You gotta do, what you gotta do in 2025 | Diary Ramble 2025

 

You gotta do, what you gotta do in 2025

Hello struggler, if you are reading this mini-life story, come-career-update, it's not all doom and gloom. To survive and get the bills paid, you've got to do what you've got to do. I wrote about the full story for this on Medium for those who are interested and want a bit of humanity in their day.  

While work has been slow, and I will freely admit it to a stranger who is reading this, I have not been idle with despair. I'm spending much of my time learning new things, and 'upskilling' as much as possible. This takes time however... a lot of time! And let's not leave out drawing with pens. 

Drawing


I created a post with my Orkney sketches on my blog to those who are interested. It was a cool trip.

Here is my lens... and a photo of my out and abouts in Ampthill, Bedfordshire.

Muddling Through...

As this post is bit of general share of things, you are happen on this post by blind luck. You are not the only one struggling out there - lets all sit in the struggle boat together and work our way through it. 

But returning to reality, I have had to consider other ways of earning extra income. I became a sporadic odd-jobber / labourer and general help for a couple of trades in the local area. It's straightforward hard work, and I quite like it... But it is serious graft! 

Creating Model Conversions


IF you are struggling with work options, don't be afraid to widen your net.Get some laughs in... take random picture or embrace artistic nerdery!

Ah let me share with you. Here is an example of what I have been making with green stuff and bits and pieces. 

You can read more on that bit of fun on that website I plonked together in 2019.
