It's been a rather productive year so far:

I did a lot of cross stitching.
Went vegan.
Dabbled into gardening (my partner did most of the work sadly but I'm more interested now than I was before!).
Got into birdwatching so I started exploring nature with a much more different perspective.
Set up a bird feeding station that got really popular among the birds AND the neighbours.
Learned how to crochet.
A combination of the aforementioned things somehow taught me how to manage my depression and anxiety better. I'm in a much better spot now than when I was mostly playing video games.

Your ladybug stitch that you posted looks really fantastic!

Thanks, it was meant to be a birthday present for my partner and I did it in secret. Really fun project!
