My blog about motivation, finding time for trading, self improvement in life

Hello,

I havent worked on trading for long time. Really what I have learned from the podcasts - it is that I need to analise my trades, not just place trades. So placing trades was more motivation, you just open like trading view or metatrader, place them, watch them. But I am never making profit. So I decided I need more analysis, backtesting. And here it is harder thing to do - it is boring.

But also I need to analyse how can I improve my time. I have programming job, where I work 36 hours per week. Also now since I recently started, plus I have this privilege of shorter work week, I need to study for work to have an edge against other programmers. But damn it is so hard after this.

I also do some other stuff which eats lot of time - gym, walking.
So I tried hard this week after talkign with one trader to be more disciplined. I managed to work and studyt about 40 hours this week but really studying ended some time on sunday afternoon.
Oh and I have 2 flats rented, so need to manage them also, which takes time.

Now after so hard strugle to at least make those 40 hours study plus work on programming/psychology, I have little headache, I am thinking it might be cause by this forcing myself. But who knows,maybe some other things like unhealthy food cause it? Ate lot of unhealthy food past few days like big mac, chocolates, potatoe chips, cola. Why I do this - because I had damn surgery in spring, plus some unpleasand ant painful checks after surgery. So I awarded myself budget for unhealthy food, so this will be temporary, the budge t is going to an end.

I think I want to get some feedback from people, otherwise I could write for myself. My really first step to trading success is to damn find time, then motivation. And they kind of allign. Because I maybe do something inefectivelly because I think - I have the time, like if I start work past 9 AM, so what, I can end work day later. But that make me have no time after work for trading. I have remote job so starting 8 AM should be easy as â– â– â– â– . But it is not. Yea, sometimes I cannot fall asleep easily so I wake up later, if I would force to still wake up early despite not having slept enought, then I would have to suffer whole day and have lower productivity. Sleep is one of the most important things to productivity.

Ok, past few days I started tracking my time, to find out where does it disaapear.

Lets analyse what happened today:

Yesterday I went to sleep at about 11:30 PM, so should theoretically get up at 7:30. No, that does not work - after alarm clock rings, I am so sleepy, I slept till 8AM. Who knows why I am sleepy. Maybe wrong sleep cycle. But I cannot know exactly when to set alarm clock because the sleeps are random. Heard there are apps and sleep tracking devices and they adjust alarm clock based on sleep cycles. Not sure, I am not fan having blootooth transmiter on my body. Actually yesterday I did not have problem falling asleep and maybe did not even wake up at night to pee.

What I did today:

washing, eating, vaccuming, cleaning room, putting clothes to dry, shopping, shitting , showering: 4h 20m

Going check rented flat, how they live, anwering email for another tenant: 35 minutes.

Study programming: 1h 15m

Searching girls: 20 m

Reading book “six pillars of self esteem”: 1:45
Watching youtube video The SECRET to actually have FUN while studying 25m
Some other psychology stuff: 15m

Fun waste of time (from my hours accumulated for fun as motivation reward): 1h 50m

Light sports: 30m

Now searching for trading related forum where to write this blog and writing itself - clock shows already 50minutes.

So practically if I want to go to sleep 11 PM, I have 35 minutes left, because on 10 pm practically need to start preparing for sleep, maybe bit later but I see if I do later, then I end up going to sleep later than 11. Better would be to go eearlier, in case I cannot fall asleep insnatly, and seems like might be the case today.

So fun waste of time for whole sunday does not sound like a huge - 2 hours on sunday for fun time only.
Yea, lot of studying non trading stuff. On one hand - if I trade during the week because markets are open, then do studyt for programing and psychology on the weekend - it would be good.

Overall kind off productive sunday, just that it was non trading stuff.

But this book about six pillars of self esteem really constantly teaches about responsibility. Like nobody will save me, I am responsible for my life. I am responsible to find time for trading if I want to be more independent from bosses. Probably I will then have more self esteem if I become independent and powerful.

Before this book I thought people somehow have self esteem without achievements. But really - it makes sense - when you achieve, you have confidence , you have self esteem. Girsl want you even if they want you because you are rich, it is better than they not wanting you at all.

Yea - gym is for girls wanting me for my body, not for my money. I want girls for their bodies. But them earning money also plays a role - I do not want to pay for everything when we do stuff together. Even if I would make easy money, I would then feel like they are for my money, not for my personality and body. Its like a dog or cat- they are just fun to be with, fun to touch and they do not give money but we love them. I want to be like dog or cat also - be loved for just being me, not for providing cash.

