Another long gap between posts. How easy it is to fall out of habit as the year progresses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here we are nearing December and I feel as though so many of the habits I worked so hard to maintain are falling to the side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had a couple weeks of illness which derailed my running. For the past two years my goal had been to run 1000 kms in a year, and I did so in 2021 and 2022, but it doesn’t look like I’m going to make it in 2023. I’ll get close, but not quite there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have not been posting on here regularly, although it has been on my mind. I have taken photos and had thoughts. I have been creating, but I haven’t been sharing it on Plate of Grapes. Perhaps I will find a way to share more on this in the coming weeks. I know I want to, but for some reason I haven’t been doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have been writing quite frequently. My goal is to write 50,000 words this month. It’s an idea sprung from the NaNoWriMo that takes place every November where young writers are encouraged to write 50,000 words during the month of November – the approximate number of words in a novel. I am not a young writer, but I felt up to the challenge this month and it has been quite enjoyable keeping on top of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some photos from a brief visit to LA a couple of months ago that I’ve been meaning to post:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
