Things are... just kinda crazy right now tbh.
There’s just... so much going on. Stuff with both schools (college and RAMA), my low energy, my practice, identity issues (I think I might be aro) and, of course, the fires.
Pretty much the entire state of Oregon is on fire right now. I’ve been particularly stressed because one of the biggest fires is about 30 miles away from where I live. I should be fine; it’s unlikely that it will ever reach us due to the topography, but it is still stressful. That, and the fact that it looks like the apocalypse outside. This is the view from my apartment:
The air quality is horrendous, too. Like... hazardous level. So I’ve been kind of locked up inside, trying to keep myself calm and sane.
Bleghh so much not good stuff lately. Here are some good things that I am grateful for: Yesterday, I made homemade bread for the first time! It went super well, and I am really excited to start getting into baking. I even got a mixer today, because I am absolutely not mixing that thick of dough by hand again. Also, another reason that I’m excited to bake is because I can use them as offerings to Skadi, which she loves.
Let’s see... what else... I have acupuncture this weekend! Which will help my low energy and imbalance. Besides that, I have actually been feeling a tad bit better the past couple of days. Yesterday, I felt like doing some Qigong and I did, and this morning I woke up and felt like someone or something was calling me to the Astral, so I did a little bit of work up there.
Fall is almost here. I just... need to be patient. And breathe. And try to remember that things will be okay.
That’s it for now. I hope that everyone has a wonderful rest of their day.
Blessings!
