I am absolutely going to start posting here more.

It will just take some time to get into the swing of things, and for me to figure out topics. I've been slacking on this, have a bunch of half-finished drafts, but nothing finished. This post will probably be taken down once I have real posts ready to go.
I am also going to stick with one of Blogger's standard themes purely because the mobile versions look decent and that is a thing I apparently need to think about now. It is not the most customized, but it works and that is more important.
In any case, expect a short review on 4thewords sometime in the next week (might even be in the next few days). I don't know if I have enough in me to post more than once a week, but I'm going to try to keep that schedule going for as long as I can.  I do not have a niche for this, and I doubt I ever will, so I can't really tell you what to expect in general, other than: writing talk, the occasional stationery-related review, and maybe some posts about ADHD because I live with it. This will evolve, I'm sure of it.

One year after the pandemic began

Over here on my little island we're just coming out of level 5 lockdown. For the last month, we've been dealing with a massive cluster of cases along with one of the Covid-19 variants. It appears to be settling down now. We've had the longest provincial election ever (which still isn't over, by the way!). We have a vaccine plan now so the ball is finally rolling on that. I am genuinely not sure what day it is because of how repetitive everything has been. In fact, I started using a planner not because I had anything to keep track of, but because it's proof that something happened each day. It is not a very big planner, just an A6-sized one. I've also been spending a lot of time playing Stardew Valley. It's taken me three months to watch a single season of Supernatural (because I figured I may as well watch the entire show now it's over. Yes, I know it goes off the rails after like season five. No, I don't actually care. I don't watch television ...

Goodbye 2021. I'm not going to miss you.

Kind of hoped that I'd have more to talk about for another end of the year post. I do not. 2021 was a close repeat of 2020, only with more vaccines, and slightly less lockdown. Slightly. Like 10% less lockdown. I don't know, I am not great at math.  As of right now, my province is under level alert 3, which... all things considered, could be worse. 50% capacity in most places, limit of 20 people per private gathering. We're stuck like this until January 10th. No one likes it. No one . We're getting record levels of cases, and it's to the point that contact tracing is backlogged. I don't know. I'm just kind of... done, I guess. It's been a long, long two years and I will not be sad to see 2021 go. Nothing happened. It's like the entire world got put on pause for an entire year. It was weird . I did not get much written this year. My 4thewords total says around 368k, and that's better than I expected. I didn't get anything finished. There were ...
 Has it actually been nine months since I posted last?!? Time must have gotten away from me.  I suppose I don't like posting when I have nothing to say, other than the fact that I have been having the worst luck technology-wise. This is what I mean: finally upgraded my 10+ year old laptop to a refurbished ~4 year old year laptop (I think). Good! Also, I don't think I can ever go back to non-business-grade laptops now. I think it's the matte screen. Bad: the brand new external hard drive I bought to go along with the laptop (because it had a smaller hard drive than my older laptop) basically was near-dead the day I got it. After trying to make it work for two weeks, I finally send it back for a refund.  Refund cost me $25 for shipping because they only do free UPS return shipping and the nearest UPS place is like over an hour's drive away. Not great. But whatever, it's out of my hands. Laptop is fine for several months. Yay. I do Camp NaNoWriMo during this time, sinc...
