Five Things on a Wednesday

seren_ccdI'm feeling much better this week.
1. Seriously, much better. Not altogether sure why? Probably because I did all the hard stuff last week and this week I'm feeling the relief of letting a few things go (both physical stuff and mental stuff). I've also changed my diet a little. Just added more protein but also made sure to eat stuff I wanted to.
2. I'm still exercising and I went to a gym session last night and it was really hard, but good. Especially good in that I've been working on getting better and I am. My stamina and my energy levels are so much better than a month ago. Yay!
3. Work is...okay. I'm not as full of rage as I was, but I'm much more wary of stuff.
4. I think I might do a walking holiday in Ireland to see the Giant's Causeway. It looks amazing and I've found a really good deal for not very much. I've been in the UK for 12 years and I've never made it to Ireland. I need to get to Ireland. I've lived in Wales, England and Scotland, I need to complete the circle. I also need a mini-break, so I'm looking at May... Possibly. Maybe with a friend, maybe on my own. But I really want to do it.
5. I need to work on my Abigail/Billy story, however I had an idea the other day for an original thing that I might try exploring...
6. Ooh, look! A 6! I kind of loved Netflix's the Umbrella Academy. I'm not quite sure why? The soundtrack is AMAZING and I just really liked the characters a lot. It was fun and while there are some seriously grim moments, it didn't feel utterly weighted down by them? I have to admit, I've taken to fast forwarding through scenes that look like they'll be grim. I don't tend to miss anything and I can get the gist of the scene, I don't need to see it.
I hope everyone is doing okay! Happy Wednesday! ♥

And oh??? You know I'm always game to swap chapters/be a cheerleader for your original fics! And there's always the "reward myself for writing a fic chapter/1000 words with writing the original fic chapter/1000 words" method - self bribery for the win!

And basically what hiddencait said about fic. I loved the original stuff you shared before.
