Hello, it's Saturday, so it's time to start filming again for Mouse Moments.
I'm trying a different thing with sound this week. I'm using my phone as an external recorder,
So we'll see if that works any better.
I am going to London, and I'm going to the theatre, and I'm gonna see Young Frankenstein the musical.
I'm actually going in the theatre twice this month, I'm going to see Hamilton at the end of the month,
So after a long time I'm not going to the theatre much at all I'm going twice in a month.
So it's now Tuesday, I took a couple of days off.
I decided to take it easy for a few days because I wasn't feeling too well.
Today I'm still taking it a little bit slowly but I've done a couple of things today.
I'm making my review of Black Mirror season 4
Because one of the things I've done over my couple of days off is finish Black Mirror.
Making udon noodle soup!
So it's Thursday afternoon, and I am working on this dragon egg this afternoon,
Which I haven't done for quite a long time.
I just have to put scales on the top and then I can paint it.
My mental health took a bit of a turn this week,
It hasn't been the best week for me, mentally, unfortunately,
So I decided a few days ago that my priority for this week was just self-care.
So I decided to do some spontaneous crafting this afternoon
Because my sick brain enjoys the repetitive nature of it ,
And how slow it is, and how not difficult it is,
But also the part of my brain which is just really frustrated and wants to do all the things I normally do
Is also kind of happy with this task because I get something at the end of it
I get a finished dragon egg.
And my plan for after I finish this dragon egg, is to make another dragon egg which I will film for a Mouse Makes.
As I say, quite a weird week, sort of itty-bitty,
Instead of my normal weeks which are more sort of structured,
And I kind of have plans for each day, and know what I'm going to do.
This week's been more about "What do I feel like doing today?"
Which isn't great long term, but I think just for the next few days I'm gonna stick with it and my plan,
And try and get my head back into a better space.
And I've done it before, but it just means a few days of sort of playing things by ear,
And just sort of changing my priorities a bit short term, in order to be able to keep up with them long term.
So that's been my week, a little bit odd, a little bit fragmented, but we'll see how it goes.
So now it's Friday, hello!
Yesterday was a good day, I felt much better by the end of it
I think it was the way to go yesterday.
So I think I'm gonna continue that today, just see how I feel and not necessarily follow my own plans.
How has your week been? As I say, mine's been a little bit odd
But overall I think it's not been a bad week, it's been a relatively good week.
There's a new adaptation, a TV adaptation, of Les Miserables,
And the casting has just been announced, and I really want to talk about this casting,
So if I'm feeling like it tomorrow I might make a Geekery.
But if I'm not feeling like it I might make a blog post instead, we'll see.
But I should have a review up on Tuesday,
I'm going to the cinema on Monday and I'm looking forward to that.
So yeah, one of those two things will be the next video on my channel.
I was thinking about this, this morning, how the regular content on my channel changed periodically,
For instance, right now it seems like the regular content on my channel is these videos and reviews,
I am making a lot of reviews at the moment, I have noticed.
But yet when I think about the end of 2017, I think about it being quite a lot of craft videos,
I did those Rey cosplay videos, and then I did a bit later those Christmas craft videos.
So I feel like that's quite an interesting thing I haven't really thought much about on my channel before,
How the things I make regularly, change regularly.
I'm not sure whether I should try and be more consistent?
But then it also might be part of why I still enjoy making all these videos after so long,
Because I can have a break from them every now and then and make something else,
Or just feel like making a particular thing for a while and make that,
Or I can just cater my content to what I'm doing in my life at the moment, and what is happening,
And what at the moment seems to be happening is that I'm watching quite a lot of films!
So that's just a thought for the end of Mouse Moments.
Having said all this, I do have some craft videos in the works,
And also I promised a video about the organisational tools that I use
And that will be coming in the near future as well,
I plan on starting to work on it next week or the week after.
And if you have any questions about organisation, and how I organise my life, let me know.
Anyway, sorry about this little admin bit at the end,
It's quite common, isn't it, in these Mouse Moments/Phone Fridays.
Since we're here, I haven't had a live stream for a while and I want to,
But I think maybe not next week, I think maybe the week after next,
So there'll be a little while to wait before the next livestream, but there will be one soon.
I will let you know for sure in next week's Mouse Moments.
I'm going to stop now, and start editing this video
And maybe do a little bit of work this afternoon.
I hope you have a fantastic weekend, and a great week next week, and I will see you soon!
