A slight update
Dec. 20th, 2023 08:44 pmHey, it feels like it's been awhile since I wrote any sort of update on my personal life... Things are going about the same they have been. Sill I am struggling with personal issues I cannot speak of, but I am getting through. My health I think has gotten better since I have been taking the medication for my thyroid. Lately I feel less tired and my weight has gone down (which is good) but it may have gone down also because my diet has gotten a tad better. I still take an occasional nap, but that may be out of guilty pleasure (sleeping is one of my favorite past times). Still I struggle with bouts of depression and if that isn't clearing up more by mid February when I go to my doctors again I think I will address that. After now being on a medication for the first time in my life and seeing/feeling the improvements I think I could handle another medication for depression if that would help me.
It's been hard to bring myself upstairs to work on my laptop and my puzzle. I'm not sure if it's this room (it was the room my last ex used while he lived here and there still feels like negative energy and vibes at times) or just because I don't pictorially like being in front of my laptop for long periods of time. So web comics I can only read from my laptop have been something I haven't been able to get to as much as I would like to. But I'm going to try to get better at this. Mind over matter or something like that is what they say, right?
One of my comforts has been working on my stamps. I've been sorting my international stamps in new binder albums to give more space in my current lighthouse albums. And I have so many from certain countries, so it's been refreshing to give them the space they need and not overcrowding a page. I'm grateful to have this hobby, it's been a solid in my life during the ups and downs of the last three years since I started it.
Also I've been reading more lately. So much so I've been trying to keep up with two books at a time. Two of the books had to do with birds and I think I may try to take up that hobby again soon.
Also I should note I have been able to work on my comic again, that's been fun. Last night I got the cover page for chapter 11 done and some other important pages for the comic started. Next step I want to do is find another platform to share Promised Memories on. Working on the worldbuilding and characters and story itself has been a nice distraction.
Alright, I feel that is a decent update on myself. In early 2024 I want to write a short entry on good books I read in 2023. Also I still plan on writing the reviews for Comic Fury web comics I have been reading, I do hope those help the authors. I feel like my writing has improved already by doing almost 20 of them now. This felt good to write.
