1.nov.25
like some year prior to now, i have decided that i’d like to write every day of november.
it’s kind of my riff off of nanowrimo (national novel writing month), partially because i have yet to commit to myself like that, and partially because the thought of writing a novel still scares the poo out of me.
however…
i am back in november to once again write daily. will i be writing on here every day? probably not. i will probably keep it to myself for the sake of just writing without too much pressure, but i would like to write on here at least every weekend. ideally fridays, but i wanted to start officially on the 1st and that is today (saturday), so alas, here i am.
to be frank, i am moderately distracted because i have youtube on right now to have some noise on as it’s just me and p while joshua is working and i need to keep an ear out for the baby monitor. life is kind of funny these days. i certainly hoped for this reality, but i’m not sure i actually saw myself as one to pay attention to a baby monitor at some point in my life.
ok, anyway, anyway. it is getting cold here. it was 37 when we woke up this morning, and we rose late at a groggy 9 am. i, of course, am in utter bliss because i can now wear sweaters without feeling like a walking sauna. so nice. soooooooo nice. i do, however, need to probably find another pair of pants to alternate between because my jeans are now too big and though it’s a nice problem to have, it’s really annoying when i just want to wear jeans most of the time. i’ll convert all that angst into appreciation for my sweaters though, because truly, i am so unbelievably happy to be reunited with them once again.
the negative side of the cold weather coming is that the farmer’s market provisions are starting to wane. we’ve been so dependent on a couple of our farmer friends to provide us with the best produce, but we are starting to pivot a little bit already back to grocery store produce. not the same!! ah, what a bummer.
in other news, i have been in an annoying reading slump. i think partially because we were traveling and had some festivities keeping our attention, but i’m aiming to get back to it this weekend. especially because i am on my favorite dungeon crawler carl book and it deserves my full attention. although, i am already experience heartbreak remembering what’s happen. ah, how the saddest things are also my favorite things. anyway, it’s still a kick ass book and i really wanna dive into it so i can keep reading other books on my list. no where near reaching my goal of 40 books this year, but i think i’m doing quite alright considering the major life changes over this year.
hmm. not sure what else to add here other than i am trying to make more time for creativity these days, especially since christmas is coming and i am doing my best to buy as few gifts and make as many gifts as possible.
ok. til next time.
