In Which Gardening Will Not Redeem Diocletian

Good morning, my friend! I am fighting against the desire to sleep, as I do want to write a post today. My eyes are so heavy, my muscles are all failing, it is like I am going to explode in exhaustion. And yet, maybe it isn't sleep, it could be anemia in any case, I hope you are in a healthier position than me, today? Of course, do let me know. And also, let me know how is the weather? Here it is one day of mild winter, which is so much appreciated. Fun how just being some centimeters in a different direction, concerning the planets, can make a difference! Here, it means the difference between a scorching day, and a more mild one. There could be influence of the ocean currents as well, but anyway, I would love to jump to today's theme, that motivated me to write. If you allow me, let is jump to it! As I mentioned anemia, let us turn to gardening, or more specifically, to cabbages and lettuces. I saw a post today that pointed that Emperor Diocletian abdicated the throne to go ta...

In Which I Return to the Airborne Kingdom!

Hello, dear friend, reader of this post! And good morning, what a great pleasure is to have you around! I always feel lazy before starting to type on the blog, sometimes writing on it, and after writing as well, I am a lazy person, but at moments I do enjoy writing, and I feel very accomplished after finishing a post... I don't know, just happy to wrap up one more, on these almost 4 years of blogging! Been a long while! It is weird the blog have been stuck around for so long, don't you think? As also have my habit of drawing... One step at a time, I'd say. How are you? How are things going? As for me, it is raining so much, which is wonderful as I love rain. I can see the winter approaching, and it makes me happy, as I love winter! I don't know, guys, everytime I play Europa Universalis, feels like the last time, but I have new ideas and so on, and then return to the game! My latest run was with Portugal, again, and it went well, and not so well. I had a very good empire, but also was at the verge of bankruptcy. Bankruptcy is the worst thing that could happen to you in Europa, it means you completely depleted your resources and now you have to face the consequences of spending that much. Quite frustrating, really. So yea, I abandoned that playthrough, not sure what to do next... Just will probably eat something and listen to the rain falling. One of my paintings fell from the wall, I guess I haven't pinned the nail correctly. Really, I am not feeling like fixing this right now, probably is the rainy day, making me lazy, but then again sunny days also make me lazy, and sweaty, which I hate. I guess I'm just on the lazy side for most things.


Here's one thing that cheers me up! A lot of astronaut cats, playing music! So cool! It's my new shoulder bag, a nice acquisition. I wanted to get one because pockets are not that practical most of the time, and this makes them less needed. Plus, kittens are cute, kittens n space are amazing! Well, I think I wrote pretty much all I wanted for today's post, I was so out of ideas, so this is just an improv session! Thank you for being here, reader of this post, and I see you again real soon! So no worries!