Yea, still it is weird. Lets say after 8 hours of sleep we should have 16 hours of day. But I had time for studyting and rent work - oh its like 8 hours. Not a little. But what about other 8 hours - yea , some sleep because slept over 8 hours, then lgith sports.
But the damn eating cleaning and similar stuff part takes a lot - above 4 hours.

Ok, still good to track. What are your thoughts?

Damn this also I am not sure how much worth of the time it is - on one hand I need analysis, maybe somebody will motivate me. But writing this also took lot of time. If doing this everyday - it is costly.

Gave this post to chatgpt - it says:

I think you did a really solid job of logging your time — that already puts you ahead of most people who wonder “where does my time go?” but never measure it.

:smiley: but chat gpt tends to please us often.

Good start of day - had good night sleep, probably did not wake up to pee. In the morning wanted to pee, combining with alarm clock, made me not sleepy.

Drank iron, i have deficiency, and after that it is recommended not to eat for luke 1 hour, so started work at 7:30 .

But during work after like 1 hour wanted to â– â– â– â– , and i wanted to shower after â– â– â– â–  and eat breakfast. Which took about 45 mins, which deleted that half hour earlier start.

Now had lunch, it is 11:54, will have to wakj bsck home for like 25 minutes.
But i need to walk, i feel my head already feeling dmall headache whe i think like i need to focus and complete tasks, i need to make finish work early , without procrastinating.

Also yesterday in the evening had dmdll headache but did not need tablets, just fell asleep and in the morning no headache.

But i do not like when i have it again after working like 2 hours. But currently not having when resting during lunch, but while walked to lunch place, i felt it.

So to force to be productive, need to somehow make to not have headache. I do not want to eat painkillers just to be productive.

So if when resting there is no headache feeling it means the work is causing it by trying to force my brain to focus.

Headache kills motivation to focus, since i do not want headache.

Ok going back home.

Btw i see my blog was moved to trading journals but I myself placed it to lounge since plan for now is to write about my non trading stuff and work on finding time for trading as the first thing.

Nobody will save me, only I am responsible if get out of slavery.

Ok, will write while walking.

Checked my timer, it shows 55 minutes already spent for lunch. Time goes so fast. I still will spend at least 25 minutes to get back home.

I would even loke to go to shop but i have to force mysrlf not to i guess. On the other hand - if my brain wants rest, maybe i should?

It us a conflicting thing. 10 extra minutes will not rest my brain much. I would need like extra hour walk or sports.

Hmm idea, go to gym? Since i need attending gym anyway. But plan was not today.

If i was feeling even more terribly, then i guess gym would be good option, it is better than sit with non working brain. But maybe i somehow will survive those 5 remaining work hours and be productive enough.

Btw people complain about shitty wearher hut for my head to cool down it is good, like 14 degree celcius.

The best outcome from any training I ever had was from a time management course based on Steven Covey’s work.

Basics -
List al tasks.

Mark each as urgent or important or both or neither.

Mark each task to be done immediately (urgent but not important), deferred (mark the slot on daily table) (important but not urgent), or delegated (to someone else or to technology).

Urgent things are done soonest.

Important things get more time and also times when attention or concentration is best.

Ask yourself why you need to do things which are neither urgent nor important.

Live happily ever after.

thanks for ideas. Just why mark those tasks? Really feels like boring and wasting time.

Ask yourself why you need to do things which are neither urgent nor important.

Why ask?

Sometimes you will find on your regular to-do list tasks which are not now needed. Sometimes these need to be consciously reviewed and purged.

Some tasks need to be done to stop them being a nuisance or risk later. The classic example would be backing up files.

So quite ok, at 6PM managed to work 7h 15m . Stopped at this because made some visible work, so I have something to tell to boss tomorow. I want to avoid overtime in case there are some things, better let they cut some tasks off or whatever. The more I do, the more boss might think I will have to do. So If I work a lot hours now, I could have shorter friday. But then in case there is lot of work to do, boss might expect that I work longer.
I have agreement of 36 hour work week. So if I would work 8 hours per day first 4 days, I could have 4 hours day on friday. But usually I work less than 8 hours a day.

