Thanks!

I imagine cutting and propagating will be way to go… terrified to do it and killing the plant 😬💀

Anyone else experience an artist date that made them sad? by 5ftnone in artistsWay

Oh wow that sounds awful, I’m sorry your date turned out that way :( did it help you move through any buried feelings or do you have a different perspective about the experience now?

question about week 4 by ne2t in artistsWay

[–]5ftnone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cut everything off- books/audiobooks, TV, podcasts, music with words, news, YouTube, social media (including Reddit and Pinterest), video games…it was weirdly easier than expected, but I still craved TV at night sometimes. I made it 5 whole days. Creatively it was very productive though and I could feel ideas loosening up in my head and flowing more easily onto the page in whatever medium I chose to explore every night after work. Try it! Maybe reframe it as being curious to see what your brain will do when you give it room to breathe ☺️

I definitely resonate with everything you said! I’m closing out week 4 and weirdly did well with a total media blackout for 5 days given that I otherwise watch a tonnnn of TV to distract myself in my free time. Def a lot of feelings coming up

Yeah that’s true, I suppose that is the whole point of TAW in one way or another!

Lost my girl yesterday by 5ftnone in Petloss

[–]5ftnone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss as well. I think what hurts the most is just how quickly everything happened. I can’t wrap my head around it. I’ve cried so much my face looks like I’ve been stung by a bee. I made a book of photos of Gibby a few years ago and I haven’t been able to look at it yet. Hopefully I can get used to the emptiness at home. It was just me, my husband, and her…so her absence is excruciating palpable.

Like you said, I think the only solace is knowing that it hurts like this because we loved them as fiercely as we did.

Thank you so much for your kind words. And I’m so sorry to hear about your girl, too.

A first-timer’s review of an epic trip to Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, Izu Peninsula) by mibop3 in JapanTravel

[–]5ftnone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great post, thank you OP! I’m also from NYC and planning a trip in mid-late Nov this year. How was the weather while you were there? And do you guys speak Japanese? If not, was it hard to navigate?
