I had some car issues which turned out to be less severe to fix than I thought - after the mechanic at my car dealer gave me a list (they’re hopelessly overcrowded with appointments unfortunately), I made an online appointment consultation and the independent workshop might soon confirm it. Good, as I only intend to drive my current car for two more years before upgrading.

In cooler news, I got myself an Xbox Series X on a Friday the 13th and everything went smoothly! Setting it up was a pretty fast affair, downloading my games is what took me the longest 😅 Already played for a few hours, it’s nice to get back into regular gaming. I think games of any kind - be it board, card or video games - are a nice distraction from everyday troubles and a welcome challenge and stimulus for our brains.
