daily slice-of-life photo blog of a Gen-X dad
I finished my Muji notebook and have started on this Maruman notebook for my morning pages. It’s so satisfying to finish a notebook!
The Maruman has been used for random work notes so it’s already half done. Shouldn’t take too long to finish it and clear more clutter. Go me.
I’m nearing the end of my current notebook that I use for my morning pages. I think a couple more weeks and it will be time to move on to the next one!
My Lenovo laptop that sits by the bed is alive again. For some reason, the charger wasn’t working and the laptop eventually had to take a rest. But the power brick seems to have sorted itself out and is now operational. Anyway, I like using the laptop to tidy up my daily journal each night. It’s a nice routine before climbing into bed. I’m glad the laptop is back.
We finally purchased a self-cleaning kitty litter box! Everyone we know who has one has describer theirs as “life-changing”. Now that we’ve used it for a few days, I can agree wholeheartedly! We bought the PETKIT PuraMax, which is the same model our friend has. It’s so nice! I love the app too, which tells you when each cat makes a visit (you set each cat’s weight), for how long, and what their current weight is. I know it’s weird, but I am mildly obsessed with their potty activity now. 😆
Just a two-miler
Back to the healthy habit
My legs will be sore
Today’s run was very short because it was drizzling a bit. I didn’t enjoy it as much as usual, but the fresh air was nice and definitely needed. 😄
Two additions to my stationery aresenal: Fuyu-Syogun ink and a Kakuno EF nib fountain pen. I’ve come to the conclusion that my Pilot Metropolitan fountain pens are my favorite and most comfortable for writing my Morning Pages, but I wanted to try out an EF (extra-fine) nib. It isn’t available on the Metropolitan body, but fortunately can be found on the Kakuno line of pens, whose nibs are interchangeable with the Metropolitans. I can’t wait to try out the EF nib… but not sure if I will swap it out onto a Metropolitan just yet…
I also bought some grey fountain pen ink, which I’ve wanted for a long time. I loaded up my broad-nib Lamy Safari with the ink and it looks fantastic! Subtle and sophisticated, but also kind of playful. I love it so much!
