In Which we have some July novelties and gratitudes

Good afternoon, almost evening, my dear friend, reader of this post! It is that time, when after a moment of productivity, I find myself out of ideas nor desire to do anything. Ah, sad how it goes, but one must have balance I suppose. I do say this mentioning the past weeks, given I haven't written, nor drawn much, and my desire to play games is fleeting, at times it is all I wanr to do, at others I am struggling for meaning. It does suck to have moments of demotivation and a tired mind, but I don't think there is much one can do to avoid resting. At least I can say it was a very positive blog birthday! I thank you for being here! And I hope you are okay. That all being said, I am very relieved I can type something here without dreading or panicking, be it at the blank page or at my blank mind. May this be a return to not as productive times as June, because those can't be manufactured that easily, but at least to more moments of activity creative wise. Concerning drawing, ...

In Which we begin November 2024: A Balance of trends...

Good morning, dear reader of this post, and happy November,  and happy Saturday! How are you? How is the weather? Is it autumn for you, with the wonderful moments of the season, or are you trapped in the land of eternal summer, such as myself? Summer, associated with joy, for me is a bad season, I hate the heat, hate the sun, hate humidity, hate sweating. It is good for tourists that come here, perhaps, but terrible for me. In any case, at least the beautiful season of Christmas is indeed, here, or at least it is more acceptable to shout my love for the season of our Lord more loudly than I could in September or October. In any case, I am okay. I slept through most of Friday, because I was out of coffee, so I can't talk much about yesterday, but today, this weekend, I am okay. The weather is not that hot, yet, and I hope the summer when it is fully here - as we technically are still in spring - it won't be as devastating as the season of 23-24.



With the amount of sleep I had this Friday, I at least begin the 2nd of November sort of well rested. Also, I do have the goal of not forcing myself to play any game I don't desire to play, nor do any activity I don't desire on doing. I do have the compromise with my online history course to study, it is on my interest to finish this one. But those are obligations, and I am largely referring to my time of leisure. It is true my hours are flexible, because I have an online course, but still, on my activities of leisure, I am aiming at not forcing anything. In contrast to the agony of September and some spikes of melancholy in October, though they were aleviated by medications, that sounds like a good objective to pursue.

For my Christmas, like I did with my birthday, I hope I can pay my dues, and so making me even more financially stable. Starting 2025 with less credit card debt and more space for maneuver, that sounds like an ideal goal to have. The prospect for work is not promising at the moment, and I worry even so the pressure to take it will grow, in any case, if I ever do find something on the near future, even if that may cause trouble and will require some adaptation to say the least, I suppose at least the money will be very much welcome. Depending on the work available, if any, I could even land on a good deal.

In summary, November begins with the hopes of not forcing myself on my moments of leisure, keeping on my online history course, and with the relief of moving towards the end of another exhausting and difficult year. It is true that it had a much more upward trend than 2023, specially because of my new course, and because of the success of the bariatric surgery, but still, I will not pretend it was easy, nor pleasant, I will just confirm that it is what it is.

Sounds like a good moment to wrap up this post for the day! I should also update my quote on my blog, because the one currently in the highlight is from the season of birthdays (blog birthday and personal birthday). I should see to it... in any case, when should I return for more thoughts, ideas and balances? Hopefully at some point this new week. Sooner rather than later, if I can help it. No worries, then! Chin up, I wish you the best, and see you again real soon! Farewell, dear friend!
