CALLING ALL PPL WHO STRUGGLE TO KEEP A CALENDAR!
I used to keep a bullet journal years ago but I completely fell off it once COVID began. Since then, I have had no calendar to keep my life together.
As someone with ADHD, a calendar would help me stay sane, but every time I tried to get back into it, no matter what I tried, it never stuck. Therefore, my life was a mess.
But while reading a Webtoon (called "30 Minutes With You" if you're interested, it's really wholesome) the main character does daily doodles in her pocket calendar, and then it clicked.
I've been doing daily little doodles in my pocket calendar and I've generally kept up for two months now! Overall, it's been really fun AND has kept me more put together!
Here is an example:
Tumblr media
You can get a pocket calendar from Dollar Tree for $1.25 (if you're in the US and Canada)! I use blank office labels cut into the right size as the white squares I draw on just because it looks better.
This has also really helped my memory, because once stuff happens my brain forgets it immediately. It really makes me feel like my life is fuller and it's been easier to look back and see how far I've come!
Hope it helps! 💛

April Fool's!
Just a short fic about how I think Steve and Eddie would handle April Fool's Day. I hope you like it and please leave your thoughts in the comments!
~*~*~*~
They’d been together for a year at that point and what a year it had been. In that time, Eddie had his name cleared of multiple murders, had gotten his first boyfriend, graduated high school on his third attempt, got adopted into a dysfunctional family, and had fallen in love. ‘86 really was his year. 
But now, he thinks ‘87 would be even better. If the upcoming months were anything like the last then he was looking forward to it. As he laid in bed watching a softly snoring Steve, he couldn’t help but think about how lucky he was. He had the perfect man curled around him like a blanket-hogging octopus and he’d never felt so in love. 
When Steve’s arms stretched and his mouth opened in a disgustingly wide yawn that made his nose scrunch, Eddie could do little more than coo affectionately at the sight. Steve’s eyes blinked blearily at him and he smiled a tired, but still beamed the brightest smile. “G’morning Eds.”
Eddie meant to say good morning back or compliment him on how beautiful he looked so early in the morning. What he ended up saying though was perhaps the worst thing he could’ve said. “Marry me.”
Son of a bitch, why’d he do that?! They’ve only been together a year, fuck! It wasn’t like he didn’t mean it, he’d marry Steve in the snap of a finger. However, his boyfriend deserved a huge proposal with lots of planning and meaning, not some half-hearted (albeit well-meaning) slip of tongue. 
As he watched the emotions on Steve’s face, he saw a lot. His expressions flickered between surprise, contentment, confusion, disappointment, and anger, but seemed to settle on hurt. Tears flooded Steve’s eyes but he swiped them away angrily. 
“What the fuck, Eddie. Why would you say that?” He sneered at him, anger covering his heartbreak. 
Eddie was taken aback for a moment. He didn’t think that his proposal warranted that reaction but he wasn’t going to judge Steve for being hurt and disappointed. He would be too if Steve had proposed so blandly on a random Wednesday.
“I’m sorry baby, I didn’t mean for it to come out like that! You just looked so cute that I was thinking about it and my mouth moved faster than my brain. I’m sorry and you don’t have to answer now. I’ll ask again later and it’ll be way better and way more romantic,” he promised. 
Steve just shook his head and clambered out of bed. He pulled on a pair of jeans and a polo off the floor as he went, muttering angrily under his breath all the while. Then he disappeared through the doorway. 
Eddie sat on the bed in shock. He gets that he made a mistake by just blurting it out like that but was Steve really that against marrying him? I mean, it wasn’t even legal to do yet so they wouldn’t be married in the eyes of the law. It would just be an acknowledgement to themselves and their family about how much they love each other. So why was he so against it? 
When he heard the unmistakable jingle of Steve grabbing his car keys, Eddie shot out of bed and barricaded the door to the trailer with his body. He couldn’t let Steve leave when they were fighting (not after the last time he left and hid with Robin for two weeks and gave Eddie the silent treatment). 
“Steve, please don’t leave. I’m sorry, I don’t really know why you’re acting like this but I want to talk to you about it. Communication and shit. Please,” Eddie begged him. His eyes were pleading as he gazed at his boyfriend’s sad and stricken face. 
Steve shook his head and cleared his throat, “Was everything a joke to you?”
“What-”
“Our entire relationship, was it all just a massive prank? Haha Eddie, it’s hilarious. Now get out of the way,” Steve said. He lightly pushed at Eddie’s shoulder, gentle even in the face of his pain. 
“What are you talking about, why would it be a joke? I love you,” Eddie stated confusedly.
“Then why would you ask me to marry you on April Fool’s, Eddie? Like I wouldn’t say yes in a heartbeat if you asked me and actually meant it! Now seriously, I’m not dealing with this right now so let me leave.” He pushed at Eddie’s shoulder again but Eddie stood firm. 
“Of course I meant it! It wasn’t how I wanted to ask and I don’t have a ring ready and we can’t actually do it legally without being arrested. But I do want to marry you. I’m really sorry that I blurted it out like that but I meant it wholeheartedly.” 
“It’s April Fool’s Day, asshole!” Steve’s voice wavered as if realizing that that didn’t necessarily mean as much as he thought it did. 
Eddie felt the trailer’s door push against his back as Wayne arrived home from his shift. Oh hell no, no one was getting in or out of this trailer until he said his goddamn piece.  
“How the fuck am I supposed to know that? I hardly remember my own birthday, much less when April Fool’s Day is! I saw you looking sexy as hell and thought, ‘I want to marry this guy’. I didn’t consider what day it was!” 
The nudging of the trailer door against his back abruptly stopped and it slammed shut. It seemed that Uncle Wayne did not want any part of this lover’s spat. 
Steve dropped his keys onto the kitchen counter and ran his hands down his face. “God, I’m so stupid.”
“Hey, no you’re not! Don’t talk about yourself like that. I mean, if I knew it was April Fool’s today… Okay, I probably still would’ve asked. But I would’ve clarified that it wasn’t a prank and that I was only asking you because I can’t imagine myself not waking up to you for the rest of my life.”
Steve’s hands dropped from his face onto Eddie’s shoulders. “That was the most romantic thing you’ve ever said to me. Of course, I’ll marry you.”
And then, he kissed him. Years and years later on the day gay marriage became legal in Indiana, they made their marriage official surrounded by all their friends and family. They were older then, more gray hairs and back pain but even still, they sealed the deal with a kiss.

