Dear Last Week Vero,

I don’t really feel like my work is that important now, while people are out there fighting fires and feeding firefighters, but my work is all I know about, so that’s what I do during an emergency.

• Improv at ASNL✅
• Writing meeting✅
• Half replaced a floor✅
• Folder⏭️🥲
• Book only at 6/18 — not as good a progress as I was hoping, but progress ⏭️
• Merch – Sorted, decided on favs ✅ ⏭️ prep for making it
• Very fun games night!
• Fun times Friday at Susan & MK’s Variety Show. I played some new music, my version of angry protest song, which is more like a depressed complaint song
• Also moderated a movie q&a Friday and met a distant cousin!

So not all bad

Dear Next Week Vero,

Try and get something Last Week Vero wanted me to do, please. Anything that needs to get done that’s not done yet. Your window is closing. September draws near.

PS I left you a gift in Procreate. Talk to Stacy.

Love ya, good luck!

Dear Last Week Vero,

So, instructions not clear — what did 2 weeks ago Vero want me to do? Book, Merch, The Box again, right?

Merch: Workin’ on it.

• Prep payment system
• Arrange fav comics
• Print them
• Contact shirt place

The Box & The Folder

• I’m trying to get help here but I’m hitting road blocks. Asking for help is already so hard, what do you do when you ask and you don’t get the help you need? I have been trying to do it myself. I have tried asking for personal help. I have tried asking for professional help. Neither has worked. What do I do now? I feel stupid.

Book

• Sigh

I’m right off track now, working on apartments — laying floors, painting walls, doing repairs, cleaning. That’s most of my time and energy this week.

I never plan things out correctly, I’m always doubling or tripling or multiplying up on projects. My kingdom for singular focus.

I’m feeling really demotivated lately. Just got some more demotivating news. I’m trying to stay on tasks but you can’t pour from an empty cup.

I had a good last class for the improv sessions. Very fun! I got to hang out with my bud Matt and his fam jam the weekend at a show in Bonavista. Stacy and I listened to an audiobook, I rec’d it and she likes it so that’s good.

Dear Last Two Weeks Veronica,

(Veronicas?)

It’s midweek now, I should have posted this Sunday, or Monday, or Tuesday, but I’m flat out. Def not gonna finish everything I need to finish in time.

I got some merch ready, need to prep some comics. Not too hard. Good chats with friends. Feeling better.

Dear Rest of Week Vero:

It’s ok to take a break, but I know you can’t really yet. Plan for one mid September please, the past Veros have been so stressed. I’m teetering.

You know what you gotta do, but as a reminder:

HBZ Newsletter (link here)

Vidcast edit

Vidcast Recording

Hard Phone Call

Comics Fest

Apartments (painting, cleaning, fixing)

The Box (it’s not that bad — I had fun sorting it, promise. Next: Subjects, then years)

The Book – on HBZ as a process piece

Good luck! I love you!
