Wth it looks like that account is mostly about interacting with other people about personal interests in an enthusiastic and healthy way, and rarely about making cheesy jokes on the main timeline. Some people just don't understand social media!

Yeah man, Twitter is for pointing out Nazis and nothing else!

Nah, that's Facebook.

I've been having singing lessons since March and I recorded the second song I learned with my teacher for her autumn concert today - pre-recorded as she lives ages away, but it's going to be played in the concert along with a few other contributions from her online students. Really excited and quite pleased with the final version.

Our twins are girls! How exciting! My family is very male heavy traditionally (I was one of 5 boys, my brother has 4 boys and both mine and my other brothers first were boys) so this is basically unchartered territory for us haha.

They are releasing two new Kindle Paperwhite's later next month (adding in features like soft light, and such) and thus the 2018 version is now on sale for $35 cheaper than normal. So I got to replace my 2015 Kindle (8th Gen) which only has 4gigs of space, got wet and damaged in a rain storm and thus is a little wonky-screenwise.

So that's exciting. I'm patiently awaiting it. The only thing I'm not sure of is how easy or tough it will be to port all my unread ebooks onto it from my old kindle, or if I have to re-download each separately onto it.

Sounds like good news for me then. I still need one.

Yep, now would be the time to jump on the previous Gen Paperwhite if you're interested.

Took our lady for her late night walk. Told her it's almost weekend. One more day.

A 5 day weekend, gotta love them. I for sure need it.

Anniversary lunch on Wednesday and enough time to finish installing the new kitchen cabinets and countertop so that I can put in the induction cooker and the oven. When that's finished our desks can be put in the new study downstairs so that the guestroom\study upstairs just becomes the guestroom where the desks will be replaced with some storage cabinets.
