January; an inspiring yet depressing month?

Good morning!

The start of the year have some inspiring vibes~ everyone making resolutions, seeing otherā€™s which can give you ideas.. while at the same time Iā€™m already getting discouraged šŸ˜…


Ā 

To be frank, I know the weather doesnā€™t help either; the weather here has been wild! Freezing & unfreezing has my allergies kicking my butt- even taking my prescription allergy meds Iā€™m not only drowning in mucus, but iā€™m also needing to take benadryl before bed too as my eyes be incredibly itchy šŸ˜… All that wreck havoc on my energy levels, iā€™ve decided to start taking my Vitamin D back to help me a bit..

Weā€™re still in Seasonal depression season after all.. although mine decided to show itā€™s face always when itā€™s time to party and celebrate. Almost without fail, Iā€™m left feeling hollowed and sad.

Ā 

My goal this year is a bit more than I did last- not only am I wanting more nonfiction again, but iā€™ve added my French goal aswell as audiobooks.. and iā€™m already discouraged that I only finished one book/donā€™t read fast enough and we werenā€™t even half way of the month šŸ„²

Iā€™m really struggling to find audiobooks as iā€™m so picky for the voices.. too strong accent or a even slightly annoying voice to my ears and itā€™s out- while I find maybe nonfictions audiobooks would be the best course, the ones that iā€™d want are unavailable thus far on my libby.

Iā€™ve also started reading two books; a nonfiction with multiple stories that I can read at work, aswell as a fiction novelĀ ā€œout of characterā€Ā that I can read before bed. Iā€™m really hoping this can help me, as iā€™ve seen some nice imput on goals and such on otherā€™s blog! In the same vein, if I do nonfiction audiobook, I could juggle two at the same time, ithink.

Ā 

As for blogging, I was doing so good!! I scheduled a whole 3posts in advance at the start of the year to drop back down šŸ˜† again having the ideas running away from me- while weā€™ve been seeing alot of ā€œbest ofā€ 2023, I donā€™t really recall anything of the like that I remember or could do myself.

How has your year started- do you also feel this?

  1. I am very picky with audiobooks too and the voice must be just fitting for the story!

    1. There was one book I so wanted to try.. but it was read by an AUS voice, which was the author, but I just.. ;-; So hard for me to fully understand
