Hey everyone,
So… remember that “be right back – moving house” post I left in August?
Yeah. That turned into a much longer break than I intended.
I didn’t mean to vanish without a word, and I’m sorry for going quiet. Life kind of exploded all at once (as it tends to do), and I’ve been in survival mode trying to keep up with everything.
Since August, so much has changed. I moved in with Li (💖), started a new job (equal parts exciting and exhausting), and have been learning to navigate a whole new version of daily life. Adjusting to all that, especially while juggling mental health and neurodivergent needs, has been a challenge. Some days I feel like I’m thriving, and others I’m just getting through the next hour. But I’m learning. Slowly.
I also started university… and then deferred my module when it became too much to handle on top of everything else. The good news is I’m giving it another go in October. Fingers crossed for a smoother attempt the second time around.
And because my brain loves a new fixation to hyper-focus on, I’ve somehow fallen headfirst into the world of tennis. Yep. Tennis. Watching matches, learning everything about the players, losing hours to YouTube highlight reels—it’s been weirdly comforting to immerse myself in something structured and intense and kind of ridiculous.
I miss reading. I miss writing. I miss this. So I’m dipping my toe back in—no promises on posting schedules just yet, but I wanted to check in and say hello. And thank you if you’re still here after all this time. That means more than you know.
How have you been? What have you been reading lately? I’d love to hear from you.
