Emerging From a Couple of Weeks of "Fuzzy-headedness!"

in hive-185836 •  3 years ago 

I don't know whether or not this is something that is specific to creative types of people, but I periodically go through these periods where I just feel completely fuzzy-headed and like my brain is moving through a fog.

Whereas we often talk about the "natural cycles" of life, whether that be seasons or our personal biorhythms or something else, the slightly disturbing thing about my off-times is that I can never tell in advance when or why they are going to happen... nor for how long I will feel largely "out of commission."

This last one has been particularly long and "deep," and for no particular reason it seems to have overlapped substantially with the start of the ongoing storm in the cryptosphere.

As I said, there's no actual "causal correlation" there.

Slight Improvements...

Yesterday was really the first day in some two weeks that I didn't feel like a turtle swimming through honey, and I actually managed to undertake something mildly productive... like cleaning my office, and organizing the shipping table I use to pack items I have sold on eBay to ship to customers.

To some degree, I suppose our particularly lousy spring weather is also playing a part. This is the time of the year when we are normally getting super active planting our kitchen garden and being excited about all the things we are doing outside... but so far, this May has offered up rain on 15 of the first 16 days, and temperatures a good 5-6 degrees below normal.

Our poor tomato plants seem more inclined to rot than to grow and bear fruit!

LAST year's harvest was really good!

Anyway, I'm just hoping my state of mind will start getting a bit "clearer" as we move on forward... because I really don't enjoy feeling like this.

And no, I'm not actually ill, or anything like that...

Not at ALL Related...

I noticed the "haircut rule" has come into effect here in the world of Steemit... meaning that liquid rewards are no longer being paid in SBD, but in STEEM. It happens, every now and then, usually following extremely steep price declines like we recently had. I don't remember the technical specifics that trigger it...

Anyway, I'm going to attempt to become a bit more active again... as the fog in my brain continues to lift (hopefully!).

Thanks for reading, and have a great rest of your week!

Hola @chico de dinamarca; Pues creo que no es un momento reservado para artistas solamente, son etapas de cada persona, quizás cerraste un ciclo y debes empezar otro, quizás toque cambiar y darle más sentido a alguna parte d tu vida y así.
