starting over not necessarily the prettiest process but definitely a humbling one a fresh start a clean slate sometimes we just need a new beginning and despite my initial plan to

重新開始，不一定是最漂亮的過程，但絕對是謙卑的。一個新的開始，一塊白板。有時候我們只需要一個新的開始，儘管我原本計劃

start the year right and hit the ground running I ended up avoiding it because I wasn't ready for that at all but in my time away living like a

正確開始這一年並立即起跑，我最後逃避了，因為我根本沒準備好。但在我獨居的時間裡

recluse I at least managed to document a few things I read a few books I turned another year older made time for some hobbies and went out into the world for a

我至少設法記錄了一些東西。我讀了幾本書，又老了一歲，為一些愛好騰出時間，走出去到世界上

bit but despite my well-intentioned efforts to have a break and embracing my time off the thought of picking things back up seemed more and more daunting and when it was finally time to

一會兒。但儘管我有好意的休息和享受我的休假時間，重新開始的想法似乎越來越令人畏懼，當終於

get up and get back to work I found myself struggling to get started on anything and so today I decree that rotting season is officially over and it's time to get it

是時候起來重新工作時，我發現自己很難開始任何事情。所以今天我宣布擺爛季節正式結束，是時候振作了

together so one thing that I need to get started on is home projects I have put off so many you see that pile over there yeah that's also going to be handled so

起來了。所以我需要開始的一件事是家居項目，我拖延了很多。你看到那邊那堆嗎？是的，那也會被處理

I have three things that we're going to do in the next maybe today honestly today and tomorrow let's get started so this corner very familiar it's in all of

我有三件事我們要在接下來的...也許今天，老實說今天和明天要做完。讓我們開始吧，這個角落很熟悉，出現在我所有的

my videos and as you can see I have some frames L sitting on the floor for like a better half of the year um and it's finally time to do

影片裡。如你所見，我有一些相框在地上放了大半年了，終於是時候做點什麼了

something about it I'm thinking of putting a print up on this wall maybe even a gallery wall so let me let me show you what I'm working with i

我在想在這面牆上掛一幅畫，甚至是一面畫廊牆，讓我讓你看看我在處理什麼

thrifted a bunch of frames honestly no offense not really my style oh this was 14 bucks I also got some prints from Staples I got like a bunch of them to

我淘了一堆相框，老實說無冒犯，不太是我的風格。噢這個 14 塊。我也從 Staples 買了一些印刷品，我買了一堆來

match those frames so that's the plan I'm honestly I'm kind of nervous I last I've been thinking a lot lately on what it means to build momentum from

配那些相框，所以這就是計劃。我老實說有點緊張。我最近一直在想很多關於什麼是從

scratch the longer we take to pick something back up the harder it feels to start again at the turn of the year I was feeling very overwhelmed and it took me

零開始建立動力。我們越久不撿起某件事，重新開始就越難。年初的時候我感到非常不知所措，我花了很久

ages to just start on anything at one point I even thought there was something wrong with me what I think I really needed needed was to go back to making things simple

才開始任何事情。有一度我甚至覺得我自己有問題。我想我真正需要的是回到讓事情簡單

again okay first painting colored all right so what I'm basic do it you like this is so unnecessary definitely don't have to do this but basically I'm putting some of this matte

好的，第一幅畫，上色好了。所以我要做的基本上是...你喜歡，這太不必要了，絕對不用這樣做，但基本上我在塗一些這種啞光

Modge Podge onto prints because when it dries it can give it sort of a texture so it's like a fake painting almost I've seen a bunch of DIYs do this so I want

Mod Podge 在印刷品上，因為乾了之後可以有一種質感，就像假畫一樣。我看過很多 DIY 這樣做，所以我想

to try it um I guess it's doing okay this is my first time doing this sort of thing so if this turns out bad I'm just going to have to live with

試試看。我猜還可以，這是我第一次做這種事，所以如果這弄砸了我就只能接受了

okay it's still drying but you can kind of see the textures I am I am impressed I'm going to move on to the next all right it's the next day and the

好的，還在乾，但你可以看到那些紋理。我很印象深刻。我要繼續下一個。好的，第二天了

paintings are looking good they're drying I wanted to start off off today by decorating this wall I was actually able to find this sideboard on Amazon and I figured it matched my other shelf

畫看起來很好，正在乾。我想今天先裝飾這面牆。我在亞馬遜上找到了這個餐邊櫃，我想它跟我的另一個架子很配

so it would be a good option for now I mean I like I think it's fine for my needs for a long time I was trying to

所以現在應該是個好選擇。我是說我覺得對我的需求來說還可以。很長一段時間我一直在試圖

figure out what I can put on this wall currently I was using like a tiny little whiteboard to write my ideas on and often I would just run out of space so I

