Last week I got all my housework items done that I intended to and even an extra item and realized that I was bored. This is a really bad thing for more. I have several things that I enjoy doing and for me to be bored means I didn’t have anything at that moment that offered much challenge or in depth involvement.<\/p>\n

I don’t know about you but sometimes I like to have something to do that is going to have me so engrossed that I completely forget about time. I also like to build or make things or fix things or renovate things. I live in an apartment. That means the only real renovation would be to my stuff and most of that doesn’t need it right now. I do have a dresser I could refinish again, however; that’s more mess than anything. I could play World of Warcraft and that would suck up some time. But that is really all it would do is suck up some time. I needed something to do that doesn’t feel like just killing time. So what to do.\n<\/p>\n

I started out getting some Lego Bionicels. They’re cool and all but they only took a few minutes to put together. How very disappointing and unsatisfying. I have a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle and I bought a 2000 piece puzzle. I’ve also bought a model airplane to put together. I got one of the old style that is made of balsa wood and you cover it in tissue paper. I remember helping my dad put together one of these when I was a child. Really a child, like about age 5 or so.<\/p>\n

Last night and this morning I worked the 1000 piece puzzle. I’ve got other things I need to do today so I probably won’t be starting the other jigsaw puzzle this weekend. What I think I want to do is to work up to doing some of the cool projects I’ve seen on the website HacknMod (http:\/\/www.hacknmod.com). I saw that they have a project to make an off-road skateboard that is electric which looks really cool. I also saw a project that is a create your own segway type of vehicle. This really excites me. I’ve ridden a real Segway and think they are just a blast. How cool would it be to build one of your own.<\/p>\n

Currently what I’m planning on doing is working on progressively more challenging build projects and working my way up to building my own segway type of vehicle. If I stay interested and on track I might be starting on it in about two years. If I don’t stay on track it will be longer or I will have lost interest or gotten distracted by something else that looked more entertaining at the time. That happens.<\/p>\n

Now I’m off to do some housework type stuff and to work on cleaning off a computer that I’m getting rid of.<\/p>\n

Cheers<\/p>\n
