Self isolation getting you down?

This is a mental health check-in. Is the self-isolating getting you down? For the most part, I am doing okay. A lot of my friends think that I am an extrovert. I think I am more of an introvert-extrovert. An introvert-extrovert (ambivert), in case you don't know can be defined as: one who "is moderately … Continue reading Self isolation getting you down? →

A weekend in the life…

I had a “four day” weekend last weekend. It was just what I needed. I did errands on Friday: Blood work at the lab, and grocery shopping, on Saturday and Sunday I split the cleaning, and finally, on Monday cooked dinner and prepped a meal for tonight. I also reviewed my previous writing and edited … Continue reading A weekend in the life… →

The need to be consistent in one’s writing time

I have been finding it difficult to find time to write

Workstation in guest room I have been finding it difficult to find time to write because I am too exhausted. Between working full-time and the long commute, I am finding that I am too tired to write. Last Saturday, I could have written but I felt so drained that I just "chilled out" instead. I … Continue reading I have been finding it difficult to find time to write →

I didn’t do much of anything over the holidays

I had twelve days off at Christmas including weekends, and I didn't do much of anything. Prior to the holidays, I had lots of plans to write. I relaxed instead. In hindsight, I think I was too burnt out to do much. It has been extremely busy at work. It still is now that I … Continue reading I didn’t do much of anything over the holidays →
