What did you do today?

I’m about to go shopping with my mom.

Went to the dentist,
Shopping,
Booked my next tattoo,
Lit the fire (in midsummer)

I'm about to go to the dentist

It's morning. I only got up about thirty minutes ago, and so I could say all I have done today is sleep.
However, I feel like last night was "sleeping therapy night" because for much of the night, as much as I'm aware of, my brain was trying to piece together stuff about my childhood and life. I was going to make a list called Therapy Noggin Notions but it is now an hour after I got up, and I've spent so much time looking for a more suitable place to post pretty personal stuff that the stuff I thought about have crawled back into their their little brain caves.

Brain Cave - like a memory palace, but without the plumbing, lights, or furniture.

I think my sleeping therapy night was brought on by the Deep Thinker thread. I spent a fair amount of time on that.

Went out for coffee today.

I've spent six hours typing two sets of comments, only to delete them with the thought "it does not matter."
The first thing I started working on was about something that happened to me this morning.
The second thing was a comment to a video about gift giving. I spent maybe three hours working on that. It was one of those things where one might come to the conclusion that I'm a "deep thinker" because I've had about fifty years with this on my my mind. I have a lot of data, but in the end, it does not matter because people and society are what they are and it just makes things crazy when it is not meant to be. I regurgitate a lot of information, but it was not necessarily well organised or well written. So I could either spend another three hours rewriting and editing, or I could abandon it and do something thoughtless and enjoyable.
I also wrote a comment that I did post. It was short and direct, and a tad off topic.

So the first comment was for Wrong Planet (three time longer than this). The other two were for Patreon, different subscriptions. The one was seriously six times long than this. The one I posted was a bit shorter than this post.
I could have been in WoW, levelling up and hopefully moving into my new WoW home.
Sigh. I need to lay down.

My daughter and myself went across the other side of Manchester for our biannual visit to the cemetery to tend to my dads and my brothers grave

It was a really nice day actually and I got to use my new gardening hand tools set that I got from the Argos

We cleaned the headstones, turned the soil and raked all the leaves away

My brother's grave has all them bloody little white pebbles all over it and every year I say I'm going to buy a fresh bag for him and every year I fail, so I just raked them and cleaned it as best as I could

Then we planted two mini Christmas trees (real ones), a berry tree and some other kind of plant

I'm pleased with the results

I mean, I hate to boast (as you know) but I'd say it's the best double plot in the cemetery, maybe even in the whole of Salford

Oh yeah and I threw a worm

Well as a matter of fiction, it was more like a king cobra

You sound like a good daughter / sister.

I mean sincere, diligent, loving.

(I am sorry for these words. Tending sounds like love and respect to me. But I might be speaking a different language. No disrespect is intended.)

It sounds like a very practical way to maintain connection and show respect and care.

I am glad you escaped unscathed from the cobra

Nothing

Posted all the cards for the flats this morning so that's that little task done

Got out of bed
Released the chooks
Fed the peachicks
Brewed a coffee
Blew a few cones
Got back in bed


I guess it's about time to shower and get today started.

I love the peachicks
