I feel exhausted. Not sure why, but I just am. I think I might just be mentally drained. Work has been very draining. There was some drama going on at work so that was also taking some of my energy. The lab supervisor and I are also planning on moving around some stuff at work to make room for the sample accessioning team since right now my team is just all over the place.

Not much happened today, to be honest. My hun had boy’s night and I just cooked spaghetti for dinner. And after dinner, I decided to clean my fountain pen. Finally. I forgot how I love the weight of that pen when filled with ink. I would use it more often but fountain pen-friendly notebooks are a bit expensive. I tried using it in my journal today, it didn’t glide on the paper as smoothly as I wanted but at least the paper held up and there was no feathering. But I also think that this is the wrong type of paper for a fountain pen since my journal is a sketchbook technically. 

Speaking of journaling, I really need to start plopping colors on my pages again. I’ve been utilizing stickers right now but I miss having colors on the page. I should really start using the watercolor paints that my hun got me. And I also really need to get into drawing again. I have my sketchbook with me every day, along with my pen case. I just need to get on it while I’m at work – bored.

Reading has been a struggle lately. I find myself losing focus after a few pages. It’s annoying me. It is not the book’s fault either. The few pages I read make me laugh. I enjoy those few pages. But then I lose interest. I don’t know. Maybe I’m just making excuses. Maybe I just don’t have discipline. I just need to sit and read. Who knows, I’m just not one to force myself to read.
