The one with all the snow.

Hey pals! I clearly cannot be trusted to write every week, so I’m turning my weeknotes into monthly reviews. Here are the headlines for January:

😄 Good stuff

We got some snow here in Notts. It was a nice little shake up to the lockdown routine.
I got into hand embroidery and it’s great fun!
Had a call with the mental health nurse at my GP surgery, and “aced” the ADHD triage questionnaire, so I’m being referred for a proper assessment.
Got some good speakers for my desk, so the vibes have gone 📈 📈 📈

Our house buying process is dragging on, the bank is being nitpicky about documents, and everything takes an age.
My setup has been really annoying lately. I managed to get the monitor replaced, but I’m still having some issues, so now to figure out if it’s the cables or the macs.
My routine hasn’t been great, which in turn makes me feel not great.

We whizzed through AC Origins and are now making our way through AC Odyssey. I love Kassandra! She’s rad, and hits on everyone, sometimes at very inappropriate times, which is hilarious 😄
Started reading Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo, and I’m really enjoying it. Thanks, work secret santa 🙌🏼
Thom told me all about the Royal Institution’s Christmas Lectures and we watched a couple of them. They’re awesome!
We’ve been mostly rewatching films instead of watching new ones. The ones we rewatched in January were Die Hard 2, Falling Down and The Big Short - such a great film.
