Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (50/46)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - did some timing changes to the overhead bit.  Looks more natural...but the waves still need work.  Used filters to make some roundness.  The waves just nag at me.

In the interim - got the laundry done.  More sleeplessness, thanks to cat insisting on stomping on me.  He is not losing weight I tell you what.

Overall - more tired, more sleeping.

See you tomorrow.

April 5, 2026 (Sunday)

Drinking (Yes/No) No (49/46)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - more work on the background to the cambot close-up.  And I think that is finished.  Looks pretty good.  Did a bunch more work on the various bits of this sequence...looking like progress.

In the interim - wanted to do the laundry, but the app can't find the washer (!?).  Bundled all the stuff into the car and will get quarters tomorrow and go to the other laundry.

Overall - slept really badly last night, but managed to get the Sunday stuff done early.  Cold and rainy today.  Great phone call.

See you tomorrow.

Drinking (Yes/No) No (49/45)

Creative work - very little.  Few tweaks here and there.

In the interim -  really sick after last night.  Barely left the house.

Overall - very tired, too.

See you tomorrow.

April 3, 2026 (Friday)

Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (49/44)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - working on the new side-view camera droid.  Imported it into Flash.  Did some animation with them.

In the interim -  well, woke up feeling not-too-great, as expected...but it passed pretty quickly.

Overall - would have liked a No but what the heck, right?

See you tomorrow.

April 2, 2026 (Thursday)

Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (48/44)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - working more on the two transition bits. Doing more detail work.  Overall a fairly productive day.  When you add more highlights it always looks better.

In the interim -  made an appointment to discuss retirement options next Tuesday.  Bought the wireless HDMI thing (it was inevitable).  Also, that Yes...well, it wasn't inevitable.  But it happened.

Overall - mostly a good day...really good, after all.  But then that Yes.

See you tomorrow.

April 1, 2026 (Wednesday)

 Drinking (Yes/No) No (47/44)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - work on some bridging bits.

In the interim -  got what I assume is the last paycheck.  Paid all the bills for the month.  Got up early and bought gas, not because I needed to, just to keep what's in the tank circulating.  Backup done, finally.  Met a nice YouTuber on my walk and subscribed to his channel.

Overall - really tired all day.  But got another No.

See you tomorrow.

March 31, 2026 (Tuesday)

 Drinking (Yes/No) No (47/43)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - nothing today, then backup and installation below took up most of the PC's resources.

In the interim -  finished the backup, then decided to install the Vegas upgrade since it's not owned by a different company,  This took several hours.  Still do do the disk imaging.

Overall - tired a lot today.  Very little appetite.

See you tomorrow.
