I have had one of those weeks where life got in the way of ...well, life. At least what I think I would like to be doing with my life. I did take a moment, while locking the back door tonight, to stare up and appreciate the full moon for a short while. So it’s not all hard.
Sometimes there are just things that need to be done before the fun or enjoyable stuff and sometimes by the time you get it all done it’s time for bed and then miss out on the fun stuff.
Over the last week, or so, the computer and I have been having a “stare off”. I only open it for banking and essential email checks. Otherwise I glare at it across the room or don’t make eye contact with the word document icons. I’m winning. But I don’t feel good about it.
I am using my still lost timeline documents as a very poor excuse. I’m sleeping through my morning writing time and too busy/ tired/must watch reality t.v. of an evening to get any writing done then. Even as I write this the guilt increases but that doesn’t help. I just need to sit down and write, or type or scribble.
Not even the kitchen door can help me now; only a shopping list and a caricature of my sister, by my daughter, have made it there all week. And even then my daughter got there first.
I think I need to employ the “Butt-in-chair” theory with a little focus. Well as it happens my butt is in a chair right now...maybe after I hit the post button I could take on one of these word icons after all and see what happens.
I’ll let you know how it goes.
Happy scribbling
