Goodnight friends! Alternating hours of murky solid grey cloud with frequent bursts of drizzle and ghostly, half-clear whitish skies stained by hints of sunset orange. Quite a bit warmer, just about 10°c but still enough blustery wind to make it feel harshly cold and unwelcoming.

Still at least a bit of recovery needed from hosting my siblings yesterday, and some very welcome long slow hours in bed. I brightened up enough to eventually to do a few stretches and feel somewhat on the ball with the TTRPG group.

May we find a renewed sense of curiosity and wonder at the world around us today!
