Singletons.life

Tell you what I do know. Mad month on the first month of the year!!! Where shall I begin? Been unable to blog for a while due to work being rather wild again. Now it’s calmed it shit, so have I.

I bought another printer, an Ender 7. It’s good. It likes to leave skid marks on lithoprints that I started doing. Another printer I’m now learning, takes up a lot of my time to make the printer to its max potential!!! Again brought it 3rd hand. A lot of people do not have the patience for this hobby and can easily pick one up. There has been a lot of logistics around the flat to make this set up work. Now I have a plan to have my own crafting room. I’ll be moving into the lounge itself. Trials and errors going on all round. But first. Let’s get this printer working!

I started a carnivore diet. The main reason I started this, was to save money on food. That, I achieved 😁 I spent around £120 on shopping this month give or take. Massive learning curve all together. You gain soooo much energy from it it’s unreal. I need to learn to pace myself with the amount of energy. I don’t eat 8 times a day. Usually 2 meals a day now. I wish I had done this a lot sooner for sure! I started off with the supermarket mince meat making my own burgers, bacon and egg. Throwing in a lot of steaks and eating duck fillets, which are incredible!!! I did enjoy the fact of using my skillet pan, but fuck me does it make a mess!!! Managed to find a dirt cheap grilling machine for £10. What mess!!! I do miss the nicer foods don’t get me wrong. Saving sooo much money on this, it’s a no brainer to stay disciplined to this diet.

I’ve been able To change my website around. If you’ve seen it before, you can tell it looks different 😁 I ended up playing with designing my own theme. Within the themes, you can then customise what you would like on your page. Within the features you are adding, you need to learn your limits within these features. Took me two attempts to get it right. Some features didn’t allow you to do things and others well. I managed to achieve this for free 😁.

Been exploring the world of Etsy!!! Looking into selling my first print by printing lithophane keyrings. Figuring out on postage and packaging has been rather fun. Keeping this singletons.life brand alive, I managed to set the packaging up to £1.50 to pay for everything. Includes a logo sticker for the envelope, Thank you card, on a 1st class send. I’ve noticed a lot of sellers are on the second class idea. I mean, if that’s what people genuinely really like second class to cheapness, it’s an easy change. Once everything is in place. I shall attempt to sell my first print and roll with it from there.

I’m hoping to get a car replacement at the end of this week 😴. Vehicles are the bane of my life. Hoping that I can do a straight swap 🤞🤞 it’ll be a massive help if it is. Means I can progress further to my plans and achieve more. Till then the stress of this vehicle shit will be a burden till then. Until we meet again! Keep your wits about me week as I shall inform you on how Friday goes.
