The Lake Of Coffee

Good evening everyone - how has your Sunday been? This time, I am actually posting this on a Sunday, so I haven't done as well as the last couple of weeks! Oh well...

This weeks updates on my site:

• 4 concert photography photos in StormCloud Photography (of Tigress from their 2017 tour with Counterfeit),

• 1 blog post of a crafting project in Cloud's Silver Linings (another Knitted project - I Can Knit A Rainbow (Scrunchie) (wixsite.com)),

• 7 Cloud's Silver Linings Designs - Book Quote Designs (from the book Hereafter - found in the Cloud's Silver Linings Designs tab!!!),

• 3 book reviews in My Books & Reviews - A collection of these can be seen at the bottom of this blog update, however reviews are all attached to the photos on the webpage.

My personal update:

• Since the last update, I have read 3 books.

• My current read is I Was Here by Gayle Foreman.

• I have had so much going on that I haven't been able to find the time to create any new designs - I hope I will be able to make and share some this week.

• I finished Bitten before the last update was posted. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I'm a little sad that it's over.

• I started watching Thirteen Reasons Why. I have previously watched season 1 & 2, but I read the book lately and it made me want to watch through the series.

• I have completed a couple of crafts in the last week - including trying out something new - Felting! I've never tried it before, and it was a lot of fun, but quite stressful, although in an enjoyable way (I am a perfectionist so that probably doesn't help).

I know this update is short but it's getting late and I am so exhausted. I have too much going on and I need to start cutting back. I haven't had the chance to start my course, or craft something properly or well, or even create my designs (which I thoroughly enjoy).

On top of all the things I am doing, I have been doing regular household tasks, and doing some DIY as well (building, sorting and filling a craft area, putting a shelf and new CD rack into my room, and more).

It's taking everything out of me - I don't really have time to do anything.

I am trying to figure something out to give up, even temporarily, as I can't keep up with everything I have to do. I don't even think I've eaten yet today as I didn't have time to eat breakfast or make a lunch to take with me to work, and I haven't had the chance to make myself dinner yet with trying to get this all done.

If updating my website and updating my blog in these updates is what takes a hit, I will let you all know.

I hope you have all had a great week, and I hope I am back with a better and more upbeat update next week.

Looking at this photo is actually making me feel even more tired, wow! I could do with one of these coffees, although it is nearly 11pm! A lake of coffee is more like what I need to be fair. (wait, that works with the title of one of these books - I think I have found my blog title haha!... I think I need to go to bed, I have just found that way funnier than it actually is)!
