It is once again Friday! I’m not doing well, to be honest. I’m having a tough pain. day and I’m quite nauseous. It’s been very difficult for me to stay awake today which is always frustrating, especially because I don’t wake up feeling any better. Getting a brief break from everything is nice, of course, but worrying about its effect on my sleep schedule is very much not.
I did start on my dad’s present, though! I really hate working with black yarn but thankfully, there isn’t all that much of it in this project. It’s just that I had to start with it and that was annoying. I’m working on a new accessory for myself—a vintage inspired snood, which is a sort of fancy hair net—which is a nice relaxing break, since I’ve already made one before so I don’t have to stress about getting it right or check instructions while I work. I haven’t had the energy to work on either today, unsurprisingly, but I’m trying not to worry about it or be hard on myself for it.
I’m honestly struggling quite a bit to think about things to tell you, let alone string together the words to describe them. I really haven’t been doing much the past few days. I started reading The God of the Woods which I’m really enjoying so far. A mystery, historical setting—albeit much more recent than I often opt for; so much so that “historical” feels a bit of a stretch, considering my mom was alive when the story takes place—AND set in New York, the Adirondacks no less, is a premise practically made for me. I’ve only made it through a couple chapters so I can’t say much yet, except that, well, I like it so far.
I think that’s all I can say for today. Hopefully on Tuesday I’ll have more to talk about, preferably positive topics. Have a nice weekend and I’ll see you again soon!
