Fall has officially begun as the fog sits low in the valley & the rain taps on our roof. I just finished a painful period where it hurt to walk & breathe, but luckily I didn’t get a fever this time around. The COVID 19 has kept my husband home for the last month working from home. NOW, it’s the bus strike keeping us home.

I support the bus drivers as their pay doesn’t reflect our current economic standing. It sucks however as I am trapped at home & we have to plan when we’re going to drive into town. The best part is that neither party has spoken to another for over a week so now the government is involved. Such is life.

I have Finally figured out how to stream music in the living room from my Spotify, let’s just say that took longer than it should have done. But hey I can now listen to music mixes without having to worry about draining the juice on my phone. It’s really great actually having the music mobile in the house.

Tomorrow is a busy, crazy day & so is the rest of the week but hey I get out of the house & will see people. Something I am really looking forward to. I will also get my haircut, something that’s badly needed. The weather is supposed to be rain & foggy with partial sunshine. We’ll see if that actually will happen?

Till next time, smile we’re only living through a pandemic & soon it’ll be actually get cold outside, but we have global warming so I doubt it?

I am realizing that I am more a writer & creative person than I am working in a shoe store or making coffee. Don’t get me wrong I love coffee & always will, but I want to do something that is creative & that is me. My husband had the brilliant idea that I should learn photoshop & I am. One day at a time. I hate tutorials because I feel that they are too fast or too slow so I am teaching myself how to use it.

The weather is changing & the skies are grayer & the rain colder, but the air is fresher. Fall has officially arrived. Our masks came in the mail yesterday a stark reminder that the pandemic is still very much with us. I had to wear a mask into town today & I always feel like crying when I have to put it on. Maybe it’s my fear of catching COVID 19 or maybe it’s just a harsh reality I have to get used to.

They came & clear cut the part of the property that wasn’t ours & it looks like crap. We think the hedgehog may be pregnant again & she has so few bushes to hide herself in after they destroyed her habitat. It makes me sad, he could’ve just used to photoshop and removed all the trees from the property, it would’ve been cheaper than coming & stripping the land. Enough about the sad state of our surroundings.

I was told that I should consider myself an author yesterday, which I guess I am since I have given out a book a few years back. I prefer writing to many things except hiking & being outdoors that I love. I am still using my summer downy because it hasn’t been cold enough outdoors yet to switch to the winter downy.

I take solace in my husband & hope I can do him proud learning photoshop, I also am looking for a boss that doesn’t look at creativity as a bad thing but rather a good thing. Someone who has hired creative people before & understand that our intellect is astute & our emotional intelligence is on point. Till next time, rest in peace Ruth Bader Ginsburg & chin up, fall is a beautiful time of the year.

It’s confusing, everyday the #’s change—so it’s hard to keep up. All I know is it’s getting really confusing. But of course all I know is that my hubby is working from home & I am trying to be inspired by photoshop everyday. Something that is working & then not. That’s how it is when you’re creative person, you can’t always be creative.

I am working on a new book & trying to get inspiration at my favorite cafe that has gone back to COVID hours. I’ve to sign in to hang out which makes sense since, if I was exposed I’d want that phone call. It’s official Fall is here in all it’s glory & fog.

I am alright though, spending too much time in the house but is that anything new. I doubt it. I wanted to send a shout out across the globe to my new readers. Thank you!
