I bought a gammon joint, roasted it, sliced it and froze it for future nomming. And I made a delicious dinner using a random pork belly recipe that I found on someone's blog.

I finished a section of the last chapter. Still writing. Almost done.

Wrote the words.

[untonuggan]

YAY

I maybe completed an outline for the fic I can't believe I'm writing. I hope I did, given how long just the outline is.

I got out of the house, albeit in my wheelchair.

[untonuggan]

Out of the house is out of the house! Go you!

yay fic!

I finished knitting the hat! I used positive coping mechanisms. I helped make spaghetti sauce in preparation for tonight.

[ofearthandstars]

Wooo, knitting!

I did All of the Laundries (4 loads), and cleaned suspicious spots from the walls and ceiling.

Was trying to bury my head in the sand when it came to house chores but I still did some (laundry, dishwasher, trash).

[fyreharper]

Yay, go you!

There was a potluck last night for a student group sort of loosely related to the program I'm in. I said I'd drive people when they sent out the invites. Then they sent an email about how many people were going and that the ones providing transportation would have to get there earlier and leave later than everyone else, and I started to really, really not want to go. I have really bad anxiety lately and hate big parties to begin with, so I really didn't like being told I couldn't leave early if it got to be too much for me. But by then it was too late to back out, so I went to the meetup place anyway, and I actually stuck in there until I found the people I was supposed to meet instead of like waiting around for five minutes and going "wellp, no one here, guess I have to leave!" I was just lucky they had enough cars so I didn't have to drive anyone.

Also there's a CopperBeech apartment complex on the far side of town that I'd heard of, and there's a Coppertree condo development a few mles from where I live that I hadn't. So when I saw the email, I just said "oh, I know where Copper Beech is!" and figured that I would just look for the building where all the cars were. So of course I went out to the west side of town and got lost trying to find the place that wasn't there.

So I went home to check the address again and take some ibuprofen because of a medical thing acting up, and instead of just calling it a loss and staying home, I actually went back over to he house once I figured out where it was. I was an hour late by that point, still in a lot of pain because ibuprofen doesn't do much for me, and it turned out to be about fifty or sixty people I didn't know who were all already talking to other people, but I stayed long enough to eat before I decided that it was more than I could deal with. And I guess it's something to ignore the "I should haves" (I should have stayed longer, I should have tried harder to edge into someone's conversation, I should have been more outgoing) and be okay with recognizing what I could handle at that point.

Got up in time to go to the farmers market!

[solitarywalker]

Awesome. (I often fail at that.)

I repaired a toilet, which was easy, but finding the part I needed was hard.
