Regardless of if I actually have less things to do recently than the last three weeks, I feel productive again. I feel a little energized to get stuff done. Apparently all I need is the feeling that I’m not overwhelmed. Even if I really am, haha.

I’ve only been able to explicitly work out using Wii Fit four times this month. Today will be the fifth and last, since April starts tomorrow. Other than working out today after work, I will also be tidying up the yard by bringing in a shop vac from the neighbors and vacuuming up all of the dead leaves and debris in the yard. I’ll also clean dishes and put the ones in the dishwasher away. Oh, and lets not forget about folding the laundry that I did over the weekend.

But I still feel good about all that. I’ll probably still have time to mess around should I choose to. I may end up troubleshooting the extra desktop system I’ve got to try to get the hardware working, then I’ll install Gentoo on it and turn it into a monitoring station for my web server, which this blog is on.

Oh, I’ll also probably shred some more old documents that need to be shredded. And I might start sorting out the last three months’ worth of sales tax receipts.

Also, money kinda sucks. It’s nice when Laura and I get little spurts of extra cash to get some things done, like coach lights, a Blu-Ray player (wait, I never posted about that?!) and trips to Disneyland. But some of that extra cash ran out and we’re wanting to keep more of a buffer in our checking account than we were, so it’s back to curtailing spending. Especially since we’re finally getting my life insurance setup. Beh. Money sucks.

With the exception of last weekend, I’ve been pretty damn busy the last three weeks. It’s had its highs and lows, but at least I wasn’t totally bored. Well, I think the pretty damn busy stretch is mostly ending.

Laura and I have gotten the house cleaned up a lot. Most of the outside work I needed to get done is done, save for clearing out debris and potentially planting two new plants. We want to get bar lights installed but that’ll take a little more time to get together. And we’ve got a couple get-togethers planned soon, but nothing big.

So I think we may be out of the woods. I may get to work out a lot more now. Let’s hope.

Speaking of working out, our neighbors want us to get a membership at Snap Fitness, this little gym within walking distance of our home. Apparently it’s $55 per couple per month for membership and there’s no contract, so that’s appealing. We may actually do it, because Wii Fit can only go so far for a cardiovascular workout.

Good times, good times…
