Month notes & numbers №6

Notable

Daily lettering. Inspired by last month’s blogging challenge, I decided to take up another month-long “creativity sprint”. I tried to dedicate some time to making a handlettered piece on the iPad every day.

I started rolling around with a pocket notebook. The more I do this, the more I like it. The other day I hadn’t done my morning setup in the notebook and I felt rather “untethered” all day, and I forgot to buy bananas 😭. Absolutely sticking with this new system.

I kept buying stationary. I feel like I could have an “obsession of the month” segment in these mn&n’s because it seems like every month I’m locked in on something or other. This month it was pens (and notebooks - see above).

I listened to The Sanderlanche Podcast. I was looking for a podcast after I started reading The Mistborn Trilogy. I’m really enjoying this one! It is a discussion between a host (who has read the books) and three people (who are reading the books). I love to listen to the episode for each section just after I’ve read the section.

I got cleared to run again. After months of going to the physio and doing rehab I was told I can ease back in to running! Just sticking to walk-runs at the moment, but I’m glad to finally be back at it.

Work

Finished my permissions work finally. Now working on upgrading our billing and payments system at CodePen.

The work soundtrack: brat

Watched

More Marvelous Mrs Maisel. Finished Season 2 and now we’ll take a break and watch something else for a bit.

Read

I’m at the end of Mistborn: The Well of Ascension. No idea how Sanderson is going to wrap all this up by the end of the book.
