This picture's a little out of focus, but pretty clever. And that's exactly how I've felt the last couple weeks; just a little out of focus, but still pretty clever. I've thought of a dozen different things to blog about, and have even written a few posts, but haven't finished any of them because I can't think of how to end them.For some reason it's been really hard to stay focused on anything since the assessment season ended at work. I can think of millions of things I want to start working on, or doing, or participating in, but just can't focus on any one thing long enough to actually do anything about it.
On the list of things to pursue:
- Get my hunter's safety certification so that, if I ever choose to go shoot things other than cans, I can do so. (I'm not worried about actually being safe, but about being able to get an actual license to kill things.)
- Get an amateur radio operator's license. I've heard it's pretty easy to do. You don't even have to learn Morse Code anymore (but I know it pretty well anyway). I just have to actually get out and do it.
- Plan out where to go and what to see on our upcoming trip to Italy. I have various thoughts floating around in my head, but haven't written anything down. The normal me would have already made a spreadsheet showing when each site is open, the cost, what bus lines reach them, etc. I've sort of started a list.
- Plant a couple letterboxes around Tooele. I even know where I want to plant them, I just can't focus long enough to go out and do it.
- Finish painting the fence. I have a pretty good excuse for this one, though. It's been raining so much lately that I haven't had an opportunity. But I'm sure that I won't do it even when I get an opportunity.
- Evict the birds living in our barbecue grill.
- Start working on various projects at work. There's plenty to do, and not much time to do it, but I can't quite seem to get motivated to start into some of the projects I need to do. Well, I'm not getting much support from above anyway.
- Get off the couch and go to bed. Maybe I'll accomplish this one.

you know morse code...shocker! aren't we all a little out of focus lately? yep, just as i thought.
maybe you and Russ can do your hunter's safety together! My family has been trying to get him to finish it for a while now. Good luck with the list!
I also finally have tons of time on my hands, but I don't want to do anything. Last week there were tons of things I wanted to do and no time.
I hate that feeling. I've found myself on several occassions staying up till 3 or 4 am working on things i've wanted to do for months. And I've still got a long list of things I still want to start and finish. What a summer! stati
I enjoyed this post. And that stamp.
Maybe you should try some Prozac.
