I'm stoked that this summer of record heat, weeks of 105-110 or higher temps are over...
But that also means the slow, cold, and dark weeks are getting closer.
Trying to build up better habits now before those days get here...
-Stepping up workouts again
-Doing larger creative works, whether it's painting or charcoal, sculptural experiments or more involved digital work
-Getting some consistency rather than feast-famine cycles for productivity and practice
-Finding new dishes to make, I don't have the same food accesses I had in Hawaii so changing up some dishes (esp since I'm back to the main cook in my living situation again lol)
Feels like I wasted summer, but overtime hit hard (covid hit harder)... some wins tho:
-Got a painting into a local gallery's show
-Some decent roadtrips up to the mountains, LA for an event, with others planned
-Back to some photo work (haven't done much since the move)
-Did manage a trip out to New England briefly, mostly around Salem to see close peoples ^_^
Anyone else tallying up summer success and prepping for the winter months already?
