25-31 Oct I want to remind myself: Routine from outside of myself helps me. When I take breaks from it, it’s tough at first. But then I do figure out stuff. I just need to give myself spaciousness and then creativity bubbles up in and out of me. Taking breaks for long enough to start […]

What I’m dreaming, scheming and actualising each week…
an amazing aide memoir — my memory sucks so having a searchable archive of my comings, goings and ideas is regularly useful

Weeknotes: Reflections on learning in September
I accidentally skipped a couple of weeks, and then I felt really behind and stopped weeknotes completely. Here are some notes for/from 13-19 Sep, 20-26 Sep & 27 Sep – 3 Oct. It’s the season of learning! Well, it’s always a good time to learn for me, but there are definitely back to school vibes […]
Weeknotes: Break down to break through, rollercoaster week
The memory of it is already hazy, tbh, but I think it’s been a rollercoaster of a week. Highlights include writing, sketching, lots of reading, lots of comedy. And, hopefully, a place of my own. 6 – 12 Sep Writing &co I had three great writing sessions, but otherwise I was a bit all over […]
Weeknotes: Flitting between trees, searching for home
Wow, not been this ‘late’ with my weeknotes in months! I’m moving. And it’s tiring. I’ll make this quick. Started going to viewings. Looked at four places in three days and it was so exhausting that I spent pretty much the whole weekend watching TV and reading. Still fatigued. But a tiny walk refreshed me […]
Weeknotes: Delighting in dance, photography, maps and song explorations
Mapping connections amongst my explorations. Exploring different arts & media to create & collate inspiration from so many sources. Music takes greater prominence with songwriting & a new music section. Writing & creating art explorations I’ve been exploring lots of different media this week: ✨ Emotion Through Motion – wellness with drawing, music, dancing, yin […]
Weeknotes: Appreciation, affirmation and support
Appreciation, Affirmation & Support I’m thinking about how there are so many individuals and organisations that support me. Here are some of them. Organisations: Coaching, teaching, etc. Conscious Growth Club – a year-long online coaching, community, and social support program by Steve Pavlina The School of Life – a global organisation devoted to teaching folks […]
Weeknotes: Playing with poetry, experimenting and enjoying different forms
Practising joy & relaxation, liberation, restoration I didn’t do much writing on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday morning, and I was miserable. There were a few causes for the misery, but one of them was not writing. Wednesday afternoon I wrote some of the things I wanted to write, did a deep rest meditation and went […]

Weeknotes: Accomplishments and remembering how to relax
It’s okay to overwork for a limited time, I think. Dangerous, as a recovering workaholic, but okay when it’s crunch time for good reason. The problem is after two weeks of solidly working, I’d forgotten how to relax… It took me half of Saturday to remember. (And then I spent most of Sunday watching films, […]
Weeknotes: Plant nerds unite, whilst writers write
42 hours and 45 minutes of writing so far in July. Way to go LiLi! Plant nerdery achieved to new heights this week. And I reconnected with my love of sketching plants whilst hanging out with fellow enthusiasts, exploring botanical colonialism and queer ecology. What a week, basically. And now Black Botanists’ Week 2021 is […]
