September reward post!

Hello my Sweethearts!
After thinking hard about how to be with rewards here I am.
I tried to mix our previous projects with properly polished images from Velma photoshoot in hopes it'll be a good substitute for this time. We had around 40% of the project finished, and I’m asking to consider it as an “Early version”. Because one of our next steps is to work on it properly.

In this time full of negativity I’m trying to find crumbs/specks of anything positive and try to enjoy it. For example, yesterday I finally was able to sleep to my heart's content. After a long week without proper rest, it was truly-truly amazing to get up, walk my dog, eat and get back to sleep once again. Just do something “simple” and “daily”.
By the way, we had our first snow five days ago! Snow with a light freeze makes going for a walk very enjoyable. Who doesn’t like first snow, right? )
But after several months of freezing and when it’s several meters, can’t say your love will last long. After many years the only thing you’re wishing for is warm or hot weather. I thought to myself that way, but this summer showed me that I’m more used to chill places. 42-45 C is too hot and too dry.

So, my other small joy is snow nowadays. )
Another joy I’m trying to add in my daily life and to not go insane is gaming. It was always my big hobby, but I took a big pause from it. The game that’s cheering me up these days is “Yakuza. Like a dragon”. If you ask me to describe the experience from the game, it’ll be “shonen game-manga for adults”. It gives you a unique feel of hope and comradery, which you can get from titles written specially for younger audiences (a good example may be Naruto in its glory days).
If you’re happened to be in middle age crisis, I think this game might help you to go through this tough period easier. Because this is the story of a good person getting in bad company, losing many and starting his life journey anew in his 40's. Very emotional story.
Highly recommend it, but I should warn you that the game might appear “too japanese”. A bit bizarre and with a lot of grinding. In a good way. )
The only time when I can play a bit is on weekends, because all necessary government institutions don't work. Bureaucracy machine here works with problems especially these days, but weekends appear too long for me right now.

I want to note once again, that finishing Velma photoshoot works will be one of our main focus. BUT. I’ll talk about it in my next post, where we’ll decide it together.

Today I woke up with the news that technically might lead to nuclear danger…
I wish us all safety and peace.

Please be safe, and may your loved ones be healthy!
