While I don't even closely watch my Statistics any more, if anyone happens to keep a close eye on my statistics, they will likely see that for the last week and a half they have been rather dire. By that I mean I am not sure if I have completed a single task in the last week and a half. The honest truth is I shut everything down to go on a short holiday for July 4th, and never started everything back up. Now it is not hard to start things up, heck it basically is a single push of a button.
Why have I had such a mental delay in starting things up?
Well I have had a strong focus lately to get my budget back on track ( between the move and getting settled along with a new improperly gained sense of entitlement on a few things now that I have a job that pays me substantially more than I did as a Teaching Assistant) has been absolutely horrid. So I am trying to scare myself into straightening things out for a few months at least through my brothers wedding to no longer be living beyond my means, and get back to living well beneath them.
What does this really mean? Well for one it has meant less tea, and less crunching of boinc projects on all of my computers. I find all of those far easier to justify when the weather is cold out side. As if I am paying to heat my place anyway, I might as well have a few things generating heat that are doing good things for society. In the summer though it feels like I am using up even more money crunching because not only are the machines heating up my place through their use of electricity, but I also am using electricity to cool the very same rooms that my machines are heating up...
I hope to start up my tower again soon so I can start making progress on tasks again, but I am not making any promises and it may turn into something that I only run at night when it is cooler outside. Decisions... decisions, why must they often face off against each other?
