A quick thought
I have always struggled with this time of year. I can’t think of a winter season (not just the holidays mind you, this goes past that by several months) that I didn’t struggle with something unless I was on the road and so busy I didn’t have time to think.
Thats the problem: more time to think, less time to do. Especially if what you desire ‘to do’ is out of doors and requires daylight. Sometime over the last couple weeks, we passed below 10 hours of daylight per period of ‘day’. I only sleep (maybe) 6 hours a night. That leaves me plenty of time for the old brainium to start some convoluted thinks, and not a lot of time to put them into play.
And I have no materials to be building a kayak this year,,,, I may need to rectify that soon,,,, At least when I am monkeying with a frame, my mind is focused and not wandering around, falling into the grass and playing with its toes,,,,
it’s been doing that a lot the last couple of weeks. At least when I was wrenching on Buff, I hit shower then the sheets and dropped like a felled tree. Maybe I should have gone out on the lake and fought wind for a few hours. I’d be too tired to think about shit right now if I had,,,, (the erg does ok, but I have to force my time on it since I am not distracted by scenery, and no way can I do that for 5 or 6 hours like I can on water,,,,)
(and this thinks without outlet is why they would need to lock me in a padded cell if I ever went to prison,,,, I’d be stark raving mad in short order,,,)
And yes, I have been trying to work on the books,,,, Issue there is ‘laptop=cat distraction’ of late. I am trying to retrain them that when the laptop comes out, DAD NEEDS SPACE,,,, Don’t know when or how that came to change, but since last spring, if I pull out the Mac, here come Kats,,, and they want my attentions ‘Neooowwwwsssss’.
All Three of ’em!!!
Whatever thoughts I had for writing, GONE,,,,, every! single! time!!!!
I haven’t made much headway in the last couple of months, to say the least, and right now I could be (all this dark time, idle hands and whatnot,,,) ‘cept for ‘felinus interuptus’,,,,,(like right now, I am working with a BT keyboard, and my phone, and they couldn’t care less about that, but if I so much as lift the lid on that MAC,,, first Mama, then Grizz, and of course Zooms has to come see what all the fuss is about,,,,,) ( someone might say, ‘switch it over to the phone apps’ but that shit doesn’t work. The two programs I am using are way bigger than a phone can handle, and no, I don’t want to switch back to word format, so I can go through all that trouble of switching it back later (did that when going to publish WIngs, and let me tell you, watching paint dry is more interesting and less frustrating.)
Ok, now I am just bitchin’,,, though I do need to somehow retrain them to leave me alone then,,,, (or block the pet doors and shut them out,,,,, That may get me nasties in my bed as payback,,, Mama doesn’t play nice,,,,)
subsisto sermo statim Dio!
