I'm reading Vaslav Nijinsky's diary from
I'm reading Vaslav Nijinsky's diary from the late 1910s as he descended into madness. It's breathtakingly beautiful and very trying.
I am making time for project again. It had stalled for sometime due to other commitments.
Today, I learned C++ and Qt lifetimes, the advantages of member initializer lists. I still have one more issue to fix w.r.t this topic but I will hold it off a little longer, switching my focus on adding features.

Journal Week 2, January 2026
Well, that second week, the first full one of 2026, became a snowy mess! We started to be bothered by snow the previous weekend, and this week, it only got worse. I could not go out with Skoosh, as I didn't want to risk damaging her in the crazy weather conditions. So, I have been doing all my exercises at home, the ones I could do there, that is. I have visited the supermarket a few times on foot, all very challenging. And I listened to a lot of "water" with the MyNoise app, to try and calm my mind. My brain was not dealing too well with the break of routine. I had some decent nights, but also some very bad ones. I can't wait for the snow to sod off... I know next week will be different as well, as I will be taking Bas home on Wednesday then, due to mum's surgery on Thursday. So... This week was cold and shitty, but I still did my best to make it through OK enough... Snow, cold, snow... Ugh... Can't the effing snow just sod off and give me back my normal routine again! Puh-leeze! Quick links to the days of the week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday.In case you are writing a or do you also read the journal from time to time or do you just get the stuff out of your mind on paper and then be done with it

Buongiorno. We haven't had snow in Venice for ages. It's not as much as it was 30 years ago. But the children are certainly building snow gondoliers on the Riva. Saluti, Mafalda Cinquetti from

Journal Week 53/1, December 2025/January 2026
The last week of 2025, the first one of 2026... Endings and beginnings. Memories, good and bad. Grief over the ones we lost. Hope for the things to come. Some excitement maybe, if all goes well... 2025 wasn't the best year for me at all. I endured too much, and I wasn't able to handle it fully. I am still here, but I am not doing all that well. I have reached out for help, which should start early next month (February). I had to start the new year on my own... Well, I was with my parents, but I drove home all alone, for the first time in many years, and it hurt me so much... If all goes well, we should hopefully have some good news around the 25th... Until then, there is hope... And some preparations getting started, just in case... Some winter weather is here, colder days, colder nights, and maybe some rain or even snow... Well..... This image, made on Monday morning, didn't reflect the bad weather we'd be having, not at all! On Friday things were slippery, as some snow started to fall. On Saturday, it started snowing a lot more than they first thought. More snow on Sunday, and more snow expected the next week, which isn't mentioned in this image yet... It was a cold and slippery start of the new year. Quick links to the days of the week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday.2026/01/05

"When we invite people to dinner at our apartment, we ask them to come at seven and all but suggest that they leave by nine. One of us will joke that this is the time I start to drool, but the real reason is that from nine on I can no longer take part in a conversation." Calvin Tomkins for The New Yorker
