As of reading this post, my weekend plans have already begun!

I am currently enjoying a bowl (or three) of fresh homemade french onion soup and a glass of sauvignon blanc.

Tomorrow I'm going to put the finishing touches on a shelf for my cousin and install it in her bedroom.

After that I'm probably going to putter around in the shop for a bit, clean up, maybe sharpen something. I'll probably poke at FreeCAD a bit with the intention of designing one of the larger woodworking projects I have going this year; I have a cabinet, a hutch and a dry bar to build once the days lengthen a bit.

I'm late in a run through Satisfactory. I've sent the last project up the space elevator, so now I'm just horsing around, dumping things in the AWESOME sink. My stretch goal is all the trophies; the 1000 coupons for the Golden Nut is a goal I've not yet achieved in this game. I'm really hoping this is my last run of this game in early access, I don't want to wear myself out on it before 1.0.

Speaking of stretch goals, I just got the notification that a Kickstarter I'm backing has achieved it's goal. To be fair it had before I bid; The Longest Johns are releasing a new album and along with it a bunch of other goodies. I've got their whole back catalog coming on CD. I'm looking forward to it because it'll make it easier to listen to their music in the shop, where I don't have good internet signal.

I think it's off to a good start.

Update: Cat in lap. Is purring.
