A Wednesday (and vlogmas)

I feel like all I do these days is realise I haven't been doing something that I really enjoy. I think I've been figuring myself out a bit over the past year or so (a forever project I reckon) and also dealing with general difficult life stuff (and everything else 2016 has thrown at us!) and thinking about what I want to do next with my work and I'm a little all over the place. I feel like once the mania of Christmas is out of the way I'll be able to settle into some sort of routine and I'll hopefully manage to fit all the things I like back into my days. I mean, just because you like something doesn't mean you have to be doing it all the time but I feel like I've unintentionally let some things go and not noticed and I want to get them back. Like taking photos while I'm doing something boring like walking to the city, how have I stopped doing that as often?! I got a bit caught up in how tiring things can be and not wanting to add stopping to take photos into what I'm doing that day but then that just removes some joy out of something which makes it worse, not easier. It's sad and I want it to stop so I'm going to try real hard ^_^




I started the day finishing off some orders and packing them up for my second Post Office trip of the week. I always feel bad if people order something right after I've just been to post stuff and try to do another run later in the week so they don't have to wait as long. I love it when people want names on their peas, it's always really sweet.





I know I'm not the only one but this really is my favourite time of year. The lack of light can get me down but I love being able to walk without getting overheated and everything is just so pretty. And when there is a sunny day but it's still cold, uh, that's my favourite thing ever.





We put some old shoes outside with all the best intentions of growing plants in them but apparently that doesn't happen if you don't do the planting and after care so all we've got is a lot of moss. But I love moss so it's worked out ok  ^_^

I've been doing vlogmas! I had a go last year and did it in 4 day chunks but this year I'm uploading at the end of each day. I figure in the evening it's too dark to film anything well and all I really do is die a little bit on the sofa and watch X-Files with or without some more work to do while I'm there so I've been editing and uploading early evenings. With a week down I'm feeling a little like what's the point, my days are fairly repetitive and not all that exciting but I am enjoying doing it so I'm going to keep it up. I'm sure I'll appreciate them being there at some point in the future, even if I do end up with 24 videos that are essentially the same lol.
Here's day 7, the same day as these photos are from. If you're interested I'd love it if you subscribed to my youtube channel. I'm still finding my feet in terms of what I want to do with videos but I don't see myself stopping any time soon.
