Winter has come to the Gulch, and I have settled into winter mode which is just plain slothful. I do my daily chores and then I sit in my chair and read. This does not make for scintillating TUAK posting.
Normally it’s been my habit to fill in the gaps with snarking at the news I read on the Internet. But lately I’ve been almost completely indifferent toward it all. I surf the news a little bit, but none of it seems worth spending any mental bandwidth on. So those filler posts haven’t been happening, and sometimes I’m down to struggling for a single post a day.
Sorry about that – wish I could say I anticipate it changing soon.
More musings like “Frugality v. Comfort” then? You are living “out there” after all… and anyone can snark at the nooz.
There’s nothing wrong with light postings, only a fool talks when there is nothing to say. I have to admit that when you do go with snark news filler, I tend to tune out.
When I look at the news these days, which I do daily, I have to remind myself that “news” is the reporting of something that’s happened, but is not normal. When I’m starting to get overwhelmed with the bad news stories, I sit down and watch this YouTube video to put things back into perspective:

No need to apologize, just keep me entertained! 🙂
Sloth away, my good man!
