Why I Can’t Complete a Project 365
Posted by LaDonna on 05/26/26 at 12:31 PM
Goal Number: 6 ♦ Goal Status: In Progress
I keep trying to do a Project 365...many, many times. My last attempt started on July 1 of last year. I set a notification on my phone for 9pm every night to make sure I had a picture for the day. I did really well for about 5.5 months, was excited that I was almost half way, and then...nothing.

To be fair, I did get super sick twice, both of which lingered forever. I'm more confident than ever that they're trying to create a super virus to kill us all off. The biggest problem is this business of ours. I don't really do anything outside of here anymore. I can only take so many pictures of my dog or what I'm eating at the moment. I don't really want to remember that all I do is sit in front of this damned computer making stuff that "isn't as cool" as the AI slop that's being churned out. I went through my camera roll on my phone trying to see if I had taken anything, but no. Declared that one dead at the end of January. Tried again starting March 1 and lasted a whole 4 days before I decided it wasn't to be this time again.

Seasonal depression and our financial situation made the biggest hit in December. Not that we really celebrate holidays any more, but we usually do exchange a gift on Christmas. This year, nothing. We didn't even have the money to make a nice dinner like I always do. I'm going to have to do a post on the main blog about what's going on there, probably when the whole mess is over. There's been more than one occasion that I wished I wasn't on this planet anymore...not dead, I don't want to die...I just don't want to be trapped here.

Anyway, I'm going to give this thing one final shot starting June 1. If I can't do it this time, I give up.

Also, need to start doing stuff on my list or give up on this, as well. I'm going to be 60 in September. If I keep putting this off, there won't be any 1001 days left.

#17 - Barefoot Shoes
Posted by LaDonna on 08/17/25 at 11:28 AM
Goal Number: 17 ♦ Goal Status: Completed
At the beginning of July, I got a pair of Hike barefoot shoes. For the most part, I really like them. The 2 drawbacks to them are the sole is thin, so you feel every rock you step on and if the pavement is hot, you feel that, too. The second is they are porous, so if it is raining, your feet get soaked. I'm going to have to find a differernt footwear solution for winter, but these work for summer

Psych - Really Starting Anew July 1
Posted by LaDonna on 06/20/25 at 04:51 AM
Man, I do not know what happened between the last post and this one. Time has been so weird lately. It seems like I wrote that just yesterday, yet months have passed. So today, with the Summer solstice, I'm setting intentions to get my life moving again. I'm forming the list over the next week and will kick off the new 1001 days on July 1.

Restart Number Who Knows at this point
Posted by LaDonna on 03/12/25 at 03:17 PM
You know, I can't count how many times I've restarted this thing. All I know if, my life majorly stalled. Looking at past lists I've had via Wayback machine, I really haven't accomplished much and sadly, a lot of things I thought were important to me are now totally irrelevant. So as of today, I'm crafting a new list. I'm making my official start date of April 1, 2025, approximately 3 weeks from today. HERE WE GO!
