November has been a mildly chaotic time (unsurprising for this time of year, especially for us). A short update in anticipation of the end-of-year holiday season. #amblogging #amwriting

I finally went to the Mothman Museum in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Here are some thoughts about cryptids. Why the heck am I so enamored by him? #mothman #cryptids #amblogging
Refilling my cup again -- resting, visiting family, getting inspired in a new city. Yeehaw, y'all. #travel #amblogging #monthlycheckin

I finally sat down and wrote a longer update, since I hadn't done one since August (oops). I'm still finding joyful activities that refill my cup, and promising myself that I'll sleep later. #amblogging #amgardening #travel #inspiration

To Do Lists Are Amazing
A couple of days ago, I wrote about how awesome it feels to get things done, and the satisfaction that comes with completing things you want to do. I wrote about that as if it were a new feeling, but one of the ways I keep myself motivated is by allowing myself a little taste of that satisfaction each day — no matter how productive I really am. Since January 1st, 2020, I’ve been keeping a to-do list every single day. I have recurring tasks on there and ones that only need to be completed once. I’ll admit to often checking off things on the list that I haven’t actually done, but for the most part, keeping a list has really helped me stay on top of things.

The Satisfaction Of Doing Things
In the last three days, in addition to my regular day job, I’ve recorded 10 videos for my YouTube channel. Some of them I’m very happy with. There’s a certain feeling you get when you’ve done things you had to do. But there’s a better feeling you get when you do things because you want to do them. For a while now, I’ve not really felt up to making videos for my channel. I’m sure some of my long time audience members could feel that as the content got less and less. I was just a little burnt out and had a bit of impostor syndrome to go along with everything else going on in my life. But these last few days, that’s changed. And I’ve finally felt like making some content again.

Seeing A Different Web
When I first used the Internet, way back in the mid-90s, it wasn’t really a thing people thought about. It wasn’t a big deal, because most people didn’t even have it. If you wanted to use the Internet, if you even had a reason to do so, you had to go somewhere else to do it. The library or your school. It wasn’t until 2001 or 2002 that I finally got dial up at my house. And I know that my experiences there aren’t all that unusual. You can look up the stats if you want, but the saturation of Internet in private households didn’t take off until the mid-00s.
