2025-07-02 Welcome to July
After my last post a friend of mine messaged me and said “good luck doing nothing.” Or something like that and it’s true… I set an intention for June to do less.

If I had a therapist she might say I shouldn’t pose an existential question with five minutes left in our session. Yeah. Probably not.
