Highlighted Quotes That Caught my Attention At The Moment

“The great majority of people will go on observing forms that cannot be explained; they will keep Christmas Day with Christmas gifts and Christmas benedictions; they will continue to do it; and some day suddenly wake up and discover why.” – “On Christmas,” Generally Speaking

In Which we have Mods for Civ 5 and the Age of Giants

Good morning, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Tuesday! How are you, this first third of the week? As for me, I am okay, virtually better from the flu, thank Goodness. I had therapy yesterday, and it went very well, though I had to do it online. The reason for this move is the fact I am facing financial hardships once more. You think, after paying your dues, that you will be free from any future spenditure. Ah, not quite. Life moves on, and so does the bills. You have groceries to get, one and other amenity to purchase, and sometimes slicing the prices into smaller sizes in the end bites you in the back. The situation is not as bad as before my birthday, but I am in a scale from greeb to red, on a yellow. Christmas and cats! What is not to love? The past few days saw me trying some Civ 5 once more, and with some mods, which I was not too keen about some years ago. I stumble upon quite a big one, the Vox Populi community patch, and I have been getting myself familiar wirh it ever s

In Which we say Hello to June with a miscelaneous post!

Happy new Wednesday, and good morning! How are you today? How is the weather? Lovely rainy day where I'm at. I ate pizza yesterday, now I'm trying to hide the evidence before my mom wakes up and gives me a very hard time for ignoring my diet, or what's left of it. I mean, it's a new month, so could be an opportunity to perhaps eat less pizza, or at least exercise more so I can eat more pizza? Both choices are hard, but well, I'm overweight, so losing extra pounds, fat and so on is on the menu for me all the time, even if I don't order it. And speaking of new month:


(Lovely tutorial I found on Instagram, the author is Kate, @notebook_therapy, I suggest giving this account a follow, they post some nice notebook doodles, that are really wonderful to see)

June is here, Cheers! And with it, we are 8 days away from 4 years of blogging, how crazy is that? And what are the plans for June? Well, I just hope I may finish off paying my bills and don't get too much into another shopping spree, let's give it sometime before the next wave of "inspiration", so to speak, shall we? I am closer to my birthday, and I have the iPad in mind. My brother's birthday comes first, though! Lots of celebrations in this month, that I hope it may be a nice one. I hope I may work on some drawings, like more nature and buildings, but also wanna do more portraits, too, cause it's my favorite topic to draw about! For this Birthday, I think I could share some drawings I've been working on, because I haven't been posting them here for a while now, alas. I don't know how often I'll post this June, I hope more than not, but I don't wanna make promises that'll tangle me in and suffocate me, you know, the OCD brain... And I think it's best a few good posts that I feel proud of doing than a ton that I think won't really add much. There is always balance, but Balance for me was always somehow a distant goal. I hope I may play some games, perhaps stream more often? I mean, I kinda returned to streaming this May, thanks to a couple people that inspired me to try it again, and I'd like to thank them here. Thank you Skool, CoopCakes and justSpike! Skool is an oldtime friend, he is a pal of my best friend ever ManOfVault, the legendary O'Vault, savior of Twitch and Hero of Discord, the indie bard of this 21st century. Coop I met through Skool, because he did a raid to his channel, and Spike I met because he was at my recommended list on Twitch... As much as I don't care for the algorithm, sometimes it works! I mean, a bad clock still gets the hours righ at least twice a day, it's a brazilian saying (not sure if that's accurate but I've heard some brazilians using it). Yea, I could do shoutouts, too, on the blog! I guess I'm just too excited to write on a medium that many deem "dead". What can I say? There is no better place to share my words with people! Instagram is on the verge of death, for example, at least for people like me, who don't care about the reels and hate the promoted posts... Anyway, I really wanted to give those guys a shoutout, so let's do it! Cheers to Skool

And also this lovely wallpaper for phones I found on Pinterest, you can find the most lovely art there, I sometimes get carried away and I save like 10 pictures or so, the memory of my phone crumbles!


Could draw something like this, perhaps, a lovely pattern, but well, drawing takes a lot of creative energy and so on, I find it hard to focus, somehow... Specially with flowers and arabesque details, I get lost in them, coloring them tends to be a very daunting task as a result of my devanations! Anyway, I think this post got quite lovely in the end, just giving a shoutout to old and new friends, and sharing some ideas! Hope June goes fine for you as well, and we'll chat as things go! I want to perhaps do a stream today? I should not, because I don't want to burn out on it, but there are games to share with folk that may want to hang out! So well... I'll think for at least the next few days do some more! Well, anyway, I'll wrap up things here, and I see you again real real soon! Cheers
