[18/100] days of productivity
Did a lot of reading. I'm almost finished with Babysitter by Joyce Carol Oates. Such a "traumatic" read, so dark and uncomfortable, but beautifully written. Worked on my Substack. Then went for a little walk at the park.

Brushing up my French skills with this book by Michèle Thomasson. It is a little collection of his journal entries. I think I can manage, little by little. Low commitment, but effective.
