(Note: this post was started Sunday the 3rd, and planned as Episode 11, but it got pre-empted Monday morning and again on Tuesday. It then got dropped on the floor while wrote Singing in the time of COVID-19.)
I have not been getting much done. I'd originally meant this to be a mix of planning, accountability (i.e. writing out those plans so everyone can see how little I'm accomplishing), and random wibbling. I have moved the random part into another post so you don't have to look at it. TL;DR: see mood.
Actually, looking at my patheticmodest set of goals
from my New Year's
Day post, I see that I can count at least partial success for #1
(mainly because I did get to the dentist once, but I'm going to
count staying home during the lockdown under self-care), #5 total failure
for #4, and infinitesimal but non-zero progress on #7 and #8.
(There will be a brief pause while the bear claws his way up out of an infinitesimally deep mathematical hole. This is complicated by the fact that any sum of infinitessimals is still less than any given positive real number...)
(If he were a real bear as opposed to a surreal bear, this would not be a problem, since the real numbers do not include infinitessimals.) Anyway...
There some obvious categories of things I can work on:
- Paperwork. First my income tax; the deadline has been extended, but it still needs to be done. Then, the stuff aimed at the other certainty: advance directives, powers of attorney, a will for Colleen, and a comprehensive list of important documents, account numbers, and so on.
- The electronic equivalent of the above probably deserves a separate category. If I don't leave some pointers, some important things will become inaccessible.
- Music. I need to sing more often, and longer.
- Writing. Not merely DW -- I need more computer-related (curmudgeon) posts.
- Organizing and getting rid of STUFF. I'd say that this is a mammoth task, except that the STUFF almost certainly outweighs a mammoth and possibly even a medium-sized whale.
In the interest of making some kind of progress, I'm going to post this even though it feels incomplete. I could work on it for another month, add a sentence or two, and it would still feel incomplete. So...
