In Which the Divagation Store reaches the 900 posts Milestone! Reflection on Why...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this present post! How are you today, this new week? It should be the last one for February, quite soothing that it will end on a Sunday as well, given it started on a Sunday, too! As for me, I did sleep quite a bit yesterday, but I cannot complain of not being a productive day, given I finished reading the biography of Madame de Pompadour, written by Nancy Mitford. Quite a good one, and in fact, I would say is a great one! What a remarkable lady she was, the great patronesse of Rococo, though she sensed a move in France towards a more neoclassical direction, and overall set the sails on the direction of the style of the next era, the one called Louis XVI style, though in truth it was the queen Marie Antoinette who truly set the tone. I like this topic, and I love her majesty. Though the late rococo she preferred was hinted with an antique tint, it was not the more sober neoclassical of the 1790's and the Napoleonic era. She brought flowers a...

In which we talk about hardships

Good morning guys! Sorry I didn't post much last week, I will explain the reasons why bellow... how are you today? How are things going? I wish you the best and many good things may come your way! I wish I could say I'll stick to the schedule this week but the truth is I don't know if I'll do so, let's hope! At least this isn't an upside down week! It is quite alright in place! So, let me explain...


First of all, I made this design on Adobe Spark! What do you guys think?

So, I wasn't able to post much on my upside down week, reason being I was tired as hell, I just wanted to stay in bed the whole Thursday. I streamed that day, I managed to do so, but it didn't go too well also, just haven't been feeling like it these days, which is really sad. Unfortunately motivation hasn't been a friend these days, and I just feel like staying in bed forever, and when I write, it is extremely hard not to throw a lol, but I try my hardest not to do so, I don't know, it makes the reading a bit polluted, let's leave the lols for the chats, shall we? Anyway, speaking of chats, promoting the blog, even changing the quote of the week is a very hard task, really, in the sense that I'm most of the time unwilling to do so, without the energy, I think I'm not a very much energic guy, which sucks, but anyway. Finding the motivation to stream and blog and draw as well is hard, it comes to me unevenly (is that an actual word?), and it's easy to stay in bed the whole day, really. Streams are hard to do, usually very few people show up, which wouldn't be a problem if I had someone to chat with, which I have not, most of the time, I feel extremely insecure, like am I talking properly with those who show up? Am I missing some message? It is stressful! At least with blogging I know I have no such issue, I can just write and write and I feel safe because I don't expect many to read what I write, but well, it's like having a convo with my friends. Anyway, today I'm just endlessly rumbling (rambling?) about things, and I don't know how to offer a proper ending to the post, so I'm just gonna say, well, time moves on, and eventually motivation comes, and I stream, draw and write, until then, well, just gotta do my best to stay some extra time outside of bed.... Thank you so much for reading this, means a lot! See you next time, and I hope next time is soon!
