My sleep schedule is off. My weight is over. My creativity is stifled even though I have major ideas I want to tinker with. All because of this move prep. Cannot wait to eventually get settled so I can correct these annoyances.
Micro
Self Care
After months of traveling on the road for work, poor nutrition habits and then stop working, my body has had enough. I’ve crammed the 15 pounds lost last year back inside. My blood pressure has suffered. The clothes are tighter. I feel like crap.
I resubscribed to Apple Fitness+ because gym membership is not viable right now. Meal plans are being made.
It’s time to eat lean, train mean and get lean.

Unintended Consequences
I hear the phrase “Don’t Care. Didn’t Ask.” quite a bit and only recently realized it hits harder than expected.
Hot
After three years of owning this MacBook Pro with the M1 silicon chip, I got to hear the internal fan for the very first time. This machine can take quite a lot, but while I was importing images into Lightroom from an external hard drive, I was also uploading other images to the photo archive site all while typing up some notes. Impressive.
Suspension
Ever since voluntarily leaving my job one month ago I’ve done my best to keep busy but this is slowing down. I’m grateful to have some dedicated time to complete a few personal projects and work on a few more. But I am in a state of suspense right now.
I recall the Israelites wandering in the desert waiting to enter the promised land and can sympathize.
Purgatorio- part two of the Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri, written in the early bits of the 14th century, feels familiar as I may be taking slow steps to advance myself forward to Paradiso.
The Aleph is a point in space that contains all other points. Anyone who gazes into it can see everything in the universe.
I understand these references are over-dramatic concerning my feelings, but who can deny their own thoughts of a personal situation? I am on the outside looking in. I can seek where I want to go and again, am in a state of suspension in arriving there.
With circumstances and situations in flux, I’ll just settle in and keep busy awaiting the trumpets to sound so we can march forward and into the Promised Land.
Breaking In The Ricoh
I took the new Ricoh GR out for a walk yesterday to see how it performs under harsh lighting conditions. The images are just as sharp and vibrant as expected. But ugh, the scenery and subject matter is still the same so not really chuffed about them.
I crave something new and interesting to capture. I’m done documenting Tulsa.

Finally. Pt 2
It’s only been two weeks since I ordered the Ricoh GR camera then I finally get this notification:
Finally.
The Quiet Room (Book 2 in Rabbits series) by Terry Miles 2024-02-07 to 2024-03-10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polaroid
When you see two packs of expensive Polaroid film discounted, you pick them up every time. 2 for $12 instead of $36? Yep.
Almost There
I have successfully switched my Apple ID to the current email address, signed out of most of my devices from old ID and logged in properly. There are some residual issues with the old ID on some devices that I need to sort out soon but not now.
