It has been hard to write lately. I am not sure why. I do know that I feel like a lack of audience or audience interaction does affect my motivation. When people engage or there are a lot of views, it makes me want to write more and it makes me want to connect. Also,…
#48 Grumpy
I woke up to dark cloud outside of my window. I really wanted to see the sun. I woke up with my legs and feet aching. I was in a bad mood. I am not sure why. Grouchy and grumpy like the Grinch. I spent most of the day being a bad mood. Then I…
#47 Checkpoints
