August / September ðŸ«
Am I mega late to doing another blog? Yes yes I am.
Life got me good the month of August, I caught covid.. AGAIN. It was by far the worst experience of them all. I was out for close to 4 Weeks. It was hard to create anything or move around the house. I did my best to film youtube video, shorts and client work, but when I lost my taste it was very hard to continue to do much. I lose time all the the time. But being sick made me feel like i’m getting further behind on all the tasks I already felt behind on, and it continues to feel more awful as time goes on and things still, are not done.
Moving into the Fall (Yesterday, As i’m writing this on September 23nd). I’m feeling the most anxious I have been in a long time.
Nothing feels complete or done, I feel like i’m stepping on toes because I want to get work done. And the last time I had time to myself would’ve had to been when I lived alone. Now i’m not complaining that my life is hard or tough, I am just feeling tired, overwhelmed and ready for a break. And knowing that I have holiday functions that I must attend don’t make me feel any better as we move into the holidays.
Today, I sit here in a cafe. I have left the house, and I walked here! Little moments to myself that I will remember in this bit of chaos that has consumed me lately.
I am calendar planning, making lists and hoping to edit some videos today and get through my inbox. Not an ideal Saturday but I will take it. I am getting things done.
That has been the entire month. A blur, feelings of incomplete, tired, lonely and exhausted. It eventually will come to an end, but i’m going to keep on this slow ride up this hill to get work done, continue to complete the things i am passionate about even though it feels like all i do is work lately.
With all of this gloomy writing I wanted to finish with my Wish List, Things I’m loving right now and whatever comes to mind as I wrap up this short blog.
Wish List:
Oura Ring - I am wanting to know more data on my sleep as the days continue on.
Ali Abdaal’s Book, Feel Good Productivity - It’s a pre order and I am very excited about it
A mini cabin vacation alone in the mountains or somewhere cozy in the bushes - I day dream about sleeping in, drinking great coffee, reading, and working on personal projects (its much different than the work i’m working on lately!)
Eight Sleep Cover - I’ve been looking into this forever. Now that i share a bed with a man who runs extremely hot, and I run extremely cold this looks like it might come into the picture one day.
Probably something from Lululemon - Though i’ve been doing my best to not look as Christmas is coming up and i want to buy gifts for others!
I’m loving:
Retail Pod is by far one of my favourite podcasts and something i look forward to ever week.