saturnalia in space from scratch [23/24]
~ a bsg christmas calender by @madamairlock & @lalalauraroslin 💜💜
23. watching snowflakes on the window pane
An early morning summons from her bed to Galactica didn’t bode well, especially when Bill refused to elaborate on the very little he had shared over the phone. It left her tired and feeling like she had woken up on the wrong side of the bed; not even the few Saturnalia decorations they had had the time to hang up throughout her office and the meeting room brightened her mood. Instead, she focused on shrugging her blazer on and making sure Billy was behind her as they hurried toward the shuttle Bill had already dispatched, both swallowing their questions until they knew they could get answers.
They walked into the CIC together and she immediately spotted Bill up in the Core. Billy continued shadowing her as they made their way to meet him, surprised to find the main crew gathered around the series of screens.  “If it’s bad news, I don’t want to hear it,” she told him in lieu of a greeting.  Bill shook his head and gestured to the outermost display. “What do you see?”  With a raised eyebrow, she followed his hand and stared at the black screen with a smattering of static. “A broken screen,” she scoffed.  “Screen isn’t broken, ma’am,” Dee replied quickly, with a tone that told Laura she had already said it several times.  “What is it, then?” Her eyes narrowed as she leaned against the console to get closer to the white dots, but it didn’t give her any additional ideas. “It almost… looks like snow.” She glanced back at Bill and also caught a glimpse of Tigh and Gaeta nearby. “Like when you’re watching at night, but there’s just enough light to see the flakes on the window.” Someone laughed quietly and she wasn't sure who, but she didn’t care.  “They’re white dwarfs,” Bill finally answered her. “Dozens in the same system; it’s never been seen before.”  “Incredible,” she breathed, her eyes wide when she turned back to the screen. “Beautiful.”  “There’s a few planets in the system too. Unless you object, I think we should take a look. Top off our water supply, science exploration.” She turned back to see him shrug with one shoulder.  “I think it’s a great idea.” She turned around and rested her hip against the console, pleased to feel her mood starting to turn around. “How soon?”  Bill took a step aside so Gaeta could move closer. “Around two hours, Madam President. The system is two jumps away, so as soon as we launch a recon mission and the Raptors report back, we can jump.”  “I’d love a copy of that recon report, when you have it.” She directed her words at Bill and smiled when he nodded. “In the meantime, I’d like to find a cup of tea and a few more minutes to wake up.”

Firstly and most importantly, 24 races is insane and Stefano Domenicali needs to be lobotomized.
There are 5 double headers and 3 triple headers scheduled for next year, which is 1 less double header but 1 more triple header than this year. But like, does anyone even want to watch that much F1? It's insanity.
I appreciate that they're trying to regionalise the calendar but they've still split races in the same region up so much so that over the year they're going from The Middle East to Australia to Asia to North America to Europe to North America again then back to Europe again then to Asia again then zip back over to North America again to hop over to South America only to go back to North America AGAIN and then to end it where they started in The Middle East 🙃
The calendar hasn't done anything to lessen the stress on mechanics and support staff who are now going to have to spend even longer away from their families.
Not to mention we don't know the sprint race weekends yet, but Domenicali has said that he wants to increase it to 10 weekends 🤦🏾‍♀️
