Day: March 6, 2026

Fri. Mar. 6, 2026 – because I said so, that’s why

Warm and moist again. Unpleasant in the sun, ok in the shade. Partly cloudy to actual rain is possible if the national forecast is true. Yesterday it ended up being partly cloudy, and the clouds were low and dark. All over town it was similar, low dark clouds, no rain, and humid.

I lost most of my morning to sugar. I really need to figure out a ‘breakfast-y’ snack that I can eat instead of a donut or some other sugar. Now that I know for sure what’s happening, and I can see the graph, I’m less interested in continuing my bad habits.

In the afternoon I did my pickups and I dropped stuff off at the shop. I didn’t make it to my rent house to see why the garage door is jamming. Just as well because when I rescheduled, she told me about several other things I should take a look at. I really need to schedule a few hours there. That’s not much, since it will be the first time since the storm cleanup…

Today I’ve got a couple of pickups. One is right by the house, one, not so close. And there is an estate sale that has some stuff for my hobby that I’d like to pick up if the price is right. All this is mostly work avoidance if I’m honest with myself. Yesterday took far too long, and it felt like a couple of months ago, before I realized I was spending all my time doing pickups.

I’m bidding on less, in fewer auctions, and winning fewer items because I’m less aggressive on price. It’s a noticeable difference. Just because I’m not using the extra time effectively, doesn’t mean I don’t have more.

And I need to be better about that. Meantime, stack. It’s easy!
