Hey what’s up reader? If you’re reading this, I hope you’re doing well and enjoying your journey through life. I am doing ok, and after receiving a complete remission from Leukemia diagnosis, I am feeling healthy and blessed. I am a bit tired, but that’s just from the sleep deprivation that tends to plague a lot of us stuck in wage slavery. You spend 10+ hours going to, at, and leaving work, then when you get home you want to relax and do what YOU want to do, but you only have a few hours at night to do so. I have been going to sleep lately around 10:45pm or 11pm. I am usually settled in at home by 6pm after work, so that gives me a bit under 5 hours to take care of things around the house, walk the dog, and so on.
I have recently discovered burning Palo Santo wood. It smells good and its said that it gets rid of negative energy in the area, which I believe. I’m writing this at 6:30am before work, and I’m burning some right now. I’ll see how it starts off my day and if I feel better as I go through the day. We all get bogged down with negativity from the things we see out in the world, dealing with certain aspects of work, and even sometimes the people in our home. You have to find some way to cope with it and find some positive energy out of it. Meditation can help, as can smudging items like Palo Santo and sage.
I’m still DJing and scratching/juggling. Got to keep at it even though its sometimes hard to find the time. I’m also still making beats on my MPC Live 2. I need to finish some out and put them up on my Distrokid, or at the very least on my Bandcamp page. Hopefully this weekend I can work on that. I’m trying to collect more vinyl records as I go along, and I have recently realized that buying from Amazon.com is cheaper than buying at a record store. I know that sucks, but when a record shoppe is charging $38 for a record that costs $21 on Amazon, it’s hard to compete. Vinyl records are making a comeback, and a large conglomerate like Amazon is all aboard the train. That’s good for the consumer, but may spell doom for these mom and pop record shops.
That’s about it for the update. I’m still slaving away at an IT job and doing what I need to do to pay bills. I just finished paying off a major debt, so hopefully my money situation improves as I go along. I’ll post here again when I remember to, but I enjoy having this page to go back and look what I was thinking about at a certain time in the past. Peace, love, and light to you and stay blessed. L8r…
