👑 Queen Edition: Jezebel (RIP 🕊️) + Rashida Tlaib + Keke Palmer + Victoria Monet + Lessie Randle + Nia Wilson 🕊️
Happy (?) Sunday. I’ve entered the scramble phase of my early-start 2024 life improvement plan. Being offline and staying offline was only productive for about the first two weeks of that late Sept/early Oct window. It didn’t remove any distractions and it didn’t magically free up extra time, but it did allow me to clear out enough mental space to *think* I’d freed some up. Part of this journey is realizing that I didn’t really have “extra” time at all. I was actually backlogged on at least six months of life admin and eventually realized that I probably should’ve taken care of that before even attempting ‘future’ planning. For example, I didn’t renew my lease in July and have been living on a month-to-month lease ever since. Five months. Have I looked at one single apartment? No. Have I talked to one single realtor or even put two braincells towards finance prep or buying a house? No. l literally just self-raised my rent $300/month. Like, what is she thinking? Reading this back feels very doom and gloom, but I promise you all I am laughing and pointing at myself in the mirror like a crazy person. Don’t worry — it all changes tomorrow. New week, new me, no games, no playing.
Appreciate y’all.
