    Not great, unfortunately. Traveling this weekend in order to work on estate issues for a deceased relative. No time to cook, no veggie snacks, no yoghurt-making, etc.

    I am surprised by how it’s not easier to meet my objectives. I do a lot on my own anyway and some of my objectives are not so easy to do when one is very busy, such as making my own DIY household product each day. As somebody working everyday on a climate change project (ppmgame.org), I thought crushing these challenges would be a breeze.
