👾 Dear @teamhumble coziness as a state of mind.

Another morning/evening where I have the pleasure of saying good morning to my favorite person.

Thest tunes are a bit up beat for my end of the day brain but i hope they're doing it for you, a little caffeine free activation stimulus on a Monday morning, and by all means still enjoy the coffee, all this means is now you can have an extra cup.

And here I am at the end of the weekend. Considering I woke up fully convinced it was Monday morning, I guess it was a bonus? Aside from making some soup and making/packing tonight's order I really did spend all day in bed.

I think this time last year, or even a few months ago that's something I would have felt immensely bad about, guilty i wasnt working or wasnt able to work, those feelings of shame guilt and feeling "behind" some impossible self imposed benchmark.

And while I still did feel a little frustrated I wasn't firing on all cylinders I know that I've done the work to provide for a day like today. It's like when you get all those wines fermenting in the cellar and the f-off too the desert for the day and dont end up selling anything a the end of the day. It all equals out in the end right? At least I have to believe that on the effort scale.

I wrote you less this week than I would have liked but to be honest its mostly because my days have been pretty linear and I find myself without much to say. The groundhog day feeling is real, but at least some of the digital metrics are moving so I have that as a benchmark for the passing of time. I truly cant believe we are at the last full week of November, that's disturbing and shocking all at once.

I seem to never be able to get used to how fast time is flying by, but the plus is if I've got to be away from you at least that's the pacing.

I miss you terribly, I miss the way we are together, I miss feeling at home, and able to relax. I've had to force myself to focus on this business or I think I would have gone to a really dark and sad place these past few months. Now that we're hading into winter and these short days I'm going to try to make an effort to switch to mid morning walks, get that sunshine when I can, do my best to keep the body and mind healthy... the winter months can be harsh on both scores.

But that being said, you and I are extreme purveyors of the art of cosy, which is, when you think about it, the ability to say "no" in the face of harsh elements, the strength to carve out an opposing kind of space to the outside world and the creativity to sustain it.

And I know you and I have determination, creativity and defiance in boatloads. ;)

So, take a large sip of water, and get into that stoic book, set youreself out an awesome day, maybe a walk or a stretch before you get into the digitals and I'll see youon the other side.

I love you with all my heart hunny,

<3 Dayle

hey baby, morning! :) well it's 11 here now but there ya go.

i hat-tip all your sentiments above and say, hey, regardless we made it this far, we are incredibly lucky to have the insight of knowledge, wisdom and the ability to cross reference information. A skill in itself, always adapting always adopting the new, it's how you have to roll in this world, totally flexing at all levels.

Yeah yesterday was the same for me and yes, of course it all adds up, i'm actually feeling pretty damn good this morning, maybe because it's cyberweek, i think i work better when it's last minute instead of being totally prepared for something -- either way, it's mostly out of our hands anyway, but i do have moves to make in the next nine days before our second lockdown comes to an end.

the dumb fuckers in gov are doing exactly like i thought they would, with the tory party "saving christmas" by coming up with a new name for a 5 day bubble like they have the power to allow these things to happen or not, it's all a bit of a joke right now tbh, also our oxford vaccine is coming out and it's 70% effective compared to the 90/95 ones you guys have made, so that's a thing. lol.

so so ready to be just out out, ya know, nothing i'd drop funds on right now is a big people mover situation and just keep fucking driving forty miles each day somewhere ya know? with you at my side and our doggo, that would be pretty freaking great -- always be mentally manifesting my love! :)

right, time for me to get into some video and ads, i've got a full day, tunes are on, coffee #2 water is bubbling away and i really wanna get a solid day 1 of 9 in the bag, even if i'm exhausted by the end of this week i'm going in and that's that -- if i'm a little slow in comms it's because i'm in the middle of a video edit or i have the machine offline to avoid white noise internet :)

just had a thought, what if v1.5 comes out for christmas, like maybe christmas day or just before or something, that would be wild, i just have a feeling it's gonna come out before the end of this year, please if he discounts it, puts it on sale for christmas he might have enough momentum to make bank going into next year.

As for missing you, of course, that's a given, obvious in fact, nothing i'd rather do than sit opposite or next to you in some place having breakfast, dinner or tea while we shoot the shit about things and come up with a project we wanna get done together, TO FEEEL WHAT IT TASSSTES LIKE...

Mwah, thanks for writing me love,
