A visit from my sister and her family, with my wife cooking Sunday lunch for us all. Few things nourish the soul quite like relaxing with a full belly and watching the children play in the sun.
Every morning I check the news to see if America has imploded yet. For how fast they're sliding into a fascist dictatorship, the revolution is coming on slooooowww. In more local news, I'm terrapin hunting again later today. Got a buddy to assist this time, so fingers crossed!
Turbulent start to the day with Beeboss, so I've forced myself to the gym for some physical mediation. Deep breaths... UPDATE: I finally finished The Myth Of Sisyphus this afternoon. Some fantastics quotes throughout, that I'll add soon.
Good workout today. A quiet gym is a gift from god. UPDATE: I'm writing again. Other than here, I mean. Insights, self reflection, skits... Little bits here and there. It feels good. I'll tidy some up and publish it soon.
Tidying again. Keeping busy. It's not much but it's good to see some of my regular spaces in order. It's important I keep myself occupied and find things to achieve while I'm free to command my own time.
You'll mourn for the time lost. You'll mourn for the version of yourself that could have been. There's nothing to be gained in the pity. All you can do is keep going. Keep moving forward.
Low mood day today. Losing track of my goals and need to get back on track. Still, made it to the gym and read Daydream and Drunkenness of a Young Lady by Clarice Lispector. I love the heady, intoxicating tipsiness captured within the first story, fluttering between the silly and the sorrow.
Working out again. Can't stay still. Movement is the enemy of depression. LATER: I really enjoyed Thunderbolts* Florence Pugh is incredible in everything I've seen her in. She might just be the MCUs saviour.
