It's difficult to get much quality work done when you're trying to do too much. I am definitely trying to do too much. Between taking care of my father and work I don't have much time for anything else. That's a tough realization to make when there are so many things I want to do.

So I'm pulling back from some of the things I want to do. I'm not giving up on them forever. Well, some of them maybe I am. There's only so much one can do. Especially if I want to do quality work.

I want to do quality work. I also want to make a nice living for myself. I've never been much of a business person. I want to work on that.

I'm not sure how to approach this pruning of my life. I do know most of my side projects have to be put down. Other than this blog anyway. This is fun for me. And while it isn't the writing practice I'd like to do, it will have to be enough for now.
