05 dec 2022 / the beginning --- This is my first phlog, just testing it out! A day of work ahead. Slept badly, hopefully I can focus enough and finish a boring task so I can move on to more exciting stuff. Tonight: Gnocci on the menu with crisps. Amazing, I can't wait. Hopefully with a fun movie. --- edit The gnocci was good, we watched a show where influencers move to LA for six weeks and become au pairs. It was fun, I was sad that it had become late quickly and we all had to go to bed. I am happy and proud I got my gopher up and running today. It distracted me from my tedious task. I thought I wouldn't be able to focus at all today, but near the end of the day I used my timer and I was able to catch up. We are talking about the heating a lot. All three of us have a different opinion on it I think. One prefers warmer heating because of an aching body, the other finds heat difficult to handle over-stimulating. I instinctively would like the heating to at least be turned very low in the night, otherwise I don't care much. (I haven't voiced my wish for the low heat in the night, because I don't think the others want it to be warm after we've all gone to bed.) Our rent used to have electric and gas included, but our landlord decided in the spring we would have to start paying it independently. We are nervous, but I think we are doing very good. I want my friends to be warm, and we are getting compensation from the government in the winter months. Sometimes I don't think I notice the cold, because I'm not used to central heating. But I don't know ... Sometimes I think I'm too scared of being wasteful.
