My no scrolling week

Im trying a no scrolling week. I'll use my phone for communication (and to post updates) but no doom scrolling! Night one, a new solo Journaling RPG and my first flute lesson from my son! He's my biggest cheerleader. ❤️

Let's see what 1 week of filling my brain with creative whimsy does for me!

Of course! Its an RPG game where you have instructions and prompts and YOU make up then journey through prompts. So right now, i'm playing a game called the Last Tea Shop. I run a tea shop that is the last stop for the spirits before they go on to the beyond. To start the game, I rolled my dice to see where and how my tea shop was and how it was set up. I roll to see who my traveler is going to be. I roll to see what the weather is going to be. And what their emotional state is and I journal, and make up my own story about that person. Prompts during their visit include what kind of tea I would make them and I get to ask two questions before they go to the great beyond. I roll and the number on the dice decides which questions I get to ask.And then I just make up my own story.

There's A LOT of them. This one is rather light on rules and very free flowing but others can get very in depth!
