A normal month for the most part, if we can ignore some of the worst stuff. Let's have a look at what I've been up to for the last few days.
I've put out a couple new pages in my worldbuilding projects, and even started up working a new card game. It is inspired by Inscryption which I have enjoyed watching for a good time and it has become part of my other conworld project.
I've put up nine new ideas and finished writing four of them. The backlog is still very long but it is at least within one page.
As with last month, nothing at all. I don't really even program at work anymore; it's all mainly configuration work.
It has been difficult for me to progress my careers search, mainly because I feel constantly out of action points to do anything meaningful. This is kind of the pattern for a while actually, and although it is unfortunate that it went this way I think I should have expected it.
To that end however I have talked to a counsellor about it, who suggests I should talk up to someone about it. Which I did, and he suggested I should get a career coach. I think I will do that later today, after lunch or something like that.
I have felt less despondent in the latter half of the month, so that is at least better. I don't feel very tired and out of brainpower anymore, but things could still be better a little bit.
However, my physical health have gone a little bit worse over the time, not the least due to a ballooning body weight due to the stress from earlier plus stress eating and skin problems acting up again. With the current weather being all dry and stuff it has gotten worse over time.
At the end of November I have started to write in the new scheduler which has now become a more fundamental part of my life. I feel like writing in the scheduler like this is a mixed bag when it comes to doing stuff, but I am now at least more cognisant of what I have been doing in the past which is the positive part. (It takes a lot of time which is the negative part).
Family remains a bit of a stress source as house chores remain completed by mum and there's very little input I or anyone else can do to help out. For me it's because my DEX is through the floor and I have a fairly high tolerance to filt so I can't detect when things need cleaning.
Speaking of which I really should get around to doing spring cleaning around my room.
