Hello all, I’m taking a break for a few weeks until my home situation is sorted out. Over the past few weeks, things have gotten overwhelming to the point I barely even get to my office. The house needs a tonne of work (DIY decoration, painting walls, moving furniture, restructuring rooms, clearing storage spaces, setting up workspaces), all the while navigating the intense emotional weight this place has for both of us, especially with bereavement. I’ve thought about it carefully, and I’ve written to the people I’m writing about to say that I’m pausing several commitments until I get things in order. It’s impossible to get things moving on my end when our home space is so difficult. It’s utterly draining, and we’re going to take time to establish a firm base to build from. Thanks to the Vision Processing, in particular, I know I have everything I need in place to get moving. I’ll get back into it once things are more settled. Painfully aware of all the stuff I need to do for myself and my work, but this has now become the work. Also, we were supposed to get married this weekend, but we had postponed it because of her mother’s passing. Instead of wedding bells, we were smothered with dust and wood filler–but loved it. In a way, I’m removing a bottleneck that’s preventing me from getting to where I want to be. I'm creating the conditions where I can actually follow through consistently rather than in a fragmented way. It starts at home. Appreciate all the accountability and encouragement this group excels in. Just wanted to be transparent and will be back with a stronger foundation. Thank you for understanding. P.S. Also sharing a couple pics from my office/studio. A few months ago, I set up a large drawing, and this is where it's at. I have, however, just taken this piece down to give me more space for clarity. I needed it to get started once I moved here, and I’ll return to it at a later date. Hope you enjoy!
