Hugs to Blabbs for being so profound. :heart:

I hope tomorrow is diamondy for you.

If I had a wish, I wish that you will have many more diamonds in the future.

I could follow that with Disappointing Diamonds, so I think I'll post it on the song thread.
It seems to be my anthem lately.

mebbe go to the shore on a bright day and watch the whitecaps, the sparkling bits of water might as well be diamonds afar shining and glinting just for us :star:

^^^^ This is one of the gems I get from canoeing. From my summer trip report:
"This day I had a quartering tail wind and by setting an angle, I practically felt like I was sailing up the lake. The wind scatters diamonds across the water, far more splendor than from any stones. My new paddle pushed the canoe effortlessly. I got into a rhythm and remembered what it was like to be young and strong."

My achievement was to climb onto the 4-wheeler and take off into the woods. The 4-wheeler does not require a right leg or ankle or foot (which is still in non-weight-bearing cast). Just need to make sure I don't run out of gas.

forced myself to do some pushups and core exercises, then walk outside in the cold and damp gloom.

In spite of the freezing temperature, I managed to go to the store to buy toilet paper because I was almost out of it.

Weird coincidence me too.

I know people think social media addiction's a joke but I find it hard to not go on forums and social media. I avoided constant use of it today, only going on at allocated times.

I got my stupid printer to work after it stopped working for no apparent reason. It took me several days, many uninstall and reinstall of the driver. Very frustrating. It finally works again.

I wrote 5 reports today and went through data for a 6th.

When i started working there were 2 of us and we wrote 2 reports per day. Automation and organization pays!
