Happy new year! Just came back from the neighbor's place after dinner. 2021 wasn't a rocky year as 2020, but it was the year of getting myself up from the things 2020 threw at... well, I guess, at everyone!
Still picking up the pieces, but now I am prepared for many things. All I need is to put things in order now.
Well, it's been quite the day. My time was taken out of my hands, but I'll forgive it. After all, it's the New Year celebration, so I shouldn't be really hard on everyone else today. Besides, I think I needed to go out. I learned new stuff, such as to why they named the grove like that, and it's because the double-striped thick-knee. I also knew that the name of the area in which te grove is located actually comes from this flower, and not the name of an obscure indigenous chieftain from history. Anyone can fall into that trap; they usually had very similar sounding names.
I also have the opportunity to plant grape vines. It'll take a while, which means perseverance and a lot of patience. I'm waiting for the correct moon phase to plant it. I can't have a vine at home, so I'll be donating the seedlings to the grove, and to the community center.
Skipped the Burpees. But I fixed everything now... even the format for my log. It's an overwhelming list, but it clears up everything. I'm also using a notebook to schedule everything, and write down plans for the day and stuff. I'm still planning things ahead, but it feels like I'm also acting.
“There is no favorable wind for the sailor who doesn’t know where to go”
― Seneca
I heard this a while quote a while back. I wrote it down on the notebook and it's the first thing that greets me. And, right on top of it, the Vegvísir is drawn. I shouldn't veer off course.

I'm a bit behind. Congrats on Punch Out and Fit December! I love your goals. Goal-making is a favourite hobby of mine. I've just got to try to see mine through! Hope you have better luck. As far as dancing is concerned, perhaps you might consider the Bollywood stuff that Fremen was doing.
Closest to that is picking up Belly Dancing once again. I'm fine with it, but I don't have enough space to move around, and with Belly Dancing I might get a partner too. In fact, I believe the style that takes the less amount of space at the moment is Shuffle.
Taking the opportunity to post the log, btw. Nothing interesting today other than the fact that I'm going through writer's block... again... on editing...
Creating new stuff is fine, but I'm overthinking editing. I owe the Nightcap. That'll go on my phone.

I did not do a nightcap that night. In fact, I woke up until very late yesterday, struggling with editing mostly. It was worth it, though. I finally broke from the block, and now I can carry on.
Hence, I didn't post last night.
I had to switch days too. I walked quite a lot yesterday, and ended up with a sore butt instead. So, I focused only on the upper body. I don't feel any better today, but I'm going to incorporate the lower body anyway.
I also found a good sport to write without distractions outside. Of course, I can't go there with my laptop, but I can definitely write down on notebooks instead. If I wanted music, all I have to do is tune in the radio and that's it. Thankfully, there are a couple of stations that put good music in my area, plus there is one that has good shows, inclusing one with fairy tales and other kinds of tales for all public.
