12 of 12: A day in October 2023

Today is the 12th of October. Time to document the day with 12 photos. A mindfulness practice. A bloggers’ tradition kept alive by Caro from “Draußen nur Kännchen”. I feel sick today. I have worked until late yesterday. I also went to bed hungry. A bad combination.

As a designer, I spend a lot of my working time in front of the screen. To balance this, I spend time outdoors. Some days ago, on the 12th of April, I have joined the bloggers’ tradition of documenting my day with 12 photos. I have spent a wonderful day with my favourite person.

It’s a random Sunday. I still feel tired of the week. It was a busy week and my throat feels sore. Before going to bed yesterday, I took some medicine. My muscles ache.