Yea, thinking - 36 hours work week plus 4 hours study - would be just 40 hours standard week for people. But for me it is so hard to collect this. Might be that it is because I am working remotely and have that flexibility. WHen I was young and remote work was not that popular, I used to rush to be at work at 8:30 AM, even exceeding speed limit if I was late. That was fear driven. Yea, I used to end work work at like 17:30 or little bit later if I am late to work but that used to be not a lot. If I am late like few minutes after lunch, I had to tell to boss. What a slavery. But yea - way more time after work day :slight_smile:
I do not want that much fear driven but probably I need little bit more fear or smth to work when I have no serious things like going to doctor.

Yea but problem really used to be in case I was having bad sleep - need to get up and work with sleep deprivation which is not productive. But somehow that used to be rare. And if like 1 hours of deprivation for 1 day - not a huge thing, can survive. If that would be constant, then would be a problem.

So now I am cooking and while waitign till food cooks, writhing this. And damn, at the moment since the time I finished work - already 40 minutes passed. My cooking was simple - just put meat into oven and macaroni to the water. Where the damn time goes away. Peeing? Launching anonter laptop, suspending work laptop? Damn. Do I need a camera to review where the damn time goes away.

So now I should study at least a little bit to not accumulate all the study for the weekend. I have study debt accumulated. Since I started new job by having high salary, and very importtantly - remote position which was hard to get in my own country - companies started to do hybrids, I now need to be good so that they keep me. And â– â– â– â–  those local jobs who do not allow full remote! Yea, on the other hand- by doing this they add a bit to motivation to become my own boss or master.

Just problem is that once the things go better, I forget that there can be bad and do much to trade.

Oh - and kills the motivation strongly - the thing that there is no guarantee that I will succed. I am afraid that I might strugle and spend my life by strugling and not achieving things. Yea in programming I can achieve - really when I learn, I know I learned, I became better, more valuable. In trading - I really do not know if I learn the right way or not, am I wasting time. My friend says I will not make it. Kind of demotivating but on the other hand motivating because I want to prove him wrong. But yea, still sacrifising life to prove a friend being wrong and risk not succeeding and then when I am old he says - “I told you you will not succed, you had to listen to me and not waste time” sucks.

Oh btw one good thing today - even if I worked that much focused, and in the morning felt little bit headache, after the lunch no headache seems to be, feeling quite good :slight_smile:

I stopped adding tasks to todo list, unless they are some very interesting links to watch, read. Damn this todo list grows and grows, if I need to do that, I would be only working and nothing else :smiley:

THe exception is job tasks - those I need to do and not to forget to do , so when I get task descripbed by the boss, I create my own to do list , convenient to look and more details.

The to-do list is a one-off starting point. You never do it again. You convert it into a project plan/calendar which rolls on endlessly.

Never write a to-do list again.

but you wrote you stopped updating. And really your profits sound too good be true :slight_smile:

Meh. I ate a lot - macaroni and chicken. Plus a big snickers chocolate. Now low on energy, probalby because of lot of work for digesting.

And seeing reminder to calculate the bills for the tenant. It is most annoying since its the first invoice to tenant, he started living this month. So need to calculate part of month bills. So much time waste. Considering even paying all myself maybe is better strategy to save time becaue if I spend like hour calculating cents, then maybe I earn more in that 1 hour by doing my programming job.

I know I can have a company to manage my tenants which would cost 10 % of then monthly rent, which would be 35 eur per month. But then if you pay for various things, how much profit leave to you. On the other hand - this would make it more passive income plus when I have job , I want the least of hassles especially those which make me little profit.

On the other hand - I have 36 hour work week. I should be able to administer my self.

Oh and damn for another flat I need to do something with the doors. Not even sure how to best handle the situation. When doors are being closed, they touch the ground. So not sure if it is damanging them a lot or is it not a big deal, just small inconvenience for the tenants to need more power to close them.
Tenant said they have some relative who is a builder and could check this. Those tenants are very good - like dream tenants, its like 5th year, they do not give me problem, they make small fixes if needed. They did not ask the money for the doors fix.

