Happy New Year!

 

Hi everyone! Hope you all had an amazing Christmas, and that the New Year has been treating you all well!?  Just thought I would pop on and give an update on how things are going...

So, I had plans to start doing more blog posts and to do that thing I said with Gruesome Games where I'd post a game a day for a year on my other blog. Well, that hasn't started yet, mostly due to the fact that I just need a break after the holidays to recuperate...I always find this time of year stressful, and this year was no different. But overall, Christmas was quite good! Managed to catch up with an old friend who was back from Australia for the holidays, and even went out to my first concert (a stripped back, laid back Twilight Sad gig) in 5 years!

Anyway, the plan now is just to take things easy for a while, recharge the batteries, and hopefully get fitter and healthier this year and manage any ongoing illnesses to the best of my abilities!

I do still have big plans for this year though, and hopefully at least one of these will be kicking off in the next couple of months. In order to make this happen, I purchased myself an early Christmas present of a brand new PC!

The specs weren't bad at all for the £700 I spent on it, and I asked ChatGPT some questions about what I'd be able to do with it to make sure it was capable of performing the tasks I want it to do before clicking the buy button, and so far everything is looking good, so I'm hesitantly optimistic about things going right! More details will follow when I'm ready to get things started....

Once I've rested up a bit, I'll also get working on the Gruesome Games ideas, although maybe posting every day is a bit ambitious, so let's just say I'll post when I can.  I also have some other ideas about things I'd like to post here, but I know what I'm like so I won't make any promises!

Anyway, I'd just like to finish the update off by wishing you all a happy, healthy & prosperous New Year, and I hope 2025 is a good one for all of you! I'll see you again soon, most likely to talk about some of the awesome things I picked up at Christmas! 

Laters, stuffers!
