Happy Midnight! Today Is A New Day, And The Start Of A New Era. Today I Draw For You The Sacred Triforce.

Daily Affirmation: My name is Blue, and I am able to learn new skills.

I did some yard work today to make a little money. Tomorrow, I need to get up bright and early and panhandle. I did not choose to be disabled. I deserve to live well. Daily Affirmation: My name is Blue, and it is not selfish of me to ask for help.

I need to work from home because I get panic attacks. Making music is my best chance at earning a living online. I have depression. I have to start writing the sheet music now, while I'm not feeling well. The mental effort will slowly improve my mood as I work. Waiting for the depression to go away never works. The depression will always be there. The only way to improve the depression is to summon the willpower to be productive. I know that the music will be good enough to earn donations. I just have to have faith and trust the process.

So, as an agender nonbinary person, I usually try to avoid gendered language. I chose two staves, "Men" and "Bass", initially, to describe a trio to be performed by myself. These are the options the program provides. "Bass" is already gender-neutral. But I thought it would be more gender-neutral to describe the two higher voices as "Low Voices" instead of "Men." So that's what I did.

Ugh, the lyrics that I wrote are so bad. I'm done trying to write lyrics. Vocals don't have to have words. I have to push through this mental fog and try to actually make good music. Waking up from deep depression is so hard, but it is possible. Mental effort will help to clear the fog away.

This is a meme, apparently.

I have trouble making friends Maybe I will write a poem View the problem through a lens Welcome them into my home Daily Affirmation: My name is Blue, and I have the potential to do good things.

I started a secondary blog for practice images: tumblr.com/bluesketchblue It's probably not worth looking at. But having a place to post my practice work will help to motivate me to do it.

Okay, here's a rainbow compass. I've made a lot of progress on my self-esteem. I think maybe now I will start working on my sense of gratitude. Today, I am thankful for my delicious cup of coffee.

∅ Hello, I'm Blue! ∅ I put the letters in different quadrants this time. I'm so clever!
