Tired Today

As the title read, I am quite tired today. I didn’t sleep through the night. I was up at 1:00 and fell back to sleep at 3:00, only to wake up at 6:30. Hopefully some coffee from Dunks and a decent breakfast gets me charged up and going. Now I need to think about what I am going to do today. I think I have two goals: the first goal is to do a little bit of studying for my Red Hat certification and the second is to do some work on the book that I really want to write. Even if I just got an outline done that would accomplish something.

This morning I got paid for my participation in the marketing research study so that made me happy. It was supposed to take 48 hours for the funds to come through and it took about 12. I needed the money quite badly. Well, there’s not much exciting going on in my life this weekend. I do think tomorrow I am going to help a friend to build a ramp for his outdoor shed and that should be fun because I like working side by side with him. We work well together.

One thing I want to do is create a routine for myself beyond just sleeping and eating. I don’t have much in the way of a daily routine so I think if I create something more then I will be happier. I want to make studying and writing a part of this routine, even if I manage only an hour of each per day. Obviously, I’d want to do more but starting slowly is wise.
