God of Somewhere Else, me and Snap's RP world. It's ancient and decaying, it blessed humans with the ability to take animal forms, and damned itself in trying to make beings in its own image. It's in a constant state of self destruction.

Such a lovely day today! This week has been the hardest work week to get through for me in a little while, not because I really did much more than usual but just because I was so freaking tired the whole time and focus was hard to come by. But today I got to work from home, which rarely happens but timing couldn't have been better.

🌌 lovely morning run, made so much better by the sun and warmth after a few days of grim weather. Didn't feel too good when I set off but got into it more with each mile and ended up with a nice little progression

🌌 first breakfast on the balcony for this year I think?! Finally! There's a massive construction site across the road from our house which has made the balcony a lot less enjoyable, but they're finally quieting down a bit. Was perfect getting to sit in the cool morning air today, and with a special breakfast too

🌌 lunch was very aesthetic today too, a rare day with two photographed meals

🌌 afternoon coffee and planning my lab work for next week, and finally feeling a bit more caught up on everything after a productive day

🌌 (not pictured) making dinner with a nice lil drink

Happy things lately. Skiing on the weekends is exhausting because it means doing absolutely everything else during the week after work; and for the first few weeks of the year we were building out our van in the evenings as well, and work was the most stressful it has ever been with the final weeks before our revision deadline for our paper. That deadline was on the first day of our holiday, and we "finished" the van the week after - it's not done but it's done enough to use without worrying about damaging stuff by sleeping in it, and we were both exhausted from the constant work, so we decided to leave it be until spring. The past two weeks since then have still been pretty full on catching up on all the things I didn't do in that time, plus the normal chaos of life, but I feel like I'm slowly coming back to myself and to feeling stronger again. Waking up a little earlier and meditating, starting to journal again, keeping a gratitude list again, and most importantly having some time to rest have altogether made a huge difference and I don't constantly feel like I'm dying anymore. So that's great 🤣 and in the end even though it's exhausting a lot of the time and I was really struggling for a while it does feel worth it - doing both the PhD and the outdoorsy stuff.

So now that I've caught up on the holiday waffle, here's a little general life update

🌌 we bought a van yesterday! This concludes a 2-month epic of searching, going to see vans, calling sales people, making decisions. URGH. I'm SO relieved to be done!! And this one fits ALL of our criteria and more, so even though it was a tiny bit above budget we feel really good about it. After selling our car this summer (he was falling apart lol poor old deric) we were initially going to buy a car again, but at some point realised that with what we do with it - largely driving reasonably short distances to the mountains and sleeping in the car - a van makes a lot more sense. So here's to this baby making our next ski season a looot easier than the last :D picking him

🌌 also got a lovely cycle in to get there - took the train there and then cycled back after we finished, the weather was perfect and the route we plotted in 5 mins before leaving was actually amazing

🌌 celebrated with a bbq on our balcony and (non-alcoholic, see below haha) cocktails and it was perfect

🌌 went on a retreat with my institute last week, which marked the end of a lot of stressful work things - it's great doing different things like conferences, teaching, some taught courses etc and I like having the variety, but they also make keeping up with the "actual" work aka lab work and data analysis and stuff more stressful, and after months of a lot of different things I'm quite ready to just spend some time putting my head down and working. The retreat itself was stressful because I have social anxiety and these things always are for me but it was also pretty fun. Had more alcohol in two days than I normally do in two months though haha hence the non-alcoholic cocktails, I need a break I'm too old for this 🤣

🌌 (I'm not sure the emoji fits here but) I broke my foot last week... getting out of the shower. Whyyyyy. I walked into the bathroom cupboard corner, basically, and broke my foot where the little toe attaches. It didn't hurt that much in the moment so I thought I'd just stubbed it but 15 mins later it was swollen, bruised and hurt so much I literally could not focus on anything else o.o

🌌 we had plans to go outdoor climbing the next day and I'd been looking forward to it sooo much so we went anyway - at that point I thought I'd broken the toe, which I've done before, so I took some painkillers, taped the toe to the one next to it and stuffed it into my least aggressive climbing shoes. Still hurt quite a lot but I actually had a really good time climbing with two leads and some seconds :) and we went to a new place which was the best place we've found here yet! And it's super easy to get to so I'm really excited to go back there.

🌌 the next day I found out I'd not broken the toe but the base of my foot but it doesn't really change anything - nothing to be done about it but rest it as much as possible. The retreat wasn't ideal for that obv but I've been trying. Cycling is fine although I can't wear cleats yet, climbing is a no-go for a while 😔 sad times but it could've been worse. It's already improving, the first few days walking was so fucking painful haha. You never notice how much you use something until it breaks 🤣

🌌 today was spent doing absolutely nothing in an attempt to recover from... all of the above, really, and it was glorious. Grey and rainy out so the perfect day for it as well
