not dead yet

Yeah, I keep forgetting I have this journal. I'd promise to work on that, but, um, I don't see the sense in making promises I've no faith in being able to keep.
I am very busy, of late. Despite the fact that I don't have a job. Between getting on top of the housework, working on a sekrit project that's technically no longer sekrit but I'm not going to start talking about until a few more things sort out, getting on top of jobhunting, and doing financial education with my parents. And I'll be taking a late start class which starts later this month, too.
At least in the midst of all that I'm doing a lot better at staying on top of my health. I've been taking my supplements, which help immensely but don't always sit well with my stomach, and I've been more active. I still need to start exercising but I find it very difficult to exercise solo and yet I hate most forms of social exercise too. I did martial arts for awhile there but my disabilities flared and I got really tired of the assumptions that got made about my physical ability -- they'd both over and under estimate it and it just got exhausting mentally to be constantly saying BOTH, "No, I CAN do this, I will not be hurt by it," AND, "That I cannot do, sorry." The logic of what I can and cannot do may not be apparent to other people, due to a combination of high athletic ability and moderate mobility disability colliding in unpredictable ways, so I don't feel much anger towards the folks I was working with, I just don't have the energy.
Still working on figuring out an alternative for exercise. I'd love to go hiking with people or something but I haven't the energy to organise anything like that and I'd pretty much have to be the one organising it. It'll be easier when it warms up and I can go swimming at my parents' again, but that only lasts for so many months of the year and then I have to figure something else out again...
So, anyway, unrelated to that, I do want to blog professionally more, I just get super-distracted and never actually finish anything that's a proper article. And I've relatively little inclination to spend my time surfing relevant blogs and web-sites for stuff to talk about like that... anyone got ideas on what I could do that would be relevant and not high effort? I'll keep poking at finishing some articles, but some kind of other content would be nice. Ideas?
