but before that, it was the name of a Queen in Celtic mythology. A tiny one who fell into a bowl of porridge. I like the bowl association with the shape of the bodhrán, and it's sort of onomatopoeic.
I'm very happy with this name

3. Bubs had a lot of fun hitting the bodhrán today. Lol, me with tissues cleaning up his slobber the moment it touched the precious drumskin. He's got a cold and a pair of teeth coming through at the same time.

Dear Friends off world,

Three good things about neo-humans

1. We are organic (don't eat us) 👽

2. We welcome you for tea (you are not going to be abducted) 👽

3. Anything you need? Probably not...

As we may know the arrogant assumption that we can communicate is not supported by the evidence. In fact even evidence is not in vogue by some sub-humans.

Meanwhile the creatives, weirdos and nature tenders are our growing kindness. Our actions define us not our 'fine' words. Obvious really

Friday, June 13💐

1. Had a friend over to visit & pick up her birthday gift — two mugs adorned with her travel photos from the past couple of years AND a box of chocolate truffles. She left smiling. 😊
2. One more day & I can harvest my lone tomato. There are several new ones on the vine for next month.
3. Two huge egrets and two mallards just flew over the yard. They must have a secret swimming hole nearby.
4. Bonus: my five crape Myrtle trees have begun to bloom & the roses are starting their second show.
✔️If you’re protesting tomorrow, stay safe!

Got materials needed for a big house project delivered;

Two generations of dear friends came for the weekend;

My sweetie came home, saw my new haircut and my art project in progress, and gave me several compliments before I even got out of my chair to hug him hello.

+ Neue Kochherausforderung
+ #TheFinder fertig geschaut (und das Ende ist schlimm)
+ Neues Hörbuch angefangen #ApocalypseComedy von #HunterMythos

Oil change has been done, tires, filters, and fluids checked and replaced as needed. Good to get these maintenance needs tended to.

Big pan of brisket enchiladas in the oven. We streamed some '50s Cuban mambo music to rev up our flagging energy while Hubby helped me assemble them, his first lesson in enchiladafacturing. He's so excited!

Wrist is healing well. A good night's sleep, and I can get back to my regular day's programming.

Three good things today:
- My colleague and I escorted an elderly lady to a shelter where she can now live. And as we were leaving, I heard her locking her room door to make her feel safe.
- At the shooting range, the instructor showed me how to use a rope to attach my hand to the bow so that it would be loose when I shot.
- At home, I got in the hot water and read Ursula LeGuin and Becky Chambers.

① I received an email that sounds… positive-ish I guess? Keeping my fingers crossed, though! 🤞

② The father of one of my students whom I’m tutoring cooked noodles for us and we sat down to eat together at the dining table.

③ Had a call with two of my closest students from Class of 2026 and played Roblox for a bit.

Today:

- I had a lovely chat with one of the gardeners at the woodland garden which is part of my walk most days

- I had a pie out of the freezer for an easy dinner

- I wasn’t intending to test the limits of my fatigue, but I did a bit more than usual and felt the consequences. It’s good to confirm where my limits are I guess!

I cook one good meal for myself and feel like a castled king! I haven't had much appetite this week, but feeding myself is more than just quelling an appetite. It means I care. 💓

I must have prayed at least ten times today. I survived the day! Not limping at all, the heart is a profound muscle.

I realized improv is like a puzzle. I'm pretty good at puzzles. 🦹🏻‍♂️
