Morning, just coming up to 11am.
You might wanna start the track at the bottom of this post before reading, I mean you don’t have too, maybe you do that after reading, spring outta bed, grab a water, take a wee and then start to slide and shuffle into some kind of morning mood while dancing with the rainbows of life ;)
Finally got back in front of the computer properly after doing a re-supply run, wiping things done and doing the usual pandemic shuffle we do these days. Happy to report that the mouser household has got supplies for another little while and I might be able to rehydrate those protein nugget curls this weekend. Excite!
Weeks have really become days recently haven’t they, I mean I remember it being monday a moment ago and then boom, midweek came and went, mini bizey has been gaming for the last three days and we didn’t hear a peep — she’s grinding hard no doubt.
I think what it more surprising that times moves fast is when you don’t see many people. I know that’s different for you because you have family around but here normally at this time of year in this sunshine it would be trips out for swims and exercise and a few quick crisp beers in a beer garden.
In some ways it feels like the best RESET you could have. Maybe this is what some people have anywhere in their lives. Maybe they just sprint at something for 6-9 months of a year and then take 90 days out.

I’m certainly looking to calibrate that in my life from now one, that at least for three months of a year as long as I’m financial stable that I take time to be super fucking mindful — either get mentally and physically fit or just learn a new skill that can help me not only elevate but recalibrate.
This has been a great recalibration period, maybe it’s the crispy extra quality .flac vibes soothing my ears this morning, but not having life compressed but as it was meant to be heard with all the little extra details. It’s been tough living life compressed, glad to be lossless right now, in more senses of the world ya know?
We still had 377 people die yesterday from covid, it had dipped down to the few hundreds from like the massive numbers we were seeing but I’m still not seeing anything near what you could call contained. It only felt like a few days ago that we hit 300k dead but we are now at 360k in what feels like time travelling — easy to see now that at least half a million people will die to corona.
Of course I know people get flu, illnesses and it’s part and parcel of life and death right but in such a short period of time it really wakes you up to the space rock we are on and what we do with the moments are important to share. That total confirmed is heading up to six million too, I don’t see the global graph anywhere near a plateau yet, could be a long while for this to recalibrate the world so buckle in.
I still hold onto hope that I get to see you this year, I think anyone that is remotely away from their partner feels the same way about now. It’s been a chunk of time but I’m thankful that we are well, healthy and fed with roofs over our heads. My heart goes out to everyone battling to maintain that on a daily basis, it keeps us human when we manifest.
Gonna be a freaking hot one again today, in the seventies, glad I went early to the shop because there was NO WAY I was walking in super hot weathers so I just up and went and did it, I’m set now for a little while and I even bought red wine (no rum) so if you are down over the weekend or whenever — I’m ready to get some new content in me!
For the last month I’ve had a small glimpse of what life could be like for doing remote work and I realise massively how that idea of a virtual me working while I sleep is possible and something I should accelerate as fast as possible — there is so much more I could be doing in the world especially with the one I love ya know?
Don’t ever question my determination. Just know that it’s just a focus play and I just need to level up some areas to keep up with what’s needed. Damn I’m stoked for making up those curls now that I have 75% of the things I need to make it. Feels like damn space food, oh and btw, the space-x thing might not happen this weekend, think the weather is bad they are saying to do it again right now.
Glad that your business is going well, I know there is gonna be a rapid uptick in that and I have visions of you with your little storage box with all your some and whays as you sketch and build out a new ideas. I see hundreds of SKU’s and you just happily putting together orders and me packaging, checking and putting new labels out of the thermal printer on them (we need to get you one!)
Blimey, I didn’t realise how much I wrote here, it’s like a darn novel. My bad, should be keeping it light for the morning wake up but I kinda was just on that buzzy morning bacon, egg and mushroom sandwich energy which I made as soon as I got back and fired a bunch of lucozade down my neck because it was on special. I never drink this stuff, I know Bella loves it.
Excited to hang today, I know you got some hours in this week so I know that takes the pressure of a little hopefully you won’t have stacks of messages to deal with but if you do then crush your sprint hours and I’ll be at the finishing line waiting for you with a glass of red and some kind of mashed up spud thing with gravy drowning it ;)
Sending Massive Hug Waves,
Heading in the Weekend Vibes,
Friday Night Movie Night?
