Welcome to 2023! We're ten days in and so far it has been a wild ride for me. I've done many experiences in Vegas and have made so many memories.

The downside is that I Have been sick since the start of the New Year. It started with sneezing constantly to the point of not being able to breathe and then it slowly evolved to coughing. From there it developed into a constant cough that I couldn't shake no matter what I did and it impeded my sleep for a while. I was tired but the constant coughing prevented me from getting any rest at all. From there I finally was able to go into town to get Nyquil to start to help me sleep through the night. Since I started taking that it's been getting better. It's slow but I'm glad that I'm able to finally get some real sleep at night and not have to worry about coughing up a lung in the middle of the night.

With that being said I'm not letting it get me down. I'm working again and I'm making some goals for 2023. I'm hoping to get to achieve every since one and I'm hoping to finally get my hands on some spray paint so I can go back to my original art form. I feel like the time is right and once I get back up I am going to go to the supply store and restock all my supplies. IM ready. I'm finally ready to pick it back up. I also am looking at my route for next fall. Dad and I are planning a trip to the Grand Canyon to do some hiking that we have been talking about for years. It's been a dream of ours and I finally said **** it and will be making those plans to head in that direction and do that dream.

On top of that, I have been looking at the Smokey Mountain Half marathon. I know, I know, ANOTHER half marathon. What am I thinking? Maybe I just really enjoy putting myself through the pain and have the satisfaction of knowing I can run 13 miles. Whatever my reason is, I am definitely sizing it up and thinking about it hard. I have a few months before I need to commit to the training. Who knows maybe my crazy self will just go for it. I'm also looking to potentially find a better job that fits this lifestyle. I haven't found anything that fits the bill but I am keeping an eye out and applying when I can. It would be nice to make real money and not be tedious 24/7 on what I spend. Keep an eye out because a new vlog video is finally gonna drop updating you guys on what's been going on and maybe my goals for this year.

Love you all and let's smash 2023!
