Astute Unruly Me

My life in words

What is going on here?

There are things that I want to do and things that I need to do. These things often compete with the things that I should do. For instance I need to finish my notes. Client interactions are not going to document themselves. I would like to spend an hour at a time working on learning Spanish. I should just suck it up and buy a new computer because my 2012 MacBook Pro can barely keep up with me typing. 

I find the weirdest thought inspiration to write. I encounter so many interesting and confusing people daily and I am not allowed to talk about them. Because of this I don’t spend much time being an interesting person. I have books that I want to read but that conflicts with the chores I need to do. The cat isn’t going to pick up her poop off of the rug. She is a difficult creature. Right this moment, I should be working on a few notes, stretching, or getting ready for tomorrow. But I’m not. 

What I spend my time doing and not really succeeding at is figuring out how to run my whole blog from my iPad.  

Hold on… I just switched devices. My iPad doesn’t skip when I type.

I just realized that one of the reasons I don’t write so much is that I spend a lot of time organizing and planning in my head. I know that doing isn’t my strong suit. I will plan myself to death. I can just write in a different app and transfer it all over. I make things harder than they have to be. 

What was I talking about again? [Read what I just wrote]

SO, I had plans of being a rich writer. That didn’t happen. Since, I am doing fairly well as a therapist so I need to finish my certification. I need to do my taxes. I need to keep my house clean and the kid fed. I hope I can get to the things I want to do sooner rather than later.
