This year I'm not planning on buying tons of other Christmas decor besides our tree, but I saw these two things and I had to have them. It's still too early to use them and have them out (despite the fact that the city is already decorated everywhere), but I'm super excited for when that time comes. I'm already feeling some of the Christmas cheer, and it's lovely.
Today I started writing the first chapter of my dissertation. I didn't write too much, but it's something, and I'm on track -- according to the timeline I gave myself. I also continued my research into the historical context of my chosen research question.
I definitely haven't been feeling too motivated to work, but I'm trying my best. This week I'll be experimenting with a new routine, so hopefully that works out for me.
I've also been writing the first draft of my first novel. I have no publishing aspirations, at least as of now, but I love writing and I had an idea floating in my mind. Why not put it on paper? It's been a fun journey so far.
