I've taken the next step in reducing Microsoft's presence in my life: I've just notified my mother that I'm cancelling my subscription at the next renewal and she will be back on the free plan.
It is not much of a sacrifice as I still have full access to all the programs through both work and uni, but I won't be paying them (which was primarily for my cloud storage). I might look at LibreOffice at some point, but the main thing I use is a complicated spreadsheet for my budget and it is highly likely something will break if I try it in a different program.
LIbre office is good. It can do everything Office can but the layout is a little different so you may need to just find where some options are. It's good to have Office in some form available as a backup

Wide awake at a quarter to five. Loving this cool weather, the heavy doona is so comforting.
I need to move back to the heavy doona, I've still got my light summer doona on the bed and needed the electric blanket last night.
As a bonus that means I will get to use one of my new (to me) fancy patterned flat sheets I was given, which will match the doona covers for the heavy doona perfectly. I have king sized wool doonas for winter & have moved to folding them between two sheets instead of using an actual cover, which is easier to change (especially because the covers have shrunk or something and don't fit well). I like the patterns on my covers so I have cut and hemmed them to be the flat sheet on top and the two patterned sheets I was given will match them really well as the folded over top sheet.
I've also moved to having flat sheets on the bed instead of fitted. I was getting frustrated with fitted sheets that had been cut without enough fabric on the sides and with dodgy elastic, so I was planning on making fitted sheets from the flats, but I have found that just using them as is has been working fine too so I think I'll just stick with that.
