Sometimes when I don’t write my blog…it isn’t because I don’t have anything to say…ok, maybe sometimes…it is mostly because I am busy doing something else.
One of our key mantras when it comes to blogging is to make sure you are actually living rather than just writing about living. So, many times I get so busy living life that I forget to write. It is interesting that since our kids are older, I am having less and less time to write or do other hobbies.
But, I do have some projects I am working on or planning to work on.
Comics—as it seems I do frequently, I get behind on my reading. It makes things worse when I have new shipments arrive once a month. I am behind, but I will catch up—I always do.
Baseball Cards—I like to collect baseball cards. So every year, I buy the full set and put them in a binder. It’s time to put these in a binder. I also have some “junk wax” cards from the 1980s that I need to go through to filter out the duplicates so that I may sell them in the next yard sale.
Genealogy—”one of these days” I want to spend time working on several different areas in my family history.
And, of course, Video games—My focus right now is in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. But there are also several other games to play, including The Sims 4 and Final Fantasy that I need to spend time on. As far as COD:BO4, I hope to grow as a player with some specific bench marks all within roughly 30-40 minute blocks each day.
These are things that constantly keep me busy…and life in general keeps me busy. Sometimes I get behind in my writing and reading but I don’t get behind on adventure.
