This week I’m having trouble writing a blog post. I think I’m just having trouble figuring out what I want to say? So far, this past week was better in the aspect of getting pages out. I finished two during the week plus another last night, so I have gotten over the hill of the slump.
Granted, this past week, I have also been distracted. First, our household got a new gaming subscription, which I didn’t think would affect me all that much. I like gaming, but it’s not very often I find games that I play obsessively. So I wasn’t expecting to begin exercising my relatively weak self-control muscles, but here we are. If I said I was proud of how much time I spent on pages vs. gaming, I would be lying.
Secondly, I’m also working up the courage to start making and selling things. I recently made some wine bottle wind chimes as gifts for some family members and was surprised at how well they turned out. Opening an Etsy store has always been in the back of my mind, but I’ve never made anything that I feel would confidently sell. These are relatively easy to make, don’t take too much time away from my parenting responsibilities, and come out decent. So it’s something I am going to take the risk of pursuing.
So yeah, lots of distractions, but in the end, pages are getting finished, and things are getting done. Maybe not as many as I could be, but I wonder if I should take things at the pace I am vs. going all in at the risk of burning out. I don’t know, but I guess we will see. God bless and peace be with you!
