In Which we return to SimCity 2013, victim of blind spots...

Good afternoon, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Tuesday, how are you? How have the first week of 2025 treated you? An auspicious start, so I hope! As for me, I am okay... at moments, because I have been trying some different things on my games and computer, I feel in the dark, walking in circles with no purporse and so I become frustrated. The hobby has also caused me to be less mentally available for drawing or writing, at least over the past few days, which is also a source for dismay. In retrospect, though, it's not all bad. I think my first drawing of 2025, the cherry tree, tradition since 2022, looked quite charming, and I trust I will do some more at some point real soon, there is no reason for any stress I'd say, even if I stress all the same. The year caused me to become surprised with its walking, because on a chain of events that started with SimCity 4, released 2003, I ended up returning to the infamous title SimCity 2013, famous for ending SimCity as a franchi...

In Which we welcome 2025! A set of tranquil moments...

Good morning, dear friend, reader of this post! Happy Friday, and happy year of 2025! How are you, today? How were your first two or three days of the upstarting month of January? As for me, I am okay, and the year started on a positive note. I trust I mentioned it before, I went to the house of grandma to see the fireworks, and see the fireworks is exactly what I did, in the best position possible, all the 13 minutes of display! As grandma live so close to the beach, and her bedroom balcony has a view to the ocean, my watch place for the fireworks was perfect, and the show was very nice! Pretty impressive! I had my lunch there on the first, then I returned home afterwards. Got myself a haircut yesterday, though not on the place I usually get the haircuts... Most of the barbershops were closed, and I found out about this fact after spending money on car rides... I hate this sort of countertime. In any case, at some point I found myself to a vip barbershop, and there goes my allowance. A bit frustrating, but at least I got an excellent haircut, and an espresso. Ah... whatever was left of the money for the week I spent on a portable table I have been looking towards for a while. At least I got to visit the mall, not an usual activity of mine, and I quite like going to the mall anyway. I find myself now testing this desk, using the laptop on the sofa. Quite a nice position, actually. Happy to count on this option now, whenever I need it or just when I don't feel like getting out of bed, if the bed I find myself in has an auspicious position for the portable set. I will not grade it so soon, but it is promising, for now. I would try on my mom's bed, given she is traveling at the moment, but since I don't trust the stability of said bed, specially since its structure has been damaged by fiber eating bugs, I decided the sofa was a more reliable positioning. Well, here I am, then, those were my first moments in 2025, not really that bad of a time, I am very grateful to be given some hours of peace and quiet. 



Sharing with you a picture of the enjoyable event! It was great to see it, does make you more optimistic about one year's perspectives! As I trust I mentioned, I would love to do some online courses I have laying around since 2022, that I got but for some reason never proceeded with them. God knows I already am thinking of getting new ones even, which I really should not. I mean, why not do the ones I already have, first? I am sure that is a better path, when I think also of the money I spent already... getting new ones now when I have 5 on the queue is not ideal. Apart from that, maybe trying games I may like but haven't played as much, that could also be a good path in 2025, at least for January... I also was surprised in a positive way when I found out an online friend returned to streaming, at least for one. It was amazing to see it, even making me think of considering doing it again someday. I mean, God knows I am always anxious when it comes to it, but I mean... I play Europa Universalis 4, I can even fly if I put my mind to it...

In short: The year started tranquil. How long will this continue remains to be seen. I hope when the tribulations come, they don't come all at once, I can only pray for any landslide of problems to be avoided. With that, maybe it is time to wrap up today's post? I suppose it is. No worries, I should return really soon with more thoughts and ideas and so on, I would love to return in the next days to share my first drawing of 2025, even, I may post it on Patreon first though, my dear supporter deserves at least as many updates as I can offer per month, in any case... Almost lunchtime here, I am starting to get a bit hungry. I do hope I have the motivation and patience to cook to myself  a nice meal, we will see. Until then, thank you so much for being here, dear reader of this post, my friend, and I wish you the best! Farewell!!!
