It's that time of week again! Time for another Grotto Gazette. This week seemed to go by fast and slow. I've been full of cold, so that probably hasn't helped things. As well as that I dealt with more ~feelings~. Overall my week has been alright though.
Where should I start 🤔. For this weeks Grotto Gazette I will write about each day briefly. Trying a different format and seeing how it goes.
Well, on Monday I had a meeting with some self-employed people. They are going to help me become self-employed. My first task with them is to write a draft business plan. I am excited for this part of my journey.
Tuesday was a productive day, and also the day my cold started full force. I wrote, and published, my first edition of Grotto Gaming. Featuring the game: Rimworld. My plan for the next Grotto Gaming is to write about the Atelier Marie remake.
Wednesday was a special day for V. She had her year 1 leavers assembly. She got a special certificate, and brought home her school work for the year. It's hard to believe that in 6 weeks she will be moving up into year 2. She's growing so fast 🥺.
Thursday was when my ~feelings~ made themselves more known. Possibly made worse by my cold. I had to deal with feelings of; worthlessness, unimportance, insecurities, and loneliness. There was probably more ~feelings~ but they are the main four that crept up. I'm not 100% sure where these feelings stemmed from. It could have just been the cold and feeling sorry for myself, or it could be something different. I dealt with these feelings by acknowledging I was feeling a certain way, then I proceeded to try to distract myself from my negative thoughts. I am trying to learn different ways to deal with difficult feelings, but it is hard to remember in the moment.
During Thursday evening I also purchased some bracelets for me, M, and D. I will have two pink ones, while M and D will have their own black ones. I think they are super cute! When D next visits I plan on taking photos of us all wearing our bracelets 🤭. I do plan on taking more selfies with the three of us too.
Friday was a simple day. M was off work, and it was V's last day at school. We spent some time visiting my mum, and then spent some time together at home.
Saturday was also simple. During the day we all just chilled, and took it easy as M also has a cold and it seemed V may be catching it too. On the evening me, M, and D played Stardew together, and then played a little bit of Minecraft. I need to think of more things me and D can do online together 🤔. The games we both have are limited until he gets a new laptop 😅.
And then that brings us to today! A normal Sunday, however a slight bit different as V's bedtime is a bit later during the holidays. Today I am feeling very full of cold. My cough is the most annoying part 😅.
So far, the coming week looks uneventful for me. I do have a job centre meeting mid-week 😮💨. Other than that I will probably be spending a lot of time at my mums. That is the usual during the school holidays 😂.
My question to you this week: What do you do online to spend time with Long-Distance friends or partners?
