Ready to give this another go..

It's quite reflective really, about how some things have been going the last couple of years.

I went from a burn out straight into the pandemic, then a couple of months into that I actually caught the damn thing and have been dealing with the post-covid syndrome ever since.

It has gotten better though, slowly, oh so very slowly I started to be less tired all the time and with help from speech therapy I got my breathing back to (semi) normal. Unless there's a high humidity (I live in the Netherlands..that's a lot..) allergy season, or something funny in the air (smoke from fire or fireworks etc), then breathing is still harder.

And then I caught it again last November, holy pancakes was I sick....crying on the bathroom floor sick.....

But life, and work, goes on, and even though I am still tired at weird moments at times, and my breath doesn't always come easy, I got away fairly well I think.

Now I am ready to give this all a second chance, the blogging, the studio in general I guess. It has all been almost at a halt, with some lucky hits, for a while.

So today I started tidying up the room I use as a studio, I'm not finished, but I made a good start. 

I freshened up the website and mailing list, reconfigured and updated some other administration stuff, and now I'm ready to go to bed.

Here's a look at one of my cute companions and what he's up to while I'm writing this...
