In Which Winter goes away too soon, and the routine once again, for my joy

Why hello there, sir friend, good morning and happy new week! How was your previous one, and how are you today, on this week that begins? As for me, I am okay, I'd say... after a bit of a positively happy birthday week, even with any sorrow that may have afflicted me, ah, it is what it is, just satisfied in retrospect with the birthday moments! It was low key, but I had a good piece of cheesecake! How is the weather in your side of things? Here, it has been heating up, as if spring arrived earlier. Overall, even with a drier winter, the subtle heat was perceived, as the sweater days are more scarce, and the socks start to spend more time in their drawer. The slippers change, the cushioned one is slowly being lesser used, why the others are more enjoyed, though soon it will be uncomfortable for those as well, and the typical rubber open shoes in japanese fashion will be in full swing again. Ordinary changes, but enough to make me want to write about them, and even to start a new pos...

In Which I restart my Save, Upcoming Surgery and the diet, and more stuff in my thoughts

Good morning, my excellent friend! Happy Thursday! Ah, how have you been? As for me, fhis week has been a challenge... with my surgery anticipated to next week, I am on preparation diet for it. And this diet is restrictive. I cannot have sugar, nor can I have dairy stuff, or red meat. It sucks, but anyway... it is for the best. My coffee consumption has been cut down to 1/5 of before, so my metabolism is a mess as a result. I sleep during the day, because I have no energy enough to keep me going. I have been having trouble sleeping at night, in fact, today is one of those days where I am on this problematic situation... it could be worse, of course, I am not starving or anything... even if being awake at night does not help at all. But, yes, could be worse. I will change for a liquid diet at the eve of the surgery. Ah, God, I hope this move is a worthy one, after all.. 


Beautiful sculpture portraying the artist Elisabeth Vigee LeBrun, at the height of her youth and freshness... I found it magnificent, and wanted to share it here today! 

Well, apart from the challenges of the preparation for the procedure, I have been feeling lonely. Evan is a bit absent these days, alas. I miss this bright individual, that I greatly appreciate. At least I am not suffering as I was, some months ago, due to Johannes being so busy, not available for conversation... Ah, it is what it is, I would rather have them in my life than not. God bless my friends... I have more than I mention, it is true, dear people that I love to chat with... but my favorite ones are Evan and Johannes, as well as dear Charlie...

I had to restart my Sims 3 save, unfortunately, because my Sim's skills were not improving. Sims, no matter the entry, is a game about experimenting and building skills, so when that feature is broken, it makes the whole thing not worthy anymore, hence, the restart. Anyway, I guess this is an opportunity for new adventures with my sim, Sir Vladislavov. Same world, though, I am fond of hidden springs, though I miss the beautiful Monte Vista... Apart from the restart, I have been very much keen in getting new items for the game. The world of the Sims Store is vast and fascinating... I feel free from Sims 4, finally, and am more than happy to play Sims 3 instead. Took me a while, to discover the other entries of this moribund franchise, but now, I can say I cannot go back to Sims 4... I got so much into Sims 3 these days, in fact, I got close to streaming it on Twitch the other day! I almost did that... BUT, it was not to be. Maybe next time. I did not do it because grandma was visiting, and then I got anxious... I am not sure if I am up to the task these days of dieting and woe over missing dear people for me... but well... who knows...

Ah, I do wish I was more active here the past few days, but, with these things going on with me, the diet in special, I could not bring myself to type a single word... I have some things I would love to mention further, such as the good news that EU4 is coming out with more DLC in 8th of May. And the bad news: Victoria 3's dlc got postponed. It will come out now on the 25th of June. Oh well, one more reason to look forward to winter! This post is getting quite big, and I may wrap this one up soon, so I will save the dlc content for another blog post. So much to write, if only I had the desire to expose it all. There is a poem I did, some weeks ago, new DLC for EU4 to mention as well... anyway...

With this, time to wrap up todays blog post! I pray and hope to be back soon, before my surgery, even, with more thoughts and ideas. I hope by then I'd slept better, as well. We'll see, some things are hard to keep track of. Thank you so much for visiting the divagation store, my friend! Always a pleasure, wish you the best, and see you again real soon!!!!
