Day 43 of the Cautionary Tale.

Considering how much sleep I got last night, I do not feel rested.

Today I am getting my eyes checked since it has been a couple of years since that was done. I am hoping to get some answers about what is going on with my right eye.

The rest of the day is fluid. I am going to do what I feel like doing or where the day takes me.

Anime NYC is a no go so we will try again next year. That will make this year consist of one convention and no Disney properties.

I think there is rain in the near future. The clouds are moving fast.

We are on the fourth season of Legend of Korra. It is very different from Avatar the Last Airbender and I like it better. The complex issues they tackle are actually relevant to what is going on today.

I think painting rocks may happen and I want to make some paper dolls to send out to my art friends.

But I really want to get some new puppets and plushies done. I have no idea what it is so hard for me to just sit down and work on them, but they stay in the abstract.

I am frustrated with me right now.

We have been watching the Democratic National Convention. I do agree that AOC should have been given more than a minute to talk. I have a feeling this is not the last time we will be hearing from her.

We got our author copies of Bad Úš Moms. I am quite proud of my story.

I need to write some fiction again I feel like I am sabotaging myself. I feel a weight on my soul that is making me feel guilty for not writing.

I keep telling myself that it is the situation and what is going on in the world and I can’t feel guilty about what I cannot do.

But my squirrel brain is on overdrive and won’t slow down. I am going to try to hand it a metaphorical nut and see if I can get it to slow down.

Right now is a weird time and I find myself at a crossroads with more paths down the road I feel like if I can just navigate my way down the right path. I am going to give myself permission to turn around if it is not working.

I did feed my family this morning and got a few other chores done.

I am grateful for things that break the cycle of doubt within.
