[Undividual] September

Dear friends, Happy October. Despite the incessant rain, I am feeling more cheerful about autumn than I maybe ever have done before. Summer was marred by injury, financial/job uncertainty, my dog being a dickhead, and the culmination of all these things really crushed me down a bit. Now it’s autumn, I am running again, I have a ‘real’ job, my dog is mostly less of a dickhead thanks to ✨doggy prozac✨ (it’s literally just human prozac in a smaller dose), and I stopped taking the pill as an experiment which means my moods are ALL OVER THE PLACE but mostly peppier than they were in summer. Here’s the blog with more detail on all those things and more, if you’re interested. (just to say to long time readers, it means so much that you are interested and look at my stupid drawings some/most months, and I don’t say it enough) https://emmacharleston.blogspot.com/2024/09/september-2024.html [September2024.jpg] There’s also a new episode of my radio show here: https://www.mixcloud.com/emma-charleston/audient-october-2024/ (honestly I am smug enough that I think this most months, but… it’s a fun one?!) I hope you’re all doing well, and if autumnal gloom is getting the better of you (like it does me most years tbh) I hope you can find cheerful things to make the days a bit less dark. Shout out to Jade and Emil, without whom I would not have discovered the joy of HEATED THROW, which has literally revolutionised my experience of the winter months. I am not being paid to say this, but if you are a miserable cold person like me, this is the one I have and it’s probably paid for itself already in the reduction of times I put the heating on https://www.dreamlanduk.co.uk/products/deluxe-velvet-herringbone-emerald-gr… Stay warm (with or without heated throw), [signature.jpg]
