Giving journaling another try (feddit.org)

Hello!

I used to journal a bit here and there. I think the longest I managed to do it consistently was January '22 until mid '23.

I want to give it another try and see how it goes this time. As a little motivation boost I got myself a fountain pen. First time I got one since back in school; like 20 years ago when I switched to ballpoint. And used to have ones from LAMY back then and after 2 days of resarch I got the LAMY AL-star. I went to the store to test and it took me 30 minutes to decide on the colour. So I totally understand why people own many pens very fast :D

Somedays are harder than others. The other day I was grateful to have gotten pushed out of the ditch, grateful I got pushed out of a client's driveway and grateful I technically did not hit the deer. It was a difficult day to be grateful for as it was so stressful. I also enjoy a good scented ink or a nice nontraditional ink color.
