I sat down and wrote my April recap. And to be honest: I AM TOTALLY SURPRISED!
I thought that I was *really* lazy this month. 2 weeks of grey bad weather dominated my memory. Just recapping how I spent this month was ... delighting. I don't feel lazy now any more.
I tried to make the post easy to read with captions and highlighting the important phrases.
(Yet I wonder if I always ommited the photos of the blog posts at the bottom 🤔)

Recap April 2024
April proved to be a month of varied experiences, from Line Dance championships to mountain biking and hiking adventures. Despite unpredictable weather and challenges, each weekend offered its own surprises. Stay tuned for a detailed exploration of April's journey, filled with both highs and lows.

Personal, dreams, sad
I don't know if I am capable of dreaming anymore. What are dreams, anyway? How are they different from desires, aspirations and efforts?
But I can consider what I could dream of.
I could dream of not being angry all the time. Of not being filled with hatred.
I could dream of feeling secure. Of not worrying all the time about food and shelter. Of losing health insurance and access to medicine.
I could dream of having someone to rely on, of someone who'd take care of me and the things I can't handle. Of not feeling guilty of not meeting the expectations of others and my own, all the time.
I could dream of being able to experience all that stuff that I read about in books and see in movies. Of it not being too late for me anymore.

I forget exactly when I bought this HP laptop I'm currently using. It was at least 5 years ago, and I grabbed it for school. It has Windows 10 that came on it preinstalled. I used it for a bunch of school stuff over the last few years, never had any issues.
Today, I'm trying to mess around in Excel, I'm logged into my Microsoft account like usual, and it's trying to tell me I have to pay now to keep using Excel? It just gives an option to pay or shut it down. After 5 …

Pikmin 3 Deluxe: I found a pear
I have a tendency to come to the Pikmin games late. I completed the first game on the GameCube, over two years after it released, due to people on uk.games.video.misc enthusing about it. I previously on this blog said that I played it twice, the second time in order to come in under the 30-day limit, but I think I was mistaken on that point; my first playthrough on the GameCube…

Starting a new regimen today. Every hour, before I can use my phone, I need to do 10 pushups. If I don’t use my phone that hour, I don’t have to do them. If the time is 9:45 and I haven’t used my phone yet that hour, but want to do so, I have to do 10 pushups.

And yes, I’ve done my first 10 before writing this. 😁💪

Will be interesting to see how many pushups I end up with today. Gonna be so buff in a couple of months. 😅

When I was going to sleep last night I thought of something I needed to buy to solve some kind of problem. I don't remember what it was or why I needed it.
I do remember which shop I was going to buy this thing in.
Maybe I'll just go and see if that jogs my memory.
