The title of this post has been in my drafts folder since September. Hmmm. Well, obviously it’s a recurring theme. I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately. Today was my second day off after a nine working days in 10 stretch. Yesterday I looked at my long list of things I wanted to do . . . and went back to bed.<\/p>\n
I finally got myself out about 1 pm and ran a couple of errands. Then I even cooked a real dinner. That’s as opposed to heating frozen food or going out. All good but this morning I’m unmotivated again.I still have a lot on my list but I find it’s easy to rationalize staying in. I’ve been thinking lately how a couple of years ago I went out on hikes on this beautiful peninsula pretty regularly. Not so much now.<\/p>\n
At years’ end I tallied the number of days worked and found that 2016 was almost exactly the same as 2015. In fact, the last 4 years are remarkably close. That would be fine except I’ve stated many times, to myself and others, that I want to reduce my work load. Days like today, though, highlight the question of what do I do with the extra time.<\/p>\n
Jazz band starts next Monday so that will be something. It remains to be seen if I can practice more.<\/p>\n
I think about writing a lot but actually doing it less so. I did pick up the Stephen King book On Writing<\/em> yesterday at the library so perhaps there will be some inspiration there.<\/p>\n OK, up and at ’em. Time for more errands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The title of this post has been in my drafts folder since September. Hmmm. Well, obviously it’s a recurring theme.
