Putting up the last of the garden produce. Resting wherever I can. Being unapologetically myself. And moving my body so it can keep up with my values.

I'm refusing to let this hellscape ruin my cozy holiday home. Gonna spend time with people I love, decorate my house, get a tree. Maybe lecture a few randos on the colonialist underpinnings of our culture.

Around work projects, I'm doing some planning for the bigger scope next year: balance, priorities, projects to leave behind. And I'm gonna make some art this week.

I took today for self-care, did a bunch of things I've been putting off. Rest of the week is going to be about rest and Beets planning.

I don't like to be the boss of you, but I sincerely hope voting is part of your answer.

Regardless of how things turn out tomorrow, I'm setting out this week to cultivate some hope. I need a recharge in the worst way.

Voting! and researching to get it right.

Resting between bouts of musical resistance. Reading. Finishing up the canning and food storage from the last of the garden.

I'm doing a lot of prep to safely and peacefully protest over the next few weeks. Gonna play some tunes to keep people fired up. Some behind the scenes organizing work for two of my groups, and doing my damnedest to get some rest around all of that and my, like, work I have to do to eat.

Still working on some catchup as far as paid work, but also it's time for our monthly meeting and I have a lot of extra time booked for rehearsing with the protest band for a big set of upcoming gigs.

I have to make some money, because sadly we still live in capitalism. So this week I have to prioritize making sure we can pay our mortgage for the rest of the year, so I have the capacity to keep fighting.

Resting, as much as I can. Preparing for a visit from an old friend and strengthening community networks. Reading.

Organizng work for the Beets. Practicing for woot doot resistance. I'm setting a tangible goal to finish at least one of the three books in reading for antiracist and antifascist learning.

Last week took so much out of me I think I have to make time to rest before I can plan my next steps. At the very least, I'm going to make a dent in the ever-growing reading pile.
