Today is gray and raining. And I spent a very minimal amount of time in the hammock shop, contributing both to the hammocks quota for the community, and to my own labor balance. I did intend to go again after lunch, and instead slept for three hours, and spent time with my family and online. So, it's another day of digging the hole.
I know how to make hammocks. I'm really good at it, actually. And I enjoy it, as well. It can be physically tiring, and I've made so many in a row that I started to have carpal tunnel symptoms, but for the most part, I've found it to be pleasant work. So why I choose to spend an afternoon in other pursuits is a good question, and one I'll need to answer if I'm going to change my habits.
I love sleep.
So, sleep has been good to me. Unfortunately, it doesn't get me labor credits.
In the Twin Oaks labor system, we have scheduled work and unscheduled work. Missing a work shift is a rarity for me, as I know people are counting on me. But my shifts don't add up to quota, and I'm expected to find work to fill in the gaps. Somehow, I don't. That's the main thing that has to change, I think. Sometimes I wish I had a 9 to 5 job, but I'm sure there would be other problems, if that were the case.
No, what I need is an attitude change, and a schedule that doesn't have big blanks in it.
much love,
Kelpie
