Above is the cover for N for Not Human made by me of course. I want it to feel lol a grimy book that you would think twice to pick up but it also intrigues you?
Well today has been a bit of a downer. I slept in because I messed up my schedule and waking up at 2 felt like shit. I haven't gotten anything done even though I wanted a relaxed day, it didn't feel relaxing.
I didn't even want to do this blog! But I'm trying and pushing to be accountable and stay with things. Damn it...
I feel like today is a failure but there were some good. We got groceries, the a/c broke again but Phil found a way to get us three portable a/c thingies on a payment plan so we won't die in this Florida heat and will have money for the rest of the month.
I haven't written anything but my weekly check in, morning pages, and some chapter tasks for the Artists Way book. I have been sticking with that and I'm about to start chapter five. It's been pretty great so far actually. Some things don't really apply to me and my life so I slightly adapt them to work for me. I mean this book was write in 1995 so I have to take that into account. I'm also disabled, can't drive, have no expendable money, and have to adjust to me and my life.
I did notice that it's basically a therapy book about healing your inner child through art and creativity. It's brilliant and I've already done a these practices for ten year now. But they are super helpful and I do recommend it. Even though it talks about god a lot (I used to be Christian and my parents were cult like with it so I have A LOT of religious trauma) she talks about it more like the Great Creator or the universe and encourages everyone to is their own perfected terminology for this great creative power. Usually if I see a bunch of god talk, I dip out but I greatly appreciated the way that she spoke about it and explained the reason she used the term god through the book.
The one problem of the day is my body is not letting me eat. It's 11:30pm and I still haven't eaten the lovely taco that is sitting in front of me. It's hard when this happens but all I can do is try to relax, smoke a bowl and wait for the feeling to pass. Hopefully soon. Alright that's all for today.
Edit: I wrote! I made a new goal that every day I'm going to write 1,000 words and today I wrote 1,064! It was in two different books but that's fine! Haha at least most of the writing was in N for Not Human.
