I haven't forgotten about you

hells_half_acreI know I keep coming here and making promises that I can't keep. On my last post a friend kindly pointed out that the only one putting pressure on myself to deliver was... well, myself. So, I decided to cut myself some slack. Let's face it, this is a crazy year. We all have a lot on our minds, and at the end of a long day, quite often I just feel too tired mentally to do a rewatch or work on the clothing catalog.
I do want to get things done, don't get me wrong - but, I'm also dealing with personal matters, starting a second job, and also figuring out if there's a way that I can get the draft of book presentable enough to pitch in the fall. (Odds are unlikely, but a girl can dream.)
So, my "end of April" goal shifted to an "end of June" goal, and my end of June goal is shifting to an "end of summer" goal. And it might just be "before season 15 actually ends" goal in the end. They still can't open the Canadian border to non-essential visitors due to Covid, so who the heck knows when that will happen. (We know it WILL happen... and they could technically do it now if they paid all the actors/American to quarantine for 2 weeks first, I think, but it's probably more cost-effective to wait and see if the border opens in July when they reassess. Odds are not looking in their favour though.)
The good news is that I DID get some of the stuff that was occupying my time done. And my newest hyperfixation is waning to be a little less all-consuming and a bit more normal-level of interest.
I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy.
I will hopefully have rewatches for you over the course of the summer. I had also wanted to write more fic, but I'm not about to make any promises there, as at this rate, I don't see myself having free time again until October, if I'm lucky.
