Welcome, it's nice to see you!
It sounds like life is pretty busy for you. I got a new pen yesterday, an everyday fountain pen to carry round in my bag. It's fabulous so far and not very expensive.
Great that you feel you achieved something that you wrote about. It seems when we do that we're expressing our intention and then somehow it gets our attention - we're open to opportunities that help us achieve our intention.
