You know how I get all these grand plans about how I’m going to rearrange my life so I get more done and have more time for myself? Once I was going to assign myself one big household chore for each weekend of the month, so that everything would stay pretty much shipshape pretty much all the time. Yeah, that didn’t work out very well. It lasted one week, I think.

While I’m working on a new plan, I’ve made a temporary compromise plan for ultra-hot days like today. Out of necessity, I’m working half an hour at a time, then sitting in front of the cooler for fifteen minutes. It seems to be working, although half an hour doesn’t really give me much momentum, so I’m not getting as much done as I’d like. Fifteen minutes isn’t really long enough to cool off, either, but let’s just get through Friday and see where we end up.

By way of disclaimer, I should probably add that sitting for fifteen minutes often leads to a nap of a considerably longer timespan. Which is not an altogether bad thing, in the big picture, and I’m a big picture kind of guy when it comes to naps.

Tonight's sunset.



If you were a neutral observer (and I assume at least some of you are) and you recorded my behavior as a key to how I work (which I assume you’re not doing), you might conclude that my “plan” was to put off everything possible until Friday, and then work like crazy one day a week, letting a few loose ends slop over to the weekend. Actually, that’s not such a bad plan, but the goal would be to do it all on Friday and make the weekend count for something. Yeah, okay. Maybe next week it’ll work out that way.
