Day Thirty-Six ~ September 7th, 2018
Just under a month for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey **happy dancing** I can’t wait! It looks like they built off all the awesome new game play for Origins and added some extra rad things. Not long to go now, but it is tough to wait for this game!! Fingers crossed that I stay so busy with the kid’s school schedule that I don’t even notice the time going by anymore.
Day 134 ~ March 22nd, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: stoup ~ a container for drinking beers, etc.; a flagon.
Today’s Calendar Quote: “The eye may see from the hand, but not for the mind.” — Henry David Thoreau
Monday’s and Thursday’s seem to be the worst days of the week for me to get any kind of decent sleep. Not sure exactly why this is, but that’s what I’ve noticed over the last two weeks or so.
My son had his regular therapy session this afternoon and I went upstairs to fold laundry and nearly fell asleep when I took a moment to recline. Just so tired all the time and don’t have a solution for it for the time being.
Day 130 ~ March 18th, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: erubescent ~ a reddening or blushing.
Today’s Calendar Quote: “It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away,
so that when I’ve gone and come back, I’ll find it at home.” — Rumi
I will make the cookies I’ve had halfway prepped for quite some time today. I actually looked over the recipe and pulled the rest of the ingredients out so it makes sense to just get them done now. Here’s hoping that I get them done so I can stop shuffling the stuff around the kitchen counters haha
Day 129 ~ March 17th, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: eggcorn ~ a word or phrase that is a seemingly logical alteration of another word or phrase that sounds similar.
This morning is the earliest morning yet with Bolt awake at about 3:30am…. By the evening I know I’ll definitely be feeling it and I likely be cranky. I can guarantee it’ll take me no time at all to fall asleep tonight when I finally get to bed.
Day 125 ~ March 13th, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: chiliad ~ a thousand things or a thousand years.
Today’s Calendar Quote: “May the forlorn find new hope, constant happiness and prosperity.” — Shantideva
Ugh! I did not get much sleep last night as it was the pup’s first night here. So I was up often to make sure there were no accidents. I can’t wait for my son to meet him!

Also, today is the release day for the new expansion for Assassin’s Creed Origins— The Curse of the Pharaohs! The download is over 15GB so I ended up falling asleep on the couch as I waited for it to finish doing that. Totally unintentional, but at least the game was ready for me to play when I woke up 🙂
Day 123 ~ March 11th, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: Mx. ~ a title of respect prefixed to a person’s surname. Unlike Mr., Mrs., or Ms., it does not indicate gender.
I’m trying to figure out a way to digitize my recipes and so far can’t see to come up with a good plan. I was going to move to a cue card box, but I honestly don’t want to write all of them out on cards. But having them in a binder isn’t working out either. It’s tough to store and it gets dirty are my too biggest annoyances with it. Anyway I will continue with the brainstorming and hopefully I can come up with a great solution.
Day 116 ~ March 3rd, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: pother ~ a commotion or fuss.
I decided to start lifting weights for the time being. I was missing it more than I thought I was I guess. I’m continuing with the Combat HIIT, but finishing the program on Level 3 is less important now. I’ll try to treat it as more of a warm-up before I start lifting. The ab days in the HIIT program are awesome, but the rest is not doing it for me. I should’ve gone with Power Cardio I think. Oh well, maybe do that one next.
Day 103 ~ February 18th, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: froward ~ (Of a person) difficult to deal with.
Today’s Calendar Quote: “Throughout this life, you can never be certain of living long enough to take another breath.” — Huang Po
Since the day of chill wasn’t complete for yesterday we carried it over into today!
I’m playing through some the first areas in Assassin’s Creed Origins to pick up the XP before I continue through the Main Story Line.
It is seriously the most fun I’ve had playing a game in a long time! I want to play it every day, but I don’t partly because I don’t have the time to do that and the other part is that I don’t want it to be over too soon either 🙂
Day 84 ~ January 30th, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: deterge ~ to cleanse something thoroughly
Today’s Calendar Quote: “Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think…. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.” — The Dhammapada
**NOTE: I might need to prep my tags per post eventually. That is the part that takes the longest, not the actually typing up of each post daily, and I often get distracted. Then, like today, I end up publishing all the posts I’ve had sitting in drafts for a few days… I want to stop this!**
Anyway only a quick post because this is my only kid-less evening and I want to take full advantage of it!
Played some Assassin’s Creed 2 with a friend tonight 🙂 It was a blast and I’d never played this game yet so it was interesting and a touch confusing! I’m so used to the game controls in the new game (Origins) that it took a little while to figure them out. I’m looking forward to moving through The Ezio Collection over this year, I say this long because my focus will still be Origins. Gotta prioritize the games haha
Day 71 ~ January 17th, 2018
Today’s Calendar Word: compeer ~ a companion or close associate
Today’s Calendar Quote: “No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” — Aesop
I had a couple of day stretch of where I didn’t feel completely exhausted, but I’m back to feeling that way again. It seems my body has decided that between 4:15 and 4:30 a.m. coming up on a week now…. -_-
I have my fingers crossed for a better end to this week in regards to my sleeping issues! I can’t keep going on like this and I can’t seem to find a solution either!
Happiness To Be Had
