I had a lot of ideas for how today was going to go. I was wrong about most of it. It wasn’t a bad day by any means, I just didn’t get much done. I got caught in that trap where the to do list is massive and you’re surprised when nothing is completed. Too many ideas, not enough specificity.
My list included (but was not limited to) the following:
- make and freeze chocolate chip cookie dough
- learn more photo compositing, make awesome chimera, floating fantasy city & light speed travel poster; yes, all of those things
- do garden work
- vacuum
- make fresh pasta
- try letter locking

So, yeah:)
I started just about everything on that list, and finished none of them. Time to take a step back, pick one project, then break it down into the smallest possible parts and start crossing them off. And by framing the problem with more clarity. When I’m stuck, that’s how I move forward.
(Also by not being too hard on myself when I have a day like today. Sometimes, things take time.)
On the plus side? We’ve still got ice cream🙂

Yeah, I tend to get pretty restless and try to tackle too many things at once, but sometimes it’s nice to just do less but do them better. Thanks for sharing!
