talesoftheinbetween &mdash; RandomThoughts https://mfwritings.writeas.com/tag:talesoftheinbetween Daily posts - either fact or fiction - about what goes on in my life (includes thoughts too now) Sat, 18 Apr 2026 22:18:43 +0000 I feel like life is beginning to pile up now. https://mfwritings.writeas.com/i-feel-like-life-is-beginning-to-pile-up-now?pk_campaign=rss-feed <![CDATA[I feel like life is beginning to pile up now. Things are waiting to be done and I'm just chipping away at nothingness. You know the real important tasks need to be done now and I'm just wasting time doing little things that make me feel good or productive. I'm just putting things off and for what? I don't know??! I'm fustrating myself and frankly it's becoming somewhat annoying. I need to organise and get started on a lot of things but I'm working a stupid amount of hours which isn't really helping me in the slightest. 9 to 5 and then 2/3 hours in the evening, most evenings. I've also been sick these last three weeks now and on top of that on vacation two weeks before that. So I feel like I'm 5 weeks behind already, with my weekends quickly being snapped up with social tasks and other various activities. Ontop of that I still want to sleep well and rest well and workout. So it's all a lot at the moment. I already know what I need to do now I just have to plan it out and look at the week and month instead of the hours and days. But still I want to complain. p class="b"#TalesOfTheInbetween/p]]> I feel like life is beginning to pile up now. Things are waiting to be done and I'm just chipping away at nothingness.

Especially when it builds over time, day by day you're getting worse but you're still carrying on as usual because you aren't so bad yet. Then it hits you and it hits you hard. It's breaks down not only your internals but external life also. Everything hurts all at once and when you live in a state with a failing healthcare system it hurts even more. Don't even bother calling your gp, you ain't getting through to anyone. Idk I'm just venting. I'm tired of being tired. I'm definitely sick of being sick. Also has anyone noticed how things are broken and worse in this shitty new iOS update. Like wtf man can't even type properly and the shitty glass bullshit is so shit. p class="b"#TalesOfTheInbetween/p]]> It's quite tiring and draining being unwell.

I'm aware. A lot has happened in-between now and then, like always I got sidetracked and lost my routine. I went away twice in the time I was on break and I also pitched in to help a friend with his startup. Yes that startup which I expressed wanting to join earlier in the year. I suppose God is indeed always listening. I'm not going to lie I have missed the brain dump that is this medium and I definitely wish to get back into things. So like always I will start again. Maybe this time I'll last longer than the first time. I truly feel like I have a lot I wish to achieve and like always it's all about one step at a time. So you know let's start getting shit done once again. p class="b"#TalesOfTheInbetween/p ]]> It's been awhile. I'm aware.

Like you honestly end up working more hours. I'm doing 12 to 14 hours daily and I couldn't even tell you why lol well I know why but you know what I mean. You end up connecting more with your local team after doing a shift so you end up doing 2 shifts a day. Your regular 9 to 5 then another 4/5 hours. Which isn't great but surprisingly I have the stamina and capacity to do so. As you know I barely work 9 to 5 locally 😂😂 Luckily I have one day left and then I will truly enjoy my holiday! I can't wait. Working remotely with hours in the time difference ain't the one. Such a major inconvenience. p class="b"#TalesOfTheInbetween/p]]> Working remotely in an odd timezone ain't the one.

How as soon as you break from your regular scheduled programming how productive you feel. Like I'm on a break far away from home, and I'm waking up earlier, sleeping (kinda) better and working out even feeling the urge to do so. I know I keep going on about it but I'm just as shocked as you are. It's very much unlike me as some of you know by now. Hell I'm even writing this unprompted so make of that as you will 😂 but it's fun. I like this, I'm hoping this habit translates well once I return home. I rather not slump back to old habits. p class="b"#TalesOfTheInbetween/p]]> Isn't it kinda amazing. How as soon as you break from your regular scheduled programming how productive you feel.

It's been a busy couple of weeks. I now sit over 7000 miles away from my home. Working. Still working. That much hasn't changed but it's odd. All my daily tasks and activities all stopped last Wednesday. Which is a bit of an oddity. Now I'm back and getting shit done. Even tho I'm working life feels a bit freer I'd say over here. I woke up and ran which I've ever done in my life. 6am start to my day feels a bit insane when I type it quitely to myself lol. It's approaching the middle of the day and it feels like it's going quick! Idk how to handle of this. Life is so much more productive when you don't have end users interupting you every 3 seconds lol p class="b"#TalesOfTheInbetween/p ]]> It's odd. It's been a busy couple of weeks.

It's natural when you're young to not care about things, as the impact is quite minimal. But I feel when you're older and as you gain more to lose, and so on and so forth you become that much more inadequate to deal with things. Like I want to be better equipped but sometimes life moves so fast it certainly doesn't feel that way and you'll eventually get through it and it may or may not work out but you feel oh that wasn't THAT bad but when you're going through it, it feels as if the stakes are higher. Idk. Maybe I'm reading too much into it but when you become response for an additional person and moreso, it at times feels harder to deal with. I've become less belligerent and more understanding. Perhaps to a fault. But yeah. Idk. I'll just be vaguer and nonsensical next time. p class="b"#TalesOfTheInbetween/p]]> I've noticed as I've gotten older my ability to deal with stress is slowly getting worse.

I don't know what it is. Yesterday I was working from home and boyyy I was on a roll. I was working on shit for work then I was homelabing tf out of my new setup. I've almost finished setting things up, then I got my Gemini pro limit (I'm assuming for the month?? Or day??) It's honestly made life so much easier, the perfect assistant and it's creating documentation for me on the fly so fucking amazing! Things that would have taken me months I'm managing to hang out in days. But yeah back to the office today and it is suuuper dead honestly, idk why I'm here but is what it is. I can work on some shit and fix on some other shit. I hope to post more often until I close the gap but honestly it's going to be a busy weekend.

I've managed to close the gap to only 2 days since the last post. I am trying to back fill these posts which you think would be easy but it's not. It's not that I don't want to write shit but sometimes I do forget, or it's a lack of free time I'd say. Either way it's just an excuse which I really need to straighten up. Also random thought. Aren't toilets just weird like especially here, where I am. Just give me some water to wash my ass. It's not that hard!! Honestly pisses me off. Ontop of that no soundproofing.
