Sharing my planner

journalsandplannersHi! I'm new here! A little late but sharing pics of my planner, it's a custom pre-printed from So Typical Me (as I said in a comment here, I'm a creative person trapped in a body that can't draw for s*** so I like preprinted, though I'm sad at the same layout EVERY week. Oh well)

Mar. 22nd, 2026 06:41 amangrbodaMy room is so nearly finished now that Husband has ticked it off his list as done. The cupboard doors went on yesterday, and I'm putting in the shelves as I put things inside them. We're probably going to have to go back and get the remaining two shelves that I initially thought I didn't want, though. I thought, with the layout, they would be too difficult to reach to be useful, but I no longer think this is true. Not urgent, though.
Nearly all my belongings are back in here now. There are still a few things in the lounge, but they will have to wait until I've got these boxes sorted out. It's all quite chaotic.
What remains to be done in here is just some details, like hanging pictures and such. There is also a shelf I want put back up on the wall, which Husband offered to put up for me today. It depends on how far I can get with the chaos already in here. Again, I need to deal with the current chaos before there's room for adding more chaos. I also want to get a cork board and a new bin (blue plastic from the mid-90s is frankly no longer doing it for me in my room of grey and purple!) but I haven't been looking at those yet.
These cupboards have given me so much more storage space than I had before, and they are large enough that I can have the sewing machine, the iron and the big sewing box actually put away and not hanging around on any available surface or the floor. It also makes it seem like I have more free floor space, but I'm pretty certain that's an illusion.
There's a weird empty space in the lounge behind the sofa now, though.
No pictures yet, because so much chaos!

2026 Cherry Blossoms
Mar. 21st, 2026 10:13 pmlovelyangel Tom McCall Waterfront Park • Portland, Oregon March 21, 2026 Nikon Z8 • Minolta MD Tele Rokkor-X 135mm f/2.8 f/5.6 @ 135mm • 1/250s • ISO 200 |
My news sources indicated that the cherry trees on the waterfront were in bloom, so I made plans to visit and get some pictures. I had volunteer work commitment for my church that took my entire afternoon Friday, extending into this morning. Everything this morning ran late.
My plan was to use my vintage Minolta MD Tele Rokkor-X 135mm f/2.8 lens on my newest camera, the Nikon Z8. I had forgotten exactly what I did in 2023, when I ran this experiment on my Nikon Z6. I had to do some research. In the process, I configured the Z8 to use focus peaking with yellow highlights, like the Z6 does. I also configured the Z8 to recognize the Minolta lens. EXPEED 7 allows the camera to learn a name for the old, non-CPU lens, the focal length, and the maximum aperture. That information gets passed to the image EXIF data. Much nicer than the null fields that get supplied by the Z6.

Mar. 21st, 2026 11:30 pmcornerofmadnessI wanted so much to go for a hike but I couldn't because a) no one I usually hike with could b) my bad knee is being stupid.
So instead I was going to go shopping in Chillicothe but also I wanted to write. So I stopped at my usual coffee house for a Marshmallow Chick latte (meh, not very strong flavors ah well) got a lot written. Got to Chillicothe, still wanted to write so I went to that new coffee shop in the place where I was going for years. It was bad last time when they were just first starting but they did pick it up and it was much better this time.
I got some crosstrainers! I needed new sneakers in the worst way and I I hate shopping for shoes especially with my weird feet. I am very happy.
Got stuff at Aldi's and I must face the fact my fridge is nothing but cheese, salami and prosciutto so what shall I do about this? Eat a lot of cheese.
Got a few things at TJ Maxx including a few things for Rocket.
Also I went to Ollie's and did something I've never done before. I dropped something and broke it. That was embarrassing. It was cute solar power light (which I ended up not buying any because that would be all I thought about).
No science this Saturday other than this entry for Women's history. I didn't learn this theory in school but I HAVE taught it since I came to my university. I had no idea it was a woman's theory that had been ignored and belittled for years and now it's science canon (at least for now since science does evolve) But DNA has proven her right about mitochondria being bacterial. Anyhow meet Lynn Margulis
Watching something on Hallmark Mystery that is just plain awful. I was excited for something new Nelly Knows Mystery. The acting is bad, the plot ludicrous, good lord. The detective barely knows what he's doing and a uniformed officer seems to be in command (unless she's the sheriff? I have no idea because it's too dumb to pay attention to

