Getting ahead on household duties for next week. Not sure how crazy my work week will be. Chopped up the rest of the fire wood and stacked them. Rearranged my desk again. Feels better. Still working on the area. Planning to have a fire tonight.

Spent the morning outside in the backyard maintaining the pool and pest control. The Voles destroyed my grass area and now ripping up the plant beds.  Got a call from the new job to come in and pickup the equipment and badge. Excited to start.

My stationary supplies arrived today! Koala Perspective Grid Sketch Book, Sarasa dry & Sarasa Grand pens. The ink in Sarasa dry is great, dries instantly. No more smears for Sinclair. Sarasa Grand is a metal pen that has a good weight that didn’t break the bank. The only  matter in question was the 0.5mm cartridge. Ink is good but I prefer a 0.4mm tip. So I pulled out an ink cartridge from one of the Sarasa dry pens and installed it into the Grand. I think this is a great combo for my personal preferences. I will play arround with the Koala Perspective Grid Sketch book and see how I like it. This is my first time using this type of gridded paper. It will be fun trying this format out.

Spent the day doing house hold chores. Managed to play some Animal Crossing and went swimming with the kids before sunset. After a quick shower we did our nightly reading. Eldest reads to me and I read to the youngest. It’s a great night cap to end the day.

Got things done today. Everything on my todo list completed. Fell into the rabbit hole of fine writing instruments, office supplies and art products imported from Japan and Europe. Ordered a few quick drying pens for work and journal writing.

Had a lazy Sunday. I have been pretty lazy for the past few days. Just played games with the kids and watched tv. Written up a todo list for tomorrow. Need to get back on track. Have things to get done by next week before I start work.

Had a nice relaxing day. Morning rain kept me in playing Animal Crossing with the family. We played way too long and hardly got anything done today. It was nice to have the whole family together for so long in one place.

Enjoyed the warm weather today. Helped the kids with school work and did my normal house cleaning. Went swimming in the pool teaching the kids on some skin diving technics. Kids are still full of energy. Will need to incorporate some bike riding at the park.

Had a relaxing morning. Got the kids ready for school and enjoyed a nice breakfast watching tv. Worked on getting my USB-C display to work with my Surface Pro. Still having issues with the dock 2. Using an adapter to get arround it. Swam with the kids after dinner.
