Hey, this is my Now page. I first ran into the idea through Derek Sivers.

Books I am Reading:
Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards

Finished that and am working on the Workbook version slowly.

Various stories and new authors’ writing on Royal Road

The Wok by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt (turns out I am great with a wok, but slow to cook myself new recipes)

Facing Aging, Illness, and Death by Thanissarro Bhikku

Other stuff:

Cashew is doing fantastic. Better and better since I figured out he needed a drop of Valerian Root with a meal to calm his stomach. Highly recommend if you have a cat that gets sick often.

For fitness I am still getting above 10k steps most days. Doing squats, pull ups, farmer carries, dip assistance exercises, ATG split squats. Noticeable increases in my flexibility and digestion from twists in yoga and static stretching. Mainly from versions of Matsyendrasana.

My diabetic health is still in shambles. It has only gotten worse. It has gone from difficult to get insulin to difficult to get any of the other supplies from providers. I expect the medical negligence around me to lead to my death.
