Health update:

Went to the nurse yesterday. My iron levels managed to be LOWER than last time despite iron tablets AND more iron in my diet. I DON'T EVEN. She said at least they're kind of staying the same, though, and not as horrifically bad as they were two years ago, so that's good??

Over the weekend, I learnt to make temari. I like them, but I don't think I'll make them often. I also learnt to cross stitch - mum is making me start small and work my way up, which is frustrating, but I will persevere!

I did this because I found a design Jackie would like, and I jokingly said to her that if I started it now, I'd probably have it done by her birthday (March). I regaled this tale to mum, and she asked me if I wanted to do it, and I said I wouldn't mind. But it's quite big, so mum said I should start with a small design to see how I liked it. I did a lizard (which there's a bad photo of on my twitter, and there's going to be a better one soon).

Anyway, the upshot is that now I am eyeing pixel art and wondering what to do next (probably a Togepi because why not).

The last episode of River was on last night, and honestly I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be thinking. I mean, at the end of the day, not a lot has changed. The lead didn't change, he's still an existentially sad man who may or may not be crazy.

( spoilers?? )

I mean it could totally just be me. There's probably people who did enjoy it. I'd say give it a go if you're thinking about it because you might like it more than I did.
