The purpose of this blog was to record my progress as I worked towards reducing my backlog, something that I have not been very successful in doing. That backlog was meant to include the books that I have purchased and never read, the shows and movies I brought because I wanted to watch them and then never end up watching them and the games that build up year after year because I want to play them. That is what I wanted to focus on.
My backlog is so much more than that. It is all the stories that I started writing that I never finished, the puzzles I brought and never put together, the craft projects that fascinated me at the time but never ended up completed. I love starting new projects. I will research heavily into a topic that takes my fascination. I struggle to complete them.
Starting today, I am making it a goal to update my blog every single day, write or edit one of my stories, work on a craft project while watching a show or movie, do the daily achievements on Guild Wars 2 and read one chapter of a book. I eventually would like to add streaming a backlog game on twitch for one hour, something I started doing but haven’t been able to continue since I caught covid a month ago. I’ve had a cough and haven’t been able to talk for long periods of time, which I need to be able to do when I stream.
I have limited time to do all those tasks. Four hours in the afternoon if I go to bed at 10 pm, so I get plenty of sleep for work the next day. As it is, I am running out of time for today. It is 9.40 pm, and the only thing I have done so far off my list is play Guild wars 2 and work on this blog.
I plan to write, watch a show while working on a craft project and finally read.
