    Try meditating for 20 seconds and see how fast your mind gets distracted! Totally normal. Plus wap makes it easy to find a loophole.

    True! I give it another try now in the evening I hope my concentration is better now. Usually it's better than in the afternoon, although I continued today and got at least some things in my head. Hope it works out for me tonight.

    I've been reading about "being in our true temperment" meaning: if you are an early riser/morning person, night owl, etc.... you have to plan your world as best you can around your natural temperment.

    Mine is VERY early riser, super concentrated morning person, afternoon lag. Plan accordingly. My mistake that I keep making is that I know this about myself and yet continually go to bed too late. Trying to fix that and go to be half an hour then an hour early in increments.

    It sucks because the world is not set up to match our temperments!!!! Sometimes we gotta do stuff at the wrong time for ourselves.

    Yeah this is very true. I realized this in school because at a certain time I just couldn't concentrate anymore no matter how I tried. Usually my concentration is good from the early morning until 9 am, sometimes 11 am to 2pm and then in the evening. If I got up early I can only learn until 8pm, after that time my brain is not available.
    BUT if I can be a night owl (what I love, haha) I can learn until 3 or 4 am. Generally I am a night owl but as you said unfortunately the world doesn't always fit our temperments.

    Tonight I was out for a walk and saw yet another tiny house mounted on a pole full of books! Second one in my neighborhood. It's called "Little Free Library" and it is a tiny wooden house full of books that people can take or leave. I love this idea and want one myself. So I look up the website, ready to get my little house and it's 250$ What the...??? 250$ for a little wooden house? Some of them are even 400$ !!! I wasn't expecting THAT. They are beautifully made and weatherproof and all that but still... that's a bit steep.

    Tiny house filled with books, Y U so expensive???

    Order - Little Free Library*

    Also my pp called me and the damn phone glitched out (either his or mine) and it hung up after one ring. I HATE IT when that happens. But it's happened before and will happen again, *sigh*

    I have never seen those before what a neat idea!!! But yes, $250 is crazy. I wonder if I could try and make one this summer. If I do I'll send one your way ; )
