Starting over

I basically took a break.

From most things, it seems.

I stopped posting to my blog. I stopped making videos. I stopped a lot of things.

Most of that time was spent working. I have a habit of working too hard. Everything about me is all about problem-solving. If I’m working on some code, I work on that even when I’m not at the computer. It just is how I am.

Incidentally, if you were to look at me at work you would think that I simply don’t. I spend a lot of time looking at other things or just wandering around my house or the rest of my property depending on the outdoor temperature. I’m not at the computer typing, but I am programming. 😆

So I got a notice from YouTube that my channel is about to get demonetized because I’m not making content. It sucks. I wasn’t having the energy to make it.

And my photography output has also taken a nosedive.

I think I’m just tired of all that.

Half of making something real is declaring something publically.

So I think I’m going to start over a bit on myself.

A few months ago I decided that I don’t want to be on the working-for-someone-else treadmill. I want to strike out on my own. I have have the skills to be a photographer. I would love to make that my full-time job. I have the skills to take my slide scanning project over the finish line. I would love to focus on that. I have skills that I love to teach people about. I want to make videos again.

Time for a bit of a detour.

Exciting!
