I had this post created last week and apparently it never posted here. Did on Patreon, free to the public, but... well, here it is late.
To be totally honest, I don't have a lot to go on about this week. I am working a new part-time job, which is naturally eating into a lot of my creative time. This week was particularly unproductive because the job is a moderately physical one (stocking primarily, but some cashiering) so I was coming home after work physically exhausted and needing to refresh myself however possible. That meant a lot of rest.
Fortunately, the human body is ridiculously adaptable, and just like with any new fitness/workout/physical regimen, reaching a new normal is surprisingly rapid. I'm very thankful for my massage gun. Luckily, I'm only stocking two days this week, so I should be less worn out so much, leading to spending my evenings doing the creative. I was able to pick at things some this week.
Even better, this job is definitely not permanent. The location where I'm working is closing in the next two months or so, which is just buying me time to get more creative feelers out and try to find some freelance writing or voice work to help pay the bills. Until then, the physical retail job it is.
At least I'm getting in exercise. Long-term low-impact walking and some lifting, so cardio and strength endurance. Low weight - high repetition. I call it a win.
