totchipandaMonday I was exhausted so the evening was spent laying in bed.
Tuesday was Dancing with the Stars, so I was at M's place for most of it.
Yesterday I was fired up! My first evening home in 4 days when I wasn't completely wiped! I was gonna do THIS! I was gonna do THAT! I might even do THING!
Reader, I collected the garbages, and took a nap. I even went back to sleep at a reasonable time (just after midnight) and stayed asleep all night.
Hanging out at the other building today, so at least my day is going to be quiet and free of noisy coworkers talking my ear off. I can't watch videos over here, but that is OK. So peaceful! Perhaps tonight the this and that and thing will get done. I definitely need a change, this is stressful on me in ways that are so subtle.
I have been successfully advertised to, after nearly a year of instagram ads, with creative journaling stickers. I've been waffling on them, would I actually use them, probably not, waffle waffle... Then I was looking at their videos on YouTube and decided to just go for it. I haven't got a clue how to start, but for now I can just copy their spreads until I figure out what works for me. I was thinking how it would be useful for me to have a monthly list of all of my pre-approved and recurring payments, and this will suit me very well. Pages of stickers and a small space for each day already tickles my brain. I feel like I could just write down something each day, that doesn't have to be world-shattering or even "productive", and review the books whenever I like. A nice analog of my life right now to look back on some day.
So I was watching those videos on Tuesday and I was just FIRED UP to get home and pull out my plethora of stickers and a blank journal I have kicking around. While at M's place, I made a month for October and filled in bits and pieces. I did use ultra cutesy stickers because that's what I had and it does not fit the vibe of October at all lol. When I got home, I added a bunch of Halloween stickers and that's much better. But I do not like the notebook I used, the paper is SO THIN that a regular gel pen is heckin visible through the page. "I can do this," I said. "it's fine for now."
"For now" lasted about 12 hours and I subscribed to the stickers. On the 24th, completely missing the fact that the next sub would be out on the 25th and would charge again. Whoops. Welp. I could have skipped it but chose not to. They did say anyone who auto-renews would get a coupon, and I 100% intend to take advantage of that...
Anyway, I guess I'm in my sticker journal era. Yay me?
Ok self, let's get fired up for a few nights of being a fantastic human who takes care of themselves and does fun hobbies. Plans for the next few nights/weekend:
-free!! museum friend-date with M
-dishes (ugh)
-cleaning in general, the floor esp needs a tidy and vacuum
-start the sewing!
-are you ever gonna finish that knitting swatch?
-prepare yarns for next KAL project
-make bread
