I am a comfort spender, always have been, it is a lot easier now, with online shopping and Amazon and I , really was the best of friends, but in the last month, not one thing have, I had delivered, a few digital downloads of books and a magazine, but that is all.
The desire to get a new camera is , how, I have changed, I set a goal and stick to it, could I have just bought a new one, yes, but I am happier to save for it, I am thinking December 2023 will be when I get my next full frame, it will be mirrorless, then after that, it will be saving for the new lenses, that I will want.
I learned yesterday, that I can still get down and lie on the ground, such a small thing, but it made me so happy, I laid on my stomach, I laid on my left and right and a few contorted positions, as well, all tested for the sake of my art.
I have been in a bit of a rut, but it is weather and time of year related, pretty much the same most years, some years are worse, than this, but come end of this month, I will step things, up, lighter mornings, lighter evenings.
My January nightmares, have been the least ever, only one night that has been really bad, the trauma of all those years ago, but for the most part, nothing, most nights, I have slept well, well for me anyway. But never will forget 4 people lost there lives, that night.
I am so close to being 58, the number, means nothing to me, never really got caught up on, that whole age thing, as long, as I can do, what I can and want too, all that really matters too me.
My reason for getting down on the ground, Snowdrops like seeing the first Daffodils bursting through the ground in the woods, is the start of change, for me, the snow drop flowers first, will be a few weeks till there, at there best in my little woods, how seeing these little things, lifts the spirits so much..
