Quiet
I’m afraid of the quiet. I always have background noise. Always. When I’m up I have music playing, the tv on or both at the same time. At night I leave my tv on all night long. I don’t know why but I feel like I need to make more of an effort to sit…

Back In The Day
Getting back into blogging in 2024 is weird. In the early 00’s I was a very consistent blogger and had quite a few regular readers that would comment on my post and I would comment on their posts. It seemed more natural and impersonal. I fully admit that I haven’t read a blog in at…

A 2 Post Night
I didn’t intend on writing 2 entries tonight but I was going through my drafts folder and saw the last post and it’s still very true so I thought why not! Procrastination is still plaguing me, to the point I want to stop thinking about doing or trying anything because I know that I will…

The Inertia of Life
I envy those who seemingly make big life decisions with ease. There’s things I want to do, places I want to go and I just can’t seem to make them happen. I tell myself I should “just do it” but then talk myself out of whatever it was and I’m inevitably disappointed and regret not…

Procrastination
This is me writing a post, probably about nothing, because I’ve been putting off blogging since earlier this year. I don’t know why I avoid doing things that I know will make me happy(ier).

On Grief
Grief is such an odd thing. My mom died a few months ago. I’ve struggled with her death quite a bit. For the last several years I was her care giver, driver, going out buddy, etc. I would see her at least daily and sometimes multiple times a day and going from that to her…

January Complete
Going back over the goals I set in this post and I’m already behind where I’d like to be. I’m happy with the goals that I’ve been doing but I need to do more. Running has found its way back into my life more this year. A few years ago I decided I wanted to…

Consistency
I struggle with being consistent. I get really excited about something new, dive into that thing for a few days/weeks and then it falls by the wayside. I know this about myself and it frustrates me immensely but even knowing it I do that I continue to do it. How do I break that cycle?…

WordPress
I’ve used WordPress for years on my own servers. I moved this site over to wordpress.com thinking it would be easier. I can’t stand the backend and it’s always getting in the way when I want to write something. I had my settings the way I like them on my own server and I’m not…
