Rocked: two hour conversation with someone I haven't chatted to since new year - was really cool
Sucked: Christmas holiday cancelled, best friend facing possible paralysis and not allowed visitors in hospital, half term coming up like they haven't already had 6 months off school as it is
Rocked: news of a possible vaccine in the works. Mass testing being offered to our county. Curry for dinner. Everywhere outside looks lovely in the early winter weather. Wine.
Sucked: best friend still in hospital. Thought I saw a bear in the woods but it was just a Newfoundland with a big butt. Couldn't zoom with a friend today. Xbox not here yet. Ran out of wine.
Kids back at school and after 1 day of tears they are loving it again and its good to see them get some normality back in their lives. My youngest has spent over 1/3 of her life in lockdown so far and nice for her to get out.
Managed to fit in a little gaming time and made some progress on Valheim.
Nicer weather is around the corner and looking forward to spring and finally getting my garden sorted.
Seem to have fixed some crashes I was having on my desktop.
Sucked
Still a way to go before life gets anywhere close to 'normal'.
Going to have to spend a lot of money this year to get work done in and around the house.
Also need some new tires for my car.
Staff returning to office at work... I was enjoying working alone.
Finding lots of music to listen to lately that I havent heard in ages after we took the plunge and purchased Spotify Duo.
Good to see some discussions happening on the boards and excited to see what happens here in the future.
Game Pass has been adding some really good games lately.
Sucked
Most of the really good Game Pass games arent available on PC version of Game Pass... we pay the same price...
For the first time since I was around 5 years old there is only 1 gaming console in my house (Nintendo Switch). In the last few months I have sold 2 Xbox Ones, my PS4, my N64, a PSP & my Sega Mega Drive Classic. Doesnt feel right to have that empty space under the TV...
Quite a few friends have been told they might be losing their jobs soon thanks to the pandemic (not at my workplace).
I'm consistently profitable with my trades. I've made 4000$ this week. Better than any savings account I'm putting my money to work.
Bought a bench and weights, a bike and ordered a 3080 10G graphics card. So my home life is serene.
Going to the lake with my bud and we're going to be kayaking for the weekends.
Started a youtube channel with no views really but a fun vlog to make.
Sucked
Left 7000$ on the table with my last trade have to remember to tie in my trades.
Back at my mothers house after selling my condo.
Inflation is skyrocketing and we are entering a world shortage of commodities.
So many games to play at the moment im spoilt for choice
Managed to enjoy 2 BBQ's last week
Had a relaxing week off considering
Hoping to start getting some more frequent gaming time soon
Sucked
Had planned to go to beach last week but my father in law was rushed into hospital on Saturday night and didnt get out until Thursday so my week off was mainly spent taking clothes and essentials over to him
Weather was great all of my week off and only managed to fit in 3 beers all week and no real gaming time at all
Got a little gaming time in for first time in ages
Steam Summer Sale is coming soon
Weather is improving again
So many games to play and so many interesting ones coming too
Sucked
Technology issues, my headset splitter has broken so have had to use Discord voice chat over my phone
Still not enough time in a week to fit in all the games I need to make progress on
Money has been a little tight so not been able to get as much work done in the garden as I wanted yet and unlikely to get much in the summer sale. Tempted by Horizon Zero Dawn before the sale even starts as its 40% off.
Hurt my knee about a month ago and its still not right now and some days im hobbling around on it
Youngest son enjoyed his birthday yesterday to the point where he broke character and actually hugged me of his own accord
Middle son has pretty much been accepted by the other kids/teens in the new high school age group he's joined. When he speaks, instead of mocking him, they quieten down and listen.
Pay day has occured and now I have money
Off to Liverpool for a couple of days with youngest and eldest
Sucked:
Its stupid o'clock and I'm not sleeping well these days
Eldest is going to fleece me, somehow, even though it's not her birthday we're celebrating in Liverpool
Doctor too busy to give me my much needed MRI results until September
