Today absolutely frigging dragged on - I really am due for some fieldwork so I can get out in the fresh air again but nothing coming up for a while :c
I might get moving on my plans to be away in August.
I’m so torn between (a) ending my lease and dumping my shit in storage, or (b) just leaving everything at this rental and going away then coming back.
(a) is much, much more cathartic and closer to my heart… but also challenging and stressful in the short term, and more expensive in the short term due to moving. But does give me the option to extend my break or travel while working remotely if I decide to do that
(b) is easier and cheaper in the short term but psychologically I feel like I won’t get that satisfaction of closing off the past and moving into a new phase of my life with new aims, habits, etc. coming back to this place could see me falling back into a rut because it’s the easy choice. Also will get more expensive if I stay away for longer.
I’m giving myself a week max to sleep on it and decide. At this point I know I’ll be away for a month and the rent is 400/week so financially it’ll only make more sense to dump into storage maybe if I’m away for three months or more. But it isn’t just the finances… I desperately need to shake things up!
