Nerd Church - Blogging Schedule Update (...It's Been A Stressful Week)

 

I don't usually write Nerd Church posts like this, but since Nerd Church isn't really tightly defined (...or defined at all, OK, I know,) I figured why not?

You may or may not have noticed that there was no Comics Wrap-Up (CWU) post, or Friday Fics Fix (F3) post this week.

- Which wasn't a planned break.

My life turned into another whirling ball of chaos this week, with my mother's health being very Not Good.

(Thankfully she's doing so much better now.)

So I simply didn't have time to write CWU or F3 this week. 

The timings of when I needed to write the post, vs when I needed to do things for my parents, vs when I had to do actual paying work, clashed massively.

So at 8pm on Wednesday night, I realised that while I could force myself to throw together a CWU and a F3 at short notice... it wasn't healthy.

I was absolutely exhausted, and emotionally stressed AF - so for once I followed my own (excellent) advice, and put myself and my health first.

I'm not going to pretend it was easy - I know the amount of people who would even have noticed the lack of posts would have been negligable, but I hold myself to an often dangerously high standard, so my brain was determined that I was failing big-time.

But it was 100% the right call. I was not 'up to' writing those blogposts. At all.

So - moving forwards!

I can't guarantee that this won't happen again. Because, as mentioned, my life is chaos right now, so regularly-scheduled things are a little precarious.

BUT - I will always let you know any change of schedule. 

Because despite the fact that few people probably notice or care, I care - so I'll be updating if and when this happens again.

For now:

Comics Wrap-Up will be back on 7th November 2024, since next Thursday (Halloween,) is my blog-anniversary, so there will be a post about that instead. (Hopefully.)

Friday Fics Fix will be back on 1st November 2024.

Literally all of my plans are subject to last-minute change - and that's OK. 

I have to do the healthy thing (and yes, I am trying to convince myself here - wish me luck!)

So - do you get uncomfortable and stressed when you have to rearrange things?
