I think that might be my secret to “success”
My Success today is doing laundry and drafting emails 🫢
Might fuck around and clean a bathroom or write a few paragraphs for a short story.

I had been procrastinating on a straightforward but boring work task for weeks. Somehow the recipe to actually doing the thing quickly was a couple hits and Sugar Ray at 10:30am on a Saturday morning. I’ll take it, universe!

Rec’ing this with two caveats: that it’s not super long-term and that you feel some personal purpose in what you’re doing.
It’s an intense and potentially overwhelming state but there’s also some exhilaration in having your work be so obvious that you just have to do it – no time to dilly-dally!

To get a bit of momentum I do the tiniest amount of the task and use that success to do the next bit until I somehow finish and/or go beyond what I needed to do. It’s not always fast but it works for me.

It’s black history month. Support your black friends and learn the origin of like every American popular musical genre everrr.
Once I’m done with the 40 + genres, we’re diving into the diasporaaaa.
And then at some point I’m talking cash shit about the summer of love and what was cooler than stinky trust fund kids…I mean hippies in San Francisco... I’ll give you some hints, same time period but across the bridge in Oakland. There’s also 1980s Washington DC, fuck it even 1960s Detroit.
I just really fucking hate the Grateful Dead fans. Sorry. Not sorry.
Perfect listening for cleaning the house and doing art projects.
Tell a friend.

You SHOULD be rinsing your rice before you cook it.
But if you aren’t today is the PERFECT day to start.
Rinse your rice in cold water to get the starch off it, agitate the rice. save that milky colored water in a large container. Keep rinsing the rice until it’s clear.
Cook your rice and eat it.
Let the rice water sit overnight so that the hard minerals evaporate.
You can dilute the rice water with more reg water to dilute it (like if you have HELLA plants like I do) but stir it up bc it might settle.
(You can either add filtered water OR you can add more water before you let the hard minerals evaporate)
Now you have a natural and free fertilizer for your plants. Use it all in one day tho.
Repeat once a month, every other month or when your plant babies need some extra love especially during the winter months.
