I think about tracking the number of hours I actually work, but I'm afraid that I'll either be depressed about the number itself or worried that I'm actually just really inefficient.

Today is Dydd Santes Dwynwen (St Dwynwen’s Day), the Welsh equivalent of St Valentine’s Day. Dwynwen was a 5th century Welsh princess, and we have many accounts of her life passed through oral tradition, and later writings. ❤️ 1/3

Today has been such an interesting day. I've remembered more words of English than yesterday and can form full sentences. It's amazing how relaxed one's brain can get over Xmas break.

All I want is a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, a freshly-fallen snow, a crackling fire, a riveting mystery novel, a kettle on the stove, and a healthy supply of emotional support scones.

My eldest daughter's nagging got too much. We took her to IKEA. It was crap. The drive back felt like Kamino from Star Wars: Episode II. Would not recommend.

Steps on to archivist soapbox, taps microphone The biggest lie you can tell yourself is "I'll remember." No. You won't. Write down/add metadata about who/what/where/when. Put a year on EVERYTHING. Now is a great time to group project this with family!

I fell asleep reading and was woken up by my daughter. Sleepily, I obeyed the command to book tickets to watch Wicked. It's in three hours and there's a 100% chance I will sleep through most of it. #tired #sleepy