New to dreamwidth!
Mar. 22nd, 2026 10:42 ammesona posting in addmeName: Mint
Age: 22
I mostly post about: Daily life and hobby updates
My hobbies are: I enjoy Vocaloid music, Vtubers, Anime/manga, literature, birdwatching, knitting and crochet, playing rhythm games. I'm also a programmer and may bring up tech stuff occasionally. I'm learning to draw.
My fandoms are: Current hyperfixation is NBA (go Nuggets). I keep up with F1 casually. I follow paleontology and aviation news. Currently reading JJBA, Chainsaw Man, slowly watching Dark Winds. Check my About Me sticky for the full list of stuff.
I'm looking to meet people who: Are also writing personal journals and forming community. Besides that, people who write or read more structured content. Such as personal journal, hobby updates, recipes, guides, media reviews, short stories. Bonus if you're posting outside of America (I'm from Southeast Asia myself).
My posting schedule tends to be: Few times a week.
When I add people, my dealbreakers are: Obviously don't be bigoted, though I assume most people on this site aren't. Probably won't come up often, but I'm not a big fan of people who post inflammatory or reactionary takes.
Before adding me, you should know: I will probably be posting about experiences with mental/physical health stuff, as I am AuDHD and am working through cPTSD. It won't be my main topic, but just a heads up that some of my posts will be heavy, and they'll have a content warning if they are.
Daily Happiness
Mar. 21st, 2026 08:01 pmtorachan1. It's still supposed to be unseasonably warm next week, but today seems to be a little break in the weather. When I went out for my walk this morning, it was a bit foggy (though it had burned off by the time I got home), and then while it was sunny for a while midday, around 2pm it got overcast again and has stayed that way. It was really foggy again when we took our walk tonight, too.
2. I made a rhubarb pie earlier and we're going to have some of that for dessert. We still have a bunch of baggies of chopped rhubarb in the freezer from when we were buying it from the farmers market last year lol.
3. Ollie loves to snuggle on my clothes. :)

Torrent Watch Party!
Mar. 21st, 2026 06:54 pmolivermossToday has not been a good day for Seattle sports, but the watch party was fun. I wasn't the only one who got there early for the merch pop up. Most of the shirts and hoodies were only in the less-popular sizes, lotta XXLs. They did have a t shirt in my size, and it was 100% a return. I paid the full price of [redacted] for a t shirt that has definitely been worn and also washed by someone else before. But, they had it so I got it.
I'm also glad I went early because the patio the event was on did run out of seating. People were standing next to the TV to the left of this shot:
The pop up had a Jackson jersey and I was good and did not buy my first hockey jersey. I am not buying a Jackson jersey unless they get a start or Seattle resigns them, in which was I'll be sad that I didn't get an inaugural jersey.
(CJ Jackson is openly NB, and a 3rd goalie for Seattle. I really want a jersey of Seattle's NB goalie, but no, not unless they stay in Seattle next year)
There was a girl there who said she was 'very new to hockey', but her clothes were in all Torrent colors, her handmade jewelry was in Torrent colors, she has a Torrent itabag and she'd made 'trinkets' to hand out, glass pendants she'd made in Torrent colors.
Pendant and also event swag:
Torrent have a lot of momentum. They sell out areas nearly 3x the size of the Boston Fleet's home arena. I really hope the team do just a little better to not lose some of that support.

Weekly Reading
Mar. 21st, 2026 05:06 pmtorachanRecently Finished
Lucky Stiff
Third book in the Lillian Byrd murder mystery series.
The Cartographers
When the MC's father dies, she finds an old road map in his things, the source of a massive fight years ago that resulted in him cutting ties with her and blackballing her from the cartography world. In trying to figure out why her father would have kept the map, she learns about not only the secrets of the map itself, but about her parents. I enjoyed this but it was very slow for the first half or so.
The Hanging Tree
A woman goes on a writing retreat at a remote manor and learns of a local legend about a young woman who was hanged as a witch on the property and decides that's what she wants her next book to be about. The book is told in dual timelines with the present being about her research and the past being the actual events. I liked this, but there was way too much romance focus in both the past and present.
Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant?
Graphic novel about the author's relationship with her parents, especially focused on caring for them in their final years. I really liked this a lot.
Huda F Cares? and Huda F Wants to Know?
Second and third books in the Huda F series of YA graphic novels about a very religious Muslim teen loosely based on the author's life. I continue to enjoy this series.
Hatsukoi no Tsugi vol. 3
Final volume in this companion series to Koi-iji. I liked this a lot.

