Spent a bit of time this weekend putting parts of the house into a semblance of, if not actually ‘order,’ then at least ‘less entropy.’ Boxes went to the loft, so now I can actually get to my exercise equipment again, though I didn’t really need to use it this weekend after moving all those bloody boxes up to the loft. Funny how that worked. Now, at some point I’ll actually have to open the boxes to see what’s in them and where they should be going, but in the meantime just having them out of the way is a big plus.
Found myself a new local karate school; they sound like they’re the kind of place I like (Okinawan derivant, triple-focus on kata, kumite and waza, tonfa is one of their weapons forms), so once I’m back in some kind of shape I’ll be visiting to see whether it’s a fit.
No writing done. Bad me. So much stress and involvement from work, the brain’s just empty. Blood, rock, stone, same thing. I’m going to need to set up better ground rules for engaging the muse, because I’ve been blowing her off a lot lately.
And that’s why this post is about rearranging. That time thing, there’s just not enough of it to screw around and do things on the fly anymore. Time to set aside actual chunks To Do Things With. Dunno how that’s going to net out yet, but it’s something I’m thinking about.
Meh. I want a summer vacation. June to September, remember what that was like?
Yeah. Me too.

least next time you wont be able to get away with the excuse that moving the boxes means ya don’t need to use the exercise equipment!
Cool on the Karate, kinda funny though when i was growing up the local karate clubs didn’t come in Orange and Lemon flavours, it was all plain vanilla “Karate” clubs. now they all have strange new titles tacked on at the start.
June to September holidays.. mmm

It sucks on the writing though, but I’m sure now that those boxes aint taking up space in your house and mind that maybe some creative juices will flow again.

Time to plan those vacation weeks then, before the year is over, and before work makes plans for them for you.
