The Beginning At Last

That feeling when…

You are trying to read or write and your eyes keep unintentionally crossing or blurring.

That’s the struggle I’m having right now. 😄

I have been trying, with minimal success, to reply to comments for the past 45 minutes or so, and keep finding myself drifting off mid-reply. 😴 Anyone else ever have that?

Methinks it’s time to call it a night. Even typing this post is akin to sprinting in mud at the moment. I shall return tomorrow and resume where I left off.

Be well and goodnight, friends. As always, you are appreciated.

    I can totally relate. I feel like that at times. In between trying to finish my book, prepare for the next WordPress post and reading and Commenting on post, my eyes try to give up on me. It just means we are spending to much time on the PC and then stress is overwhelming.
    Trying to multitask and trying to get to much done at once.
    It’s a need of a break .

    Hope you have a good night Brother

        I’m on three with minimal impact. Trying to exercise in between to get the blood flowing here.

        I think I have hit my wall with summer weather and it’s just draining me.

        Luckily it’s almost over for you, I think we pretty much have this entire month, September it may drop a bit but not much. October is more when you feel the noticeable shift.

        We will likely still get a few hot ones, but we should start getting some shifts towards the end of this month and into Sept. Hopefully not many lol

    Only time when I drift off in mid-reply is when I have to double check something. Like how a word is translated or spelled. Otherwise I’m super focused when replying to comments.

    Hey, it sounds like you’ve been pushing yourself pretty hard. It might be a good idea to take a break, get some rest, and come back to it with fresh eyes. We all need a break sometimes. Take care!

    Yes, when you’re mind and body are so tired, trying to read and write during those times can be difficult. Your faithful followers will understand.

    Yeah, for sure, especially the last few weeks. Have to rest up and comment when the energy is there.

      Essentially, yes. It’s tough when you’re really overtired. I feel like I have to chip away at it.

        You do amazingly well, so prolific. I’ve been curious to ask for a long time now, whether you made a determination to write every day, or to write when you feel to, or just wants to be written. Curious your motivations. 🙂 If I’m being nosy ignore me!

        No, not being nosy lol
        I just do it when I feel I have something to write, really. The words are either there or they aren’t.
        I honestly have no desire to make a conscious effort to sit down and write daily. At that point it feels like a job to me.
        I also don’t see the value in my writing most of the time, so I am perfectly content not writing for a stretch. I have a certain odd detachment from it at times that I can’t truly explain lol
        Truth be told I very frequently toy with the idea of stopping altogether 😄

        Seems a healthy balance, a way of carrying it lightly. Stoic view I guess, as we’ve touched on before. 🙂

        I have a very odd relationship with my writing, but I guess it works in it’s own weird way 🤷‍♂️😆