10trueloves: loss
Mar. 21st, 2026 06:32 pmsenmutAO3 Link | Distraction from Grief (200 words) by Merfilly
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Birds of Prey
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Sandra Wu-San, Dinah Lance
Additional Tags: Double Drabble, +Modern Age (1986-Present), Post-Crisis, [Birds of Prey Vol. 1 - 1999-2009]
Summary:
Move. Evaluate. Decide. Commit.
Shiva was making her work through her grief for Sensei in the way that mattered, now that they had foiled Cheshire's plan. Both of them excelled in the Arts, but the difference was being felt in every muscle, joint, and tendon as Dinah worked through the spar.
Shiva was a master, effortless in blending her many forms to always meet any rally that Dinah made, preventing Dinah from winning. Yet, Dinah also recognized that Shiva was having to rely on that blending to keep the upper hand.
In a formal, single style spar, Dinah and Shiva would likely be evenly matched.
Like this?
Dinah had to smile, a genuine one, to be pushed so far, so hard, so long.
Was that what Shiva had been waiting for? As the next move saw Dinah on the mats and Shiva pinning her, full length, hand in knife-strike pose at her throat.
"You choose life, not dwelling on death," Shiva purred, and damned if that didn't make Dinah remember other aspects of living that were worthwhile.
"Care to live a little with me, grab a hot soak, some good food?"
"Sensualist."
And yet, they moved together in that plan.

2. The Dental visit went well - for the most part nothing has changed. I do have bleeding gums/sensitive gums - but that's a result of medication and diabetes, and possibly coeliac disease. Hence the reason, I'm seeing a dentist every six months now, as opposed to one every two or three years, like I had previously. (I don't get cavities. But alas, there are other things.) The dental hygienist's head came to my waist. I met her and thought okay, Latin America or Southeast Asia, they grow them tiny south of the equator. I don't know why some people are very tall and some are very short. I am not a biologist or geneticist. I think she had to be four foot?
I'm almost 6 foot. She also either had a frontal lisp, it was the mask, or a heavy accent with the mask - muffled her speech. I had to listen closely to what she was saying and ask at various intervals. (I'm used to doing this - I've done it my entire life - since I naturally mishear things. Also, having grown up with a speech issue which took me about twenty-five years to overcome, and sucking at languages - I'm patient with folks, more so than most. You won't survive in NYC if you aren't?)
Afterwards - I over taxed my knees by wandering to and from grocery stores and stores along Court Street. Managed to pick up various GF pre-prepared foods and items, such as Feel Goods: Vegetable Egg Rolls, Soup Dumplings, and Mozzarella Sticks, GF Deli SourDough Seeded Bread, Gluten Free Pizza,
GF Ravioli, GF Biscuits, GF Clam Chowder, GF Chicken Vegetable Soup (Hale and Hearty)...among other things. It was a haul - so heavier than intended.
I didn't get sweets - or baked goods at least, outside of some chocolate sandwich cookies. Icing my knee now.
It's slightly warmer today - made it up to 58 degrees and 60 in some locals. As a result, small children have been playing noisily in the backyards behind me, screaming as only small children cas. Brings back memories of my own childhood - when I had a sprawling backyard, no fences, and woods that seemed to stretch for acres behind us (it didn't - I was small).
3. Still enjoying my book - I actually look forward to reading it - and consider doing it instead of other things. And think, no let's draw this out. Why I love it and haven't been able to get into other books (some admittedly better written) is beyond me? I think it's that this one has a writing style and trope that I'm craving at the moment?

I'm a queer fanfiction writer and a cat mom. My pronouns are she, they. I've been writing since 1998 and I've been writing consistently and mostly fanfic since 2009. Except for the occasional canon divergent gedankenexperiment, I strictly write canon-compliant—preferably sequels, but I've also written quite a number of prequels and fanfics that close the gaps in the source material. Being autistic makes me extremely monotropic in my interests and I keep them for a long time. Therefore, YOI is only the second fandom I'm writing fanfic for.
I'm migrating from tumblr because I don't vibe with the overall atmosphere there.
I read queer books and SFF. My taste in music comprises hard rock, metal, generally '80s, and classic music. And I watch a lot of anime.
