Ever have those days where your mind just doesn't quite work right? Like low concentration low brain power days? Aside from today being like that (though I did manage to do a sudoku puzzle this morning), I've had several of those in the last week. Maybe it's stupid to be annoyed by it. But it impedes my progress on random goals, and I tend to be fairly goal oriented.

For example less than a week ago I decided I wanted to draw a dragon within a week, and nearly a week later I've only remembered that once. And naturally my concentration isn't solid enough to actually draw while I remember. I guess so long as I get one started before year's end I won't feel too neurotic over that one. But with the stress and the added strain of the holidays, the odds aren't looking too good. Oh right and the thing where there are other more prevalent priorities between now and then.

At any rate that annoying mushy brain business aside, I am doing my best to hang in there and do stuffs. Oh and I'm attempting the positive attitude most of the time too. Granted that's standard operating procedure, but given the ugh of lately it requires more effort than usual.

When this happens, I get all worried that my mind will never recover and I'll be stuck firing on only 10% or less of my cylinders. It's not as though firing on all cylinders is typical, but firing on at least 50% is or was. Eh, well at least I'm not curled in a ball on a closet floor refusing to leave the tiny little room. Cuz I could run with that urge... if I weren't so insistent on fighting such urges. Worried though I get, I still hold out hope that I'll be more with it when I can have a bedroom again after January 7th. It'll be easier to not be distracted by the goings on of the house, and having access to privacy really does one wonders.

And well, brainless and bedroomless, I did manage to finish a major project a week or two ago. So I was all proud of that. I'll get that posted sometime soon.

Well gotta go.

May your brain be working better than mine today,
Christina