But I am thinking about raising the rent, havent raised for 2 years. But now if I raise from 360 to 370, it feels weird to expect them to fix doors by themsevels. Maybe I should raise but offer them to pay for doors fix. Then I earn extra ~100 per year. But not sure how much doors fix would cost. hoping less than 100. But if I do not raise, then next year if I would raise by 20 it would like way bigger. I really want to save those tenants, probaly could be ok to not even raise just for the time they save to me by not causing problems. But really if they would want another flat, market praices are higher, I think for this I would get at least 400, or maybe even 450 especially if renting to foreigner. But those foreigners are probably most often not clean, from poor countries, attract cockroaches, etc, at least I had such one.

Maybe I could go for a walk since walking is usual, I have 4000+ steps today, some say need 10k steps per day, so good excuse to not work :smiley: and maybe I would become less sleepy.

Oh and btw I remember like at 2020 I guess when I first time rented a flat, left the tenant in my flat, and thought - now I am a businessman, a boss, not like my friend. But even when my friend as was eraning more at his job than me at job+rent :smiley: but I am a boss, ahead of him :smiley:

On the other hand - not much intelligence is needed to rent probably. Mostly its need to like to communicated and deal with tenants and service man and capital. So might be looking that it is no as cool to be a landlord. ANd when I hate dealing with people, I make my life less fun. Only fun thing is that I have some safety.

Came back from a 45 min walk. But spent like 30 minutes till I went to walk. Not understanding how, time went so fast. Maybe it was on podcast app. Maybe during this time I searched for motivational podcast on castbox. The found one, then got annoyed by not finding how to add it to favourites, had to google for that and wrote complaint in the castbox telegram channel. So annoying such a simple feature - everytime I want to add a podcast to favorites, I cannot find how without googling. But still did I spend 30 minutes on that? SHould not have been, not sure. Maybe still thinking should I walk or should I not and walking in my room back and forth. So at least some useful stuff even walking back and forth in the room :smiley:

The motivational podcast sounded good - I listened one episode - the latest one. I cannot post link here. If you are interested , search for podcast “Daily Boost Motivation and Coaching
Daily Boost Motivation and Coaching” , episode: “Old School Productivity Rules That Actually Work”

Now about energy - really when walking it felt like belly has a lot of work, it made me feel like I want to lean forward because it was harder to walk. So the mistake - overeating :smiley:
The thing why I ate more is because that past few months I have lost bit of weight, at some poitn my home scales howed like 64 but noticed when I go to gym, the scales there shows 2 kg more.
Now my home scale show about 70. It is easy to get weight, much harder it is to loose. I am 185 cm tall. Still not much weight but on the other hand - I should not just gain fat on my belly. I should eat food which helps growing muscles. But ok, its temporary.

Ok, I guess now till 10 PM I should do something productive. Actually still after starting a day at 7:30, worked 7 hours 15 mins, I did not do that much after that.

Yea, listened to trading podcast while walking, its better than nothing, but listening alone will not make me a independent boss to myself. I need to work, I have listened tons of theory already.

Ok maybe time to analyse what happened with my time:

work 7:35 even when to my boss I clocked 7:15 but I missed somewhere thsoe 20 minutes.
Analysis where time went : 30m but in progrress
Time before walk, podcast stuf: 30m
Cooking dinner, eating writing here: 1h 15m
Shower, breakfast: 45m
Lunch, walking: 1h 30m
Short nap and comedy listening while nap: 15m
Searching girls: 15m
This forum, reading motivation videos topic: 35m
Walking: 45m
Other light sports: 25m

Helping father installing smart id app remotely (they paid me but this money does not give me value): 1h 35m
Fun waste of time: 5m

This preparing for walk 30 mins is annoying but kind of useful - found new podcast for motivation, maybe I should listen it daily and maybe it will make me more doing things. I was usually sceptical about those motivation speeches. One one hand - I do not want to be a workaholic. But kind of till I get out of this slavery, I have to be. But problem might be I will get so used to be a workaholic that once I achieve independence, I will feel bad for not working. My dream earlier was to work half day and another half day play games.

This helping father today was a mistake. I have my things to do with rent. Could help maybe on weekend. I thought it will be faster but damn they are doing things slowly. If I had the phone in my hand, I would do much faster.

Otherwise lot of useful things but they were taking tons of time. And no it is 11:40 PM, I will go to sleep at 00:00 damn it. I hate that, I hate that!!!

Btw comedy was good, and helped probalby to fight light headache. So lesson is - good comedy maybe is good investment for productivity. THe problem is that there is shitload of bad comedy wasting our time and not making us laugh and they damn think they are funny. But key is to find good comedian.. It was lithuanian one ,so nobody here probably will understand even if I tell - he is Justinas Jankevicius.

