Weekly updates + announcements (Patreon)

Hi everyone!

Here I am again, with this week's updates & announcements..

1. How I'm doing

I tested negative for covid on Wednesday, and so I was able to attend my surgery follow-up appointment at the hospital on Thursday.

On the upside, my doctor is satisfied with my recovery progress. I still have a ways to go, and she will see me again in 6 months, in May.

In the meantime, I need to be patient and take things slow. 

For reference, I realize that being in a moving car causes discomfort to my wound because of the vibration of the vehicle. So, I found myself clutching at my surgery scar on the way to and from the hospital, to support the wound and minimize the discomfort. 😅 I'm also still walking slowly and gingerly, because of the same reason; I can feel the vibration in my wound with each step I take as well. 😅

But, overall I'm making progress, and that's good.

On the downside, covid really did a number on me, and I'm still feeling the after-effects even though I've tested negative. 

Mainly, I find that I feel fatigued quite easily, so I find that I'm working very slowly compared to pre-covid.

I'd originally imagined that by this point, I would be fully back on my normal work schedule, but it looks like I still need to ease myself into it. Which I absolutely plan to do, this week.

So you can expect to see some episode notes this week - it won't be my full load of daily episode notes, but I hope to put out about 2-3 days' worth of notes, depending on how well I'm doing.

2. Dropped post for Lost You Forever

That said, my big accomplishment this week was completing my Dropped post for Lost You Forever, which should be up on the main blog as you read this.

I'm really sorry to those of you who've been following along during my watch, but I hope the Dropped post will help explain why I tapped out in the end, and what I liked and didn't like so much, in this show.

3. Castaway Diva as the replacement show

I've picked Castaway Diva as the replacement show for Lost You Forever, and my episode notes on E1-2 were my other big accomplishment this week. I was working so slowly that it literally took me an entire day to write those notes. Normally, I would've finished writing those notes in just a couple of hours. 😅 But at least I'm feeling well enough to write, even though it's slowly?

If you missed it, you can check out those notes here!

4. This week's Entertainment Drop

I was able to prep this week's Entertainment Drop as usual, and in particular, I am sharing a very lovely video titled "Day in the life of a Korean cafe owner." It's super lovely, and I hope you'll take some time to check it out, even though it's not actually k-ent related!

Thank you everyone, for all of your patience, support and encouragement. You guys are the best. 🥲

Hugs to you all.

KFG ❤️
