Good day to you faithful readers. This weeks post is brought to you by our advertisers, No One! Yeah. My mind has been all over the place lately and I’ll give you one guess as to where it hasn’t been. That’s right! In New Homestead. The editing process has stalled and I need to light a fire under my own ass to get it done and out to my beta readers.
The trouble is I keep finding other things to distract me! Curse you YouTube!! I have decided to roll back the clock and climb into my way back machine to dig out my old day planner. I watched a video by a wonderful creator and author, Jenna Moreci on YouTube. In one video she described using a day planner to organize her life. I think I’m gonna give it a try.
Using Excel, I made my own planner sheets and starting August 1st, I will be planning out my life, week by week. Sounds boring, but if I leave it up to chance and feeling, then I ain’t getting shit done. Plain and simple.
Upside: I am looking forward to planning out my days and weeks and getting into a strict and organized schedule.
Downside: My brain is already hatching a plan to turn my hard copy planner into a series of webpages to use on my tablet. The iPad is a source of distraction, as is my phone (when it isn’t playing music). I need to curb my usage of the technical devices, except my laptop when writing.
In other news, I have had my second appointment for my root canal and I can say with out a doubt, that my Endodontist, Dr. Thomas Vokel, is a genius! Three injections of lidocaine and 15 minutes later, I am out of the chair and on my way! No pain later on either! Now to wait for my regular dentist to call to setup the appointment to REPLACE my eff’d up crown!
TTFN!