想出可以放在這面牆上的東西。目前我用一塊小小的白板來寫我的想法，經常會寫不下，所以我

thought that maybe I can convert this into a story wall I got a very quick tutorial on how to use a drill so we're going to try to we're going to try to do

想也許我可以把這裡改成一面故事牆。我剛得到了一個非常快速的電鑽教學，所以我們要試著做

that oo I ordered a picture light so it's going to go over there this works wa so now that we're done with that wall I'm going to move on to assembling all

那個。噢，我訂了一個畫燈，它會放在那上面。這行得通，哇。現在我們完成了那面牆，我要繼續組裝所有

the prints that I added a little bit of texture to let me put that together and then hopefully transform this wall so for some of these frames I'm thinking I'm going to remove the

我加了一點紋理的印刷品。讓我把那些組合起來，然後希望能改造這面牆。對於這些相框，我在想我要移除

glass oh my God literally this this is horrible finally got the last to freaking get out of this Frame after removing like 12 Staples yes have a frame literally this literally such a

玻璃。天哪，這太可怕了。終於讓最後一個從這個相框裡出來了，拿掉了 12 個釘書針。是的，有個相框了。這真是一個

fail I don't know if you can see that but the picture is too small once I put it in the frame wow I'm an idiot I am an

失敗，我不知道你能不能看到，但圖片太小了，放到相框裡之後。哇，我是個白痴，我是個

idiot after putting the print together I started tracing the frames to plan a layout at this point I had a few mess ups off camera and generally things were

白痴。把印刷品組合好之後，我開始描繪相框來規劃佈局。在這個時候我在鏡頭外有一些搞砸的地方，而且整體事情

taking so much longer than I thought but I me to never do this again and I started to question my entire life long I that might be way too much I

比我想的花了更長的時間，但我向自己保證再也不這樣做了，然後我開始質疑我的整個人生。長長...那可能太多了。我

could also just do one big frame oh my God I just stepped well that I'm never going to use that again holy I can't believe I

也可以只用一個大相框。天哪我剛踩到...我再也不會用那個了。天哪我不敢相信我

just did that oh boy I don't know if you can see it oh boy oops oops oops oops it's a common belief that you need to know everything before taking the

剛剛那樣做了。噢天哪，我不知道你能不能看到。噢天哪，哎呀哎呀哎呀哎呀。人們普遍認為在行動之前你需要知道一切

plunge but the truth is the doing comes first before the moment but no matter how far behind you think you are how do you expect to get anywhere if you never start the

但事實是做在前，時機在後。不管你認為自己落後多少，如果你從不開始，你怎麼期望到達任何地方？

car I put sort of an outline on the wall I think I'm missing like maybe one little frame that I can put right there but we're just going to ignore that for

我在牆上放了一個大概的輪廓。我想我可能少了一個小相框可以放在那裡，但我們現在先忽略它

now I used to think by the time I was in my mid 20s I would have it all figured out but I think we all know that's the Fest thing from the

我曾經以為到了二十幾歲中期我會全部搞定，但我想我們都知道那是離事實最遠的

truth it's full of cycles of getting it together then it falling apart and each time all we have to do is take the first step and start a little Cozy

事實上生活充滿了振作起來然後崩潰的循環，每次我們要做的就是踏出第一步並開始。一個溫馨的小角落

Corner I still think that I can add way more I think this is a good start to a gallery wall okay good morning good morning I thought I was done this project of

我仍然覺得我可以加更多。我認為這是畫廊牆的一個好的開始。好的，早安早安。我以為我完成這個項目了

mounting my gallery wall but remember when I said I wish I had maybe just one more small frame right there you will never believe it what are the odds I'm actually

掛我的畫廊牆，但記得我說我希望那裡再有一個小相框嗎？你絕對不會相信。機率有多少？我真的

shook look how perfect this is Boom honestly I totally forgot that I had that frame it was just chilling on my shelf in the other room room for the

震驚了，看這個多完美。嘣！老實說我完全忘了我有那個相框，它就在另一個房間的架子上放著

longest time and I was cleaning up yesterday putting away all the tools it caught my eye and I was like oh my God it's the missing piece baby don't you feel the

很長的時間，我昨天在整理收拾工具時它吸引了我的目光，我就想天哪，這是缺失的那一塊。寶貝你不覺得

timeing when it Feel So Right Dan in the we are officially done we are done well not officially I still have actually a lot more um a lot more plans

時機...當感覺這麼對的時候，在我們的舞蹈中。我們正式完成了，我們完成了，嗯不是正式的，我其實還有很多計劃

for this for this office but boom I love it I ended up taking taking out the glass of these two as well um oh my gosh I'm so happy about

給這個辦公室，但嘣！我愛它。我最後也拿掉了這兩個的玻璃。天哪我對

this sit down in this corner not bad not bad that take so long

這個太開心了。坐在這個角落。不錯不錯。那花了好長時間
