The Productivity Conversation I Didn't Expect to Have
I sat down to write about productivity. Instead, I accidentally solved my productivity problem.
It started with a simple request. I wanted to turn my struggles with overwhelm and chronic illness into a blog post. Multiple interests pulling me in different directions, dialysis eating up twelve hours a week, YouTube consumption replacing creation - the usual productivity paradox.
You read more about it here.
But something unexpected happened during the conversation with my AI writing assistant.
That was 90 minutes of fun for the whole family! Highly recommended. And it resets so can be played again or re-gifted.
Went to the city to get a flat cap. Came back with this awesome looking puzzle box.

Out for breakfast with the family. On a non-holiday weekday no less. The decadence!
Pulled in Too Many Directions: When Chronic Illness Meets Creative Overwhelm
I spent four hours yesterday watching YouTube videos about productivity.
The irony wasn’t lost on me. There I was, consuming content about being productive instead of actually being productive. But here’s the thing - I wasn’t just being lazy. I was overwhelmed.
I have too many interests that all matter to me. I love to code. There’s something magical about writing text and making computers do things. I’m supposed to be working on an iPadOS app for my wife.
My sister in law just held a talk in Speyer.

Tomb of Annihilation for Foundry Virtual Tabletop is out! I’m seriously tempted to grab a copy.
I just pre-ordered myself a Feather Ruck. Grab one yourself while they are available. Only 500 of every color available for now.
