The band’s facebook messenger chat page is exploding right now. We’re trying to get all four of us into a room together and it’s proving to be more difficult than ever before. Our traditional 6pm on Sunday rehearsal time is not doable. We’re waffling back and forth between earlier on Sundays and after work on Thursdays. Thursdays appear to be in the lead at the moment.

Scheduling things is difficult. Was it this hard to do when we were kids? Is this an adult thing? Is it a middle aged adult thing? It’s tough to say. Sometimes acting like a grown up sucks, but what can you do? The alternative (not being a grown up) is probably worse.

Okay. We’re booked for Thursday. I put it on my Google Calendar. It is officially set in stone now. Or something like that.

New year's eve is almost here, people are thinking about their resolutions for 2023 so I would like to say something

Buying a new planner and filling each hour of the day with a predetermined activity won’t solve problems that arise from exhaustion, burnout, neurodivergency or mental health issues.

Don’t plan for an unlikely future where all your problems have magically disappeared
