Daily Log
Slept in today! 5:45am, which is late for our family. I’m going to be one of those people who says this: I can’t drink red wine, it gives me a headache. I have a headache.
Heat advisory in effect today, so feeling very grateful for AC and nowhere to be.
Took a lovely afternoon nap, though it didn’t do much to get me in the zone. I’ve noticed that can be a common rhythm for me; a day of sharp focused productivity followed by a day where my brain just doesn’t wanna.
On the plus side, I did finally recommit to the idea of Vesper Avenue. I love astrology, tarot, all that stuff … I can and will probably put some of that here on the personal space, but I want a place to kind of go “all in.”
Next project will be moving Vesper Avenue back to Squarespace from Showit, which is a bummer because I LOVE the Showit team so much … but Squarespace’s all-in-one is just so hard to beat, especially now that it’s allows for paid memberships/blogs.
We’re moving back to Intermittent Fasting, so no eating between 4pm and 8am. It always makes me feel so much better to not eat late at night! I sleep better, feel lighter …
Last meal was a bit of a “clean out the fridge” kind of snack. Romaine, some cheese, a bit of ranch, sprinkled with fritos inside of a tortilla. Pure elegance.
Anth had a show tonight, so I enjoyed a quiet end to the evening with my sketchbook, some peaceful piano music with rain sounds, and a wonderfully early bed time.