Kind of movement still takes lot of time but still movement is useful for me. This damn help to father on my tight schedule is most annoying.

Actually all the strugle to finish work early went uselessly. If I had finished work 1.5 later and not helping my father, that would have been same effect. And I need so much will power to not procrastinate and just wasted my time on other little benefit thing :frowning:

That kind of explain sometimes when I discuss some of my problems with other people and them not having time to talk with me - they also probably want to do lot of useful things. My thinking was - hey how can you not have time, maybe you are just trying to do too much. After work everybody should have time for discussions. But yea, then you end up like me - not achieving things.

Total logged time 16 hours today.

Well, it is true though. Literally did a LIVE login for all to see.
As for updates, I still update it on Youtube.
Not trying to be rude, but if you did actually took a look, you won’t be making those statements.

PS: If you found the last BP update to be “too good to be true”, the account now stands at $20k-yes, $1k to $20k in 2 months.

Cheers and good luck.

You mean looking at your thread? I took a look at your thread and seeing those huge profits made me think like this. If you are doing so well in reality without making huge bets which could blow up your account then I am really surprised.

Thanks.

Hi hi,

So yesterday managed to go to bed 00:20 AM, but 00:50 was still not sleeping. I was angry probably at myself, it feels like I want to be angry at my parents for wasting my time but they were not forcing me, they just mentioned that they have problem and I though I could try quickly help. It is my fault.

Also woke up at night 5 AM to pee, and then sleep was not like deep I think. When the alarm clock rang, I thought maybe I need to sleep more. I set extra halh hour but did not wait till clock rings again and somehow woke up surprisingly, 9:10 I was out of bed.

9:40 started work. Did not eat breakfast, just ising my iron and other medication, cleaning teeth but somehow that half hours still passed so fast.

Luch with walk took 1h 15m, which is quite fast.

Finished work day 18:45, worked about 7h 30m.

Really was not sleep, nor tired during the day, really surprised when having in mind my broken sleep schedule, not deep sleep after peeing. At work was also focused, solved some problems. Still there are many tasks to finish till the week ends but it is moving so maybe will manage to do that and make boss happy.

So now will eat, and not sure, maybe need to study for programming and or read book the six pillars of self esteem.

I feel like I want walking. But maybe first do boring stuff. Oh just remembered even when listened one trader - need to do the boring stuff to learn trading. It is exciting often to place a trade and watch it moving especially to the profit. But that alone does not make me a profitable trader as I noticed.

Actually if I study and focus at work with such discipline, I could become better programmer and maybe that would kill my motivation to be a trader. But now I need to be good programmer while it is my main income and I want to have those good conditions like 36 hour work week, remote job.

Actually I remember how my father used to work - when I used to go to his work, I see him chatting with colleagues, having fun. Maybe of course I did not see his all hard work, because he was not doing that in front of my eyes. But also I remember he used to get back home to work on his business. I imagine that is a good job. Only that his salary was shitty. My salary is high, I have hard time to even find low salary job so they would not force so much. Like I ask x, then I doubt should I take this job because I feel it might demand a lot. Requirer says for easier decision - he even raises the salary. Ok, I took the job but with raised salary, the expectation might be even higher. But ok, so far nearly 2 months survived. And there are days like today - even low stress. If stress is low, then I like programming. And if everywhere was low stress, I would probably not even care about being my own boss.

Now some might say - trading is even more stressful. I hope not - if you set the low enough expectations. I even heard some traders saying it is low stress activity. I guess it depends on your strategy and how big earnings you force y ourself to make.

Again insave time consumption: thinking should I go to festival and should I rent place for sleep which costs 36-37 eur for night, 26 km from the festival. That took me today 40 minutes! Such an unimportant thing takes so much time.

How could I solve this? Just not think about price and rent? But the festival is outside , can be rain and free cancelation is tomorrow. Damn those booking are costly. And plus if I go, then my group of friends will take a friend who is not fun to party with, that adds confusion - should I go or not. But on the other hand spending 40 minutes - I could earn a lot back and make boss happy for working more.
But really summer is going to an end. The fun dj will play who charges usually even more than the cost of the rent. But that day in some town festiwal it will be free. So kind of make sense to pay for rent.
Damn really how are those prices so high for the rent. But if you rent yourself - they look so low :smiley: Like even 37 eur but with all the management and making it look very clean, so cleaning yourself or hiring trusted clearner damn, might seem not huge.
On the other hand I want just bed, silence, not too much heat, no cockroaches. I do not need all look very nice. But I cannot see such low demand on the market in this place. I would prefer paying 20 eur but having just few basic things.

