Hey everybody! 

Last week has been pretty smooth overall. Getting back into a normal routine. 

I've been waking up around 7-8am every morning. Having some coffee and spending a little time with my partner. Then getting to work and working until noon. Take around an hour lunch break, then back to work until I get tired between 3pm and 4pm. After work, take a little break then start cleaning and unpacking. Or go over to the old house and pick up more stuff. Then it's time to cook dinner and eat while watching something (been Dimension 20 mostly lately). Then back to cleaning, unpacking, laundry, whatever needs to be done until going to bed at 10pm. 

So, while things have been pretty routine, I haven't really had a break in a while. Feels like I've been going nonstop for several weeks, and I'll admit it's wearing on me a little. I am planning a vacation for later July. Just a few days at a cabin in the woods along with some hiking. That sounds really nice to me. As long as it's not TOO hot. I just read where a man and his stepson died while hiking at Big Bend where the temperatures were 119 degrees. We were also wanting to go to Big Bend sometime (but not in the summer and probably not this year). 

I've been enjoying setting up the new house though. I have my office pretty much set up at this point. Still need to organize some stuff. I have all my Lego boxes in here that I need to sort out or something. I also set up a little raised garden in the back yard, which is nice. I missed having a garden. I was gardening a lot before I started working on the game, back in 2020, but I stopped mostly because it became too difficult at the old house. The dogs tore up the garden, so we put fencing around it over there, and it was hard for me to get in and work in the garden with the fencing around it. So I just gave up. But the raised bed here works nice. I just have a few plants in it right now, but am looking forward to expanding it some. 

In my little spare time that I've had, I've played a little bit of Diablo 4 (maybe like 2 hours over the entire week lol), and I've been watching Dimension 20, and I've been writing a little bit on another game idea I had. 

And that's about it really. Been a good week. Feeling good mentally and physically. Very ready for this update to release. Very ready to get out and go hiking somewhere new. Really enjoying my new house and getting settled in. 

Love y'all and hope you have a great week!
