I have a woodworking project that’s been “in progress” for a long time. It’s small but I experienced a setback early on which killed all motivation. But I went back to it yesterday and moved it forward a bit more!

There’s still no AI solution that can change filters for us smh

I’ve a couple of small projects laying around. I’d like to create something(app, game, whatever) used by other people. That isn’t just what I make at work.

I try to work on them on and off at least somewhat consistently. Doesn’t always work like that though, hah.

That’s an amazing shot

I tried it once using a meditation app I don’t remember the name of. It didn’t really do much for me other than temporarily relax me until I got back to work or whatever I was doing. But sometimes I do a basic meditation method when I have trouble falling asleep. The idea behind it is to try and clear your mind and think of nothing. Unfortunately I can’t empty my head completely.

What I do instead is trying to force everything out of my mind best I can and picture a balloon. Focusing on it alone, imagining it inflating when I breath in and deflate when I breath out. Doesn’t work every time but it’s given me the most success. Making me relaxed enough to allow myself to fall asleep easier.

My submission of the Grand Canyon. I can share a cropped square if you need it.

This sounds fun! I don’t really have a great camera but maybe I can find something from a past trip.

Also, I believe you mixed up the months at the end of the post?

A lot of stuff is up at work. Busy times and stressful days. Hopefully it’ll calm down starting next week.

This Discuss community isn’t specifically to talk about this one Lemmy instance. It’s to talk about anything and everything. For example the fact that Vlemmy unfortunately had to shut down without notice. I hadn’t visited that instance but it always sucks when things suddenly go away.
