October Update(s)
I don’t know why, of all things and all times, now is the time that inspiration is striking at me to write something for the blog, but here we are!
September didn’t have an updates post. We’re actually lucky a poem went live (I schedule the whole year of poetry posts somewhere between Fall and Winter of the year BEFORE the posts go live here, FaceBook gets the posts scheduled at the beginning of the month because that’s all it’ll really let me do, and Instagram doesn’t get scheduled it’s just me finding which piece needs posted that day). Not that you wanted or needed to know all that. This is apparently a very rambly feeling post tonight (it’s almost 9 P.M. as I type this).
It is now several days later and a little after 9 P.M. as I pick this post back up. Go figure. I’ve gotten a few things done at my desk in the office (with the help of husband) so I’m no longer staring at a blank wall. I now have some blank cork boards to fill with things though! If you’ve followed my Instagram you’ve likely seen my enamel pin boards. Those are now on my wall. As well as my normal cork board that I put up tonight so I can pin writing related things on it. And notes.
I write this so it can get posted in a few days while I’m eating Halloween themed Oreos. Yes, with milk. From a Peanuts Halloween mug. Long live the Great Pumpkin.
There’s been a lot on my mind lately and I’ve been dealing with a fair amount of physical pain on top of that. I’m not entirely sure what is causing the physical pain, but the husband is helping as much as he can. A lot of which involves him rubbing my wrist or arm and helping put some muscle rub on me.
No, I haven’t really made any progress lately with my writing. It sucks and it bothers me a lot more than I’ve been letting anyone in on. I have talked with one friend about some thoughts and he is in no way connected to writing, but knows a little about my writing. Basically he only knows that I write under a pen name. It’s not really something I ever talked about in depth with him (or with a lot of folks). I’m actually even looking at getting back into a writing group and have been looking for one in my local area. I didn’t have any luck the last time I looked and I only just looked again today so we’ll see what comes of this, if anything. I would really like to get back together with like-minded writers and have a routine and habit that’s mine. Wish me luck folks.
Short version: I haven’t gotten much of anything done lately and I’m going to be kicking my own butt into gear.
September sucked. October, please be better. Peace for now folks.
