JOURNALS

Today was a bit of a mixed bag, to be honest. I started off on a stress-free note, opting to take the day off and just chill. The plan was to grab my laptop and other things I left at the studio yesterday, then head back home. I had a couple of minor tasks like recording a bit of video and sending out some messages, but nothing too intense.

Once I got home, I set up the Xbox on the dining room table, which was fun until my old enemy, the headache, made an appearance. I suspect it might be my glasses setup. It's fine when I'm at the studio, but playing on the Xbox from the dining room table seems to be triggering eye strain. So, I had to lie down for a bit and even took a nap to get rid of it. Annoying, but necessary.

Despite the headache, it was nice to just decide to take a day off. However, not visiting the estate agent left me feeling like I'm stuck in a Schrodinger's box with the studio sale. No new calls from them or emails from the solicitor, so I suspect status quo prevails—no progress. It’s baffling how things just seem to be in limbo despite everyone's eagerness.

On a lighter note, I did ponder on how to integrate a bit of meditation into my gym routine. Didn't actually start it today but brainstorming how it might work felt like a step forward. Might need some YouTube guidance on that one.

Enjoying the day off, despite its hiccups, made me realise I'll probably want more downtime when the studio saga concludes—assuming it ever does. Oh, and I think it's definitely time to book another visit to the optician. Eye strain is a vibe killer.

All in all, a day of small wins and minor annoyances but still better than overloading myself with work.
