This morning, I headed to my local Urgent Care to get some swelling and redness in my leg checked out. The staff there took a look and were concerned enough to send me over to the ER for same-day bloodwork and treatment.

So, I ended up spending a couple of hours at the ER. The good news is that after an hour and a half, I got a diagnosis: cellulitis. It’s what we all suspected, so at least that wasn’t a surprise. I’ve now got a prescription for antibiotics, and I’m really hoping they kick in quickly so I can get back to my regular life.

Lately, I’ve been enjoying going for walks in the neighborhood while listening to audiobooks. It’s so relaxing and fun. Highly recommend! And I also can recommend Shokz headphones. They are really comfy and safe for running/walking since they don’t block your ear canal, so you can hear traffic and other potential hazards.

I bought a small HEPA air filter for my home office because I’ve been dealing with allergies for the past few weeks. I’m trying to reduce airborne allergens, including pet dander, and I hope it helps. At the very least, it can’t hurt. Plus, it’s cute!

I recently bought a monthly paper planner to explore the world of non-digital planning. Right now, I’m figuring out how it integrates with my digital planning and journaling. To start, I plan to use it for tracking upcoming vacations and noting small wins throughout the day. While researching, I found it interesting that many people use paper planners as a logbook for reflection, while digital planners focus on future events. That approach makes sense to me, so I’m curious to see how my system evolves!

I tidied up the office and rearranged some items. It’s starting to come together, but there’s still plenty to do! Next up is decluttering and clearing desk space. Honestly, it’s both fun and satisfying!
