Arts & Crafts
This week, I put together a JM Bricklayer Orchid plant. It's pretty cute. I recently decided regular plant care is not something I'm into, but I like the colour they add, so I thought some cute fake ones are a good idea.
I also assembled an owl made of flowers.
Decluttering & Minimalism
I'm super unmotivated on this right now. This, I suspect, is due to having had a busy summer and wanting to just catch my breath. I have made a list of all the home projects I want to get done this fall once the cooler weather has arrived.
I've updated my Trello to-do list. It had been a while, so this was sorely needed. It felt good to scratch some items off the list. I moved some outstanding items to a fresh action card and closed off the others. Sometimes a digital declutter is necessary.
Gaming & Streaming
I thought about getting back to streaming this weekend, but it would've been forced and rushed. And there's no reason I need to rush to get back to it.

Lifestyle & Sports
This week I attended the first curling event of the season with Rainbow Rockers. My plan is to spare this year to continue learning and to get to know more people. I found it a bit heavy to be in multiple leagues last year. Getting Started League Level 2 begins on October 1st. Next week I'll get my gear out and ensure my grippers are clean and ready for the new season.
Saturday was the banquet for softball. It was so nice to celebrate with my team and other friends around the league. I won the Most Improved Peach (Player) award. I started the season unable to play, but came anyway to cheer my team on and help out when I could. By the end of the season, I was hitting regularly, making some good catches at home plate, and I even got some runs. I'm proud of what I accomplished and I loved being on a team that was so full of heart.

Music & Songwriting
I have resubscribed to Fender Play in the ukulele path. Now that softball is pretty much done, I have been setting myself up for the new season. I'm going to start back at the beginning because I don't remember any of it and concentrated repetition is helpful with learning anything.
Reading & Writing
With softball over and the weather cooling, my brain feels like it can focus on my projects more. I think I need to try and outline the rest of my screenplay to move it forward. I really don't know what I want to do or say currently. I only have a vague idea that is mostly shrouded in murkyness. It's quite frustrating. This may be a time for tools like Rory's Story Cubes and the Writer Emergency Pack cards.
