For the last many years on this blog I've looked at my posting frequency as a matter of how many posts per day. And for years I've averaged close to 2/day. This past week that ratio's been upside down. I've averaged day/2.... Meaning, 3 posts in 6 days. One post every two days.
What's up with that? I wish I could say it's because I've been too busy— too busy doing things to pause and write about them. But I have not been busy. At least not that busy. Alas the reason I've posted so little this week is because I just... haven't... cared.
A big part of it is I've been tired. I'm not sure why I'm tired. Again, I haven't been super busy. I haven't been putting in 12-14 hour days at work, and I haven't been running myself ragged with things outside of work. Frankly I've been lying around like a bump on a log a lot.
A week ago I fretted that I hadn't done much over the weekend. This weekend I managed to do even less. I just couldn't must the energy... or the caring... to get out and do anything. 😞
What's got me down? I don't know. Maybe it's just a reality of getting older that I struggle so much to find energy.
I'll see if I can at least get my blog rate back up. 🤣 I do have a ton of things I want to write about. I just have to choose to spend the time writing. My energy to write comes in bursts, though. To make that work for blogging I'll start drafting blog entries when I have a spurt of energy, then post them at a steady rate. It's a technique I've used before when I've been pressed for time. Now I'm just pressed for energy. 😞
