The worst part of the plant stuff is done. I still need to repot my manzano and prune back the red hot poker, and buy some veg to make dinner and meals for the next few days. Plus figure out what to do with all this rosemary I pruned off, and stock up on some oil and rice so I don't need to do it after my trip...
...and despite all my going on about it, I've yet to start on my scotch bonnet pepper ferment. I gotta do that today so I can move that plant out onto the common area too.
Plus I still haven't organised a full itinerary for my trip in 10 days time, I have an idea of where to go but need to sort out accom asap...
Argh, I want to just lie down and enjoy the rest of the day! I have a busy week ahead next week too, stuff on after work every single day ๐ซ and the weekend needs to be set aside for packing. I think I need to really be disciplined with my work end times the next week. No hanging around for a yarn
Good luck and same here.
I have a lot of household and garden tasks, necessary shopping and I feel very motivated to do lots of art practice. I will have to start getting up early if I want to get stuff done!! ๐ Thankfully I am bored with tv and politics/news now so that won't be wasting my time.
It's definitely a good feeling to be away from the news/politics, not draining my energy unnecessarily. Though I find I am still tempted to retreat into online spaces/phone when I need some downtime and am stressed out or annoyed by people, I'd like to find some other outlets that I'll actually stick to.
