I like when apps are "finished" Sometimes the software we see out there doesn't need to be further updated. Sometimes it's just good enough!

Scarring: re-post | Notion Today was a long day so I’m sharing something previously written. In a surprise to both you and me, I’m writing this at like 3 am so am just trying to show I’m remembering that I wanted to do blogvent...

#blogvent day 20 is something that I previously wrote but wanted to reshare. Overall I think I'm pretty good at vignettes and not so good at longer form stories or anything. But this one was fun to write.

I have become more of a writing utensil snob I really like nice pencils and pens and it's not a problem, I am totally in control? But I probably have too many now.

For today's #blogvent post (day 20!) I wrote an update post to what I wrote about last year: writing utensils. I may be beyond help.

My #blogvent for Day 12 is just a quick thought about a bird I saw yesterday in the fountain. It was a ruby crowned kinglet that's really cute and so flighty it's hard to catch them standing still.
