okay, seriously, for REAL this time, I actually have some time to relax and calm down coming up. I've got tomorrow off, and then after sunday I'll likely have a few days to myself as well. today was also a very relaxing day at work, nearly nobody came in and I was able to chill out for most of my shift.
things are going well! I had a lovely conversation with my therapist the other day and it's been really nice to learn more about myself and make progress on my coping skills. it's interesting, the way that I keep finding out just how much autism has effected my life to this point, and yet still there is more I haven't realized yet. I've been able to set structures for myself that help me navigate the world so much better than I was before, it's great.
also, I've joined the Get Your Words Out challenge for 2025! I'm hoping to really focus in earnest on the Aperture Record and make progress towards a cohesive draft, and start publishing some of the chapters soon! however, since I know myself, I'm also making room for other things like JAWS and Asteroid City fics so I don't get frustrated and feel stuck working on the same thing over and over. I need a bit of variety, at least.
I've finally got the new place almost entirely unpacked and partially decorated, and am planning on visiting some antique stores soon to keep furnishing it. also eyeing some teacup and saucer display racks for the kitchen, since I now have kitchen space enough to actually do that!! so exciting. it definitely makes me feel a lot more inspired, having a space I can look forward to returning to is helping a looot with motivating me to pick up my creative hobbies again ^U^
all exciting things! I'm really looking forward to this new year, my one resolution was to recognize and appreciate any moments of happiness that come my way, so hopefully I can focus a bit more on positivity than I did last year! ok now off to do some fun stuff