On the other hand without counting my investments, just pure salary makes me 30 eur per hour. After taxes not sure forgot the number. But aproximately I guess I can earn the sum for night stay in like 2 hours. Yea of course travel itself will cost, eating at the place will cost unless I make all by myself. And then also time will cost which will delay becoming super awesome boss to myself. But there will be one very good friend likely in this festival also, so socialising with her is an investment. Only not much can socialise when she brings her boyfriend who is not fun to talk with at all anymore.

Yea, lot of time is used by thinking should I do this or not do this.

I think need to somehow find an algorithm how much time to decidacte on decitions which cost x amount. If not knowing and costs not much, maybe do a coinflip?

So lets see how end of day looks:

what could be things to improve:

  • spending 40m for not highly useful travel planning to festival

Not sure

  • 50m analysing where time was spent - probably that is useful but costs a lot if I analyse that much every day. Probably at some point I should learn to not waste. But maybe if I do not write down and review, I will waste it?
  • less movement? Heard that 30 mins are enough per day of walking. But that does not collect 10k steps. But at the same time - maybe movement keeps me being able to focus that much. Also when I am moving, if not tired, I listed to useful podcasts or book. Today spent on walkking about 1h 45 mins. Really earlier I did not walk that much, there even used to be days when I do not walk at all. 1h 45 mins is lot of time in a day where could learn a lot. But yea, if not learning, if no focus and browsing facebook, then will not learn anyway.

Overall really productive day. And very important - I dot feel that much exhausted.

Asked chat gpt:

That’s a really good observation — you’ve noticed walking both helps you focus and eats up a lot of time. The key is to figure out whether the extra time beyond 30–45 minutes is giving you a big return, or if it’s tipping into “nice but inefficient.”

Some things to weigh:

1. Health side:

  • For physical health, 30 minutes brisk walking daily is already enough for cardiovascular and metabolic benefits.
  • Anything more is a bonus — good for mood, stress relief, creativity — but not a strict necessity.

2. Mental side:

  • Walking helps clear your head and makes learning stick better, especially if you’re listening to something.
  • But if walking pushes out dedicated study/work time, the benefit may not justify the trade-off.

3. Time efficiency tricks:

  • Cap routine walks at ~30–45 mins daily for health, then treat any extra as “optional bonus walks” (weekend, calls, podcasts).
  • Layer activities: sometimes instead of listening to podcasts, do active recall (e.g., pause and try to explain the idea in your own words while walking). That makes it closer to “real studying.”
  • Shift intensity: a shorter but faster walk (or light jog) might give you the same physical effect in half the time.
  • Mix with work/study: if you have calls or need to brainstorm ideas, do them while walking.

So maybe the answer isn’t to cut walking entirely but to set a “core dose” (30–40 min), then ask yourself each day: Do I want the extra 30–60 min walk today, knowing it means less desk study?

:point_right: A practical test: try one week with a 40-min cap, see if you actually use the freed time for focused study. If you don’t, then the walking might not be the real time thief — it might just feel like it.

Do you want me to help you build a time budget experiment (like a 1-week schedule with walking capped) so you can see if reducing walk time actually translates into more study time?


Now thingking- clocked about 13 hours besides sleep. If I had woke up at 7 AM, I would still have 2 more hours. Like if sleep is 8 hours, we can clockc 16 hours for other stuff. The probekme is that practically yesterday I went to sleep like at 1AM, even when I really layed in bed 00:20 but could not fall asleep. Woke up late. So even after that much walking, and doing useful stuff, I would have still 2 hours for study or even fun. So now not sure if I will fall asleep but need to try and then get up earlier. Try each day to start work at 8 AM or earlier. This day less time in a day becauyse of yesterday.

One more update before sleep: now is 11:41 pm. I noticed I spent 38 minutes for preparing to sleep. DUring that - ate banana and apple because felt bit hundgry and 5 minutes fingers excercize. Then few minutes cleaning teeth. Somee peeing. Where else? That does not add up to 38 minutes. I hate it when so much time consumed when not even knowing where it went.
