I had not planned a post like this today. I only heard of the #handwritten community very recently from my IRL Hive Friends and
.
I gotta confess I'm driving myself a bit too hard, waiting for a breakthrough in some of my Hive workflows. So, I'm at a bit of a mental squeeze point, ya know, the kind that makes you take forever doing a task, or make dumb mistakes? That's me these days.
I'll do a proper post later about my diary ordered from a luxury goods design house to celebrate my daily work in two places — and #hive, but that comes with a story that I promise to deliver. With this level of exhaustion, I need to just go to bed, but I've hand written my post and will follow it up with a typed version.

The tired that’s been accumulating is effecting my ability to
manage long multi-step tasks. I just screwed my CWH post
by putting it in the music community on #ttt, which
was the plan until it became too cumbersome to write
and illustrate a post for three hosted events + a collab-
oration with ladies of Hive + three tune Tuesday. I thought
it’d be okay to not build such a heavy ship. I had already
built #ttt features in the post before the exhaustion
hit. I don’t know that there’s anything to do about it.
I toldmy error and what I update to
make sure at least it complied with the music community.
You’d think I broke something valuable, the way I
reacted to my unintentional post destination—
I cried! Then, the sunscreen/cream I was wearing
backwashed into my eyes. Stinging! OMG!
Good about this day—
Plumber Ryan came to see if the treatment I applied
to the kitchen drain worked. Apparently it did!
Also, Ryan retrieved my radio microphone gold/silver
pendant from the P-trap at the bathroom basin.
I unwrapped the hangers I purchased last night at
IKEA and began hanging the clothing that’s been stacked
in the living room from the moth mitigation move-out.
With the dining chairs relieved of holding garments I
was able to return them to the new location of the dining table.

I’m trying to create more room for work, online hosting
of CWH (co-working for Hive), and music practice so my
designer brain has awakened to help with the job.
The only problem is that my designer self consumes
a lot of energy.
Writing this out is helping me make the connection
between pulling in designer “me” when writer,
founder, and now collaborating curator “me” has
already overextended.
I can add a photo to the post of my fun lunch I
sneaked in at midday — the chicken quesadilla,
West Yorkshire style with my power up screenshot.
This will be the first time I’ve handwritten and
added a post to the handwritten community. I hope
it’s straight forward to do so. I don’t think I’ll
enjoy another community posting mishap tonight. 🙂

As described in my diary, here is the fun lunch, the Chicken Quesadilla made lovingly by Milli, head of kitchen at my local, The Palace. 👑
As indicated, I'm off to bed. Appointments tomorrow, hosting CWH, and the kick-ass Hive gaming chair get delivered!
I sign off with an act of faith, a mere 10 HIVE Power Up for 10 February. 💪🏽
Much love! 🥰
