3.289. Reflections on a Saturday Night

The AC has been on upstairs for most of the day. This is especially troubling given the disparity in temperature between upstairs and downstairs. I’m trying to keep it at 80, which is anywhere between 4-8 degrees warmer than downstairs. The key difference seems to be that there are multiple gaming systems upstairs and they run all day. This is what it means to have kids. The kids game and game and game and… You get the picture.

Tonight I’ll get a chance to spend some time with my lady. This is a rare Saturday event. Generally speaking, I have coaching responsibilities or dad responsibilities on a Saturday. However, that is less so the case this particular Saturday. Boys are mostly handled and I don’t coach this weekend. Instead I am taking the time now to get some writing in before I go be with the lady.

In so far as that goes, I am hitting a really good stride with the words leading into the summer months. Honestly, knowing what I want and what is important has been a huge boost for me in terms of productivity. I can focus on the needed and leave the rest of the nonsense to rot or be addressed when needed. Maybe I can start generating enough income to be able to pay these upcoming massive electric bills.

Some Thoughts:

  1. New Hobby: Rebuilding and Updating Macbooks. Not going great. Actually, going about how it always goes with me and software. It fights back for a long time and then I eventually figure out how badly I’ve screwed up and correct the problem. Still, the crazy tone my mac is making does have me a bit worried. That’s normal, right?
  2. Budgeting is really cool math magic. Until you realize that you have to only spend what you said you would. Then budgeting is junk.
