December 2022 – Page 4 – dinipandareads

I’m going rogue for this week’s Let’s Talk Bookish and jumping back to a prompt that I missed from July? Yep, that far back!

***

Let’s Talk Bookish is a weekly meme created by Rukky @Eternity Books and hosted by Aria @Book Nook Bits, and it’s where we get to discuss certain topics, share our opinions, and spread the love by visiting each other’s posts! If you want to join in the bookish discussion fun, check out the July 2022 prompts and for November 2022 to check out today’s prompt!

Now without further ado… The topic asks us about:

Balancing blogging and life

(SUGGESTED BY ARIA @ BOOK NOOK BITS)
Prompts: How do you manage balancing blogging and life? In what ways do school and work get in the way of blogging? Are there any ways that blogging can help with everyday life? Are there certain times of year when blogging becomes harder or more overwhelming?

Wow, is it really already December 1st?! I don’t know how November is already over but I do know that…

I spent almost two weeks of the month being totally bowled over by COVID (got it for the first time). It was not fun losing my taste & smell, plus I hated that my body ached so much that I couldn’t even get proper rest!
I spent one week slowly coming out of the brain fog and dealing with residual cough/cold symptoms. And…
I spent the last week getting used to travelling to the office again and getting back into work mode.

And that was basically my whole month? I have no idea what happened before getting sick because it was a blur of work stress. As much as it sucked to get knocked out by the virus, I’m glad that that’s now behind me and I’m back to feeling ‘normal’ again.
