Three Hours of Sleep
Since last night’s blog post I’ve gotten three hours of sleep. The child was up all night with me and me with him. His brother went to sleep at 2 am. He fell asleep on the couch at 9 am. I was able to nap a little after that but everyone needed to be awake…

Quiet Sunday
I’ve been fairly productive today. I’ve helped keep track of boys and the cats. I’ve helped with laundry. I’ve done my scripture study and hymns. We sold an old phone to be recycled for a whole dollar. I even had time for a shower between video games and social media. Nothing too awesome or weird…

Not Everything Got Done Today
I’ve been playing and event in a mobile game all day. The good news is that I won. The better news is that we did not have any emergencies today. Of course the bad news as always is that I was not as productive as I needed to be. Alex’s room is horrific. I need…

Too Many Video Games?
I am a first generation commercial gamer. I played the Atari when it came out at seven. By twelve I had branched out to Dungeons & Dragons. A few years later I worked all summer to afford a Commodore 64, a disk drive, a cassette recorder, and enough games to keep me out of any…

Productive
I have a bad case of imposter syndrome when it comes to my personal productivity. I know logically that I contribute to my household and by doing so contribute to the world. But I just don’t feel it. My habit tracking app helps. When I hit publish on this post I will have accomplished all…

New Phone
I got a new phone yesterday and gave my old phone to my son who had been taking it whenever I played audio. It works great and has a lot more memory. I put a game called Bud Farm: Idle Tycoon on it. It is the first mobile game I’ve had in almost a year.…

Following Directions
I learn best by doing things wrong and realizing that I have done them wrong later. Then I do something different and hopefully less wrong. I repeat the process by hopefully again continuing to be incrementally less wrong as I continue to go. This is time consuming and not always productive, but when I have…

Zero Mobile Games
Yesterday I deleted the last mobile game I had left on my phone. Theoretically that should give me more time to do productive things. And yet it’s taken me until 7pm to do this blog post about theoretically being more productive. I still need to work on some digital art tonight. I sit here stoned…

Non Player Characters
Stephanie has left us to go on an adventure. I am home with our two sons. I can’t help feeling like a non player character when I am left to guard the children and the house. I won’t be as productive with other stuff today because the kids come first. But things are good so…

So Far So Good
I got a decent night’s sleep. I got the boys dosed, fed and one of them out the door. I got some stock art approved. I’ve played my mobile games and am having some coffee. I’ve got to make a phone call today (yuck) and read some of Stephanie’s poetry (yay). It should continue to…
