It's a whole new month. Holy shit. So, is this post like a one month check up?
Last month felt like it whizzed by. Like we're all drinking on New Year's and next thing you know, it's the next month. There's a little bit of gray area in between, but that only feels like a memory, or a vague daydream. Like maybe it did happen, but we're not too sure.
Just crazy how time flies.
One thing from last month that's an ongoing thing is how tired I feel. Woke up late again today, like I always do when I don't have to be up early, when I don't need an alarm. My sleep schedule is all messed up. But it's all because of the money job; has me working bad hours.
But, since it's the start of a new month, what can we recap about January? What happened during that quick gray area we talked about?
I know I worked a lot. A lot of late night shifts, not going to bed until three in the morning because my brain wouldn't shut off, only to do it all over again.
I wrote quite a bit. I didn't miss a day of writing. I found an old unfinished poetry book I'd started way back before high-school, I think. I originally said it was started around 2013, but I'm really thinking it was around 2009 to 2010. There's no dates or anything so I don't know for sure, and my memory is shit. And I finished filling up said poetry book. Which is incredible. I tried finishing it back in 2018, but then I lost the book again. After over ten years, I'm glad it's finished. Now it can rest.
I have been trying to read a lot more. It's working a bit, but the late work thing messes it up.
I've been taking more moments to enjoy things, relax, feel happy. I just think with the world being as it is, every moment counts. And since this past month went by like crazy, I hope I'm making the most of it.
I don't believe there was much else. Yeah, I realize how boring I am. I don't do anything extravagant or out there, but at least what I do still makes me happy. That's all that really matters.
Until the next month's check in, be safe, take care of yourselves, and peace.
