2026-w18 rest
The word that sums up this week is: rest. The weekdays were overloaded, with one crazy fire happening after another (no rest); but thankfully the weekend was really restful. We had planned for some friends to come for dinner on Sunday, but they couldn’t make it in the end: this was a Godsend as we could spend the day working in the sun and then I could chill with a bit of Wheel of Time. Sunday too was slow paced and pretty free of committments: a top moment for me was playing a game with my family on in the afternoon. I think the sunny days also have a large roll in helping me recover from an overloaded week.
Something I’m looking forward to next week is a family lunch outing planned for the weekend.
Headlines
April w/c 2026-04-20
Understanding. Some great discussion with a few couples at Church about raising teens. We’ll be there soon! Some good tips about not taking work stress home on the happiness lab
Creating & cultivating. Moving about a ton of new topsoil into the back and side of the house. Clearly needing more unfortunately! Also enjoyed working through a couple old pocket notebooks to transfer entries to keep contemplating.
Consuming. Probably way too much sugar and internet! I am feeling the need to find some non-screen media to consume that is not a book: news magazines?
Connecting. A team social after work this week involving food and games. I really appreciated the chance to just hang out.
Pen & ink combo: Faber Castell Loom with 🟦 Sailor Potsu Potsu
For my future self. I am leaning into the challenge despite not being able to control the outcomes.
