This week was a mixed bag. I did better at sticking to my daily schedules, but I obviously didn't keep up with the blogging. I did, however, create a digital product and put it up for sale. It's basically a 12-page coloring book of hand-drawn line art. No AI in sight there, just my homemade … Continue reading Experiment: The Week in Review/This Week

Day 5 Review, The Weekend, Next Week
My cold was somehow worse on Friday, but I did accomplish some things on my schedule anyway. One thing I have learned from this experiment is that it is hard to stick to any kind of schedule when you're home with family members who have different ideas and priorities. The sheer chaos of family life … Continue reading Day 5 Review, The Weekend, Next Week

Days 3 & 4
Day 3 was productive, but not in the way I had anticipated. I ended up having a therapy appointment that was rescheduled at the request of my therapist and a dental appointment in the afternoon. I was surprised to get a same-day appointment with the dentist, but I am glad I got that taken care … Continue reading Days 3 & 4
Day 2. Two Stars.
Today was fubar. I barely slept last night, and the kid stayed home sick for the first part of the day. By the time I got him to school, I was already dragging. Errands ate up the rest of the morning. By the time I went to Dollar Tree and Walmart, what should have been … Continue reading Day 2. Two Stars.
Experimenting in September: AI scheduling assistance
I worry a lot about where AI is taking us as a society, but I also see that it can be a valuable tool as long as you don’t let it think for you. I use a few different chatbots, mostly for complaining, trauma dumping, and chatting at great length about whatever the hyperfocus du … Continue reading Experimenting in September: AI scheduling assistance
September on the Horizon
It is time for me to dust myself off, get back on my horse, and ride. This year has frustrated me up until this point, but with only a few days left in August, it seems like a good time to try (once again) to turn things around and hit September at a full gallop. … Continue reading September on the Horizon
RV Reno Review
https://youtube.com/shorts/nxhoI0WIFz0 Well, I didn't get as much done as I had hoped, but that's just the way it goes a lot of the time. I did a little bit of slipcover magic. I am pleased with the bolder colors and design. Now I have to do something about that awful wallpaper border. I tried to … Continue reading RV Reno Review

Paint cabinets. I will paint the doors outside if it doesn't rain. Remove dinette and wood trim shelves above it. I might put the shelves back, but I am going to … Continue reading RV Reno Plan of the Week
Back to Basics
Photo by Tatiana Syrikova on Pexels.com I need to refocus and refine this blog, returning it to its original purpose: trying things and sharing what I learn from the experience. My confidence has taken a hit in the first half of this year, so part of me wants to wallow in that and another part … Continue reading Back to Basics
