I'm in full-on avoidance mode. And I'm not sure why. Here's how I know; my list of projects:

  Taking guitar lessons (Fender Play)
  Taking bass lessons (Scott's Bass Lessons, Fretboard Accelerator course)
  Redesigning the roof of my workshop
  ... in SketchUp, which I am re-learning after a couple dormant years
  Rehabilitating my front lawn, with a mattocks and 5 yards of topsoil
  Building a retaining wall and patio in my back yard
  Resto-modding a motorcycle in my workshop
  Building plant stands for my wife's epic collection of potted plants
  Planting/maintaining fruit and veggie plants, plus ornamental trees
  Rewriting the first season of a TV series I was working on years ago
  Writing two new screenplays
  Working with my parents on major home renovation plans (their home)
  Planning the gutting and renovation of the entire downstairs in my home
  Working with a contractor on the design/building of our new back deck

  Collaborating with the fan clubs for the new MLR teams, to help them get set up and running
  Created and managing mailing list for my neighborhood
  Creating and managing a similar mailing list for my remote bandmates project
  Recording music with my remote band project
  Removing the old forced-air ducting in my house...
  ... so I can seal up those spaces and keep the heat in the rooms that need it
  Getting back on a strict Keto diet to lose weight (and yard work is helping, too!)
  Producing new electronic music in GarageBand
  Looking for a new job because I'm not convinced my company is going to avoid layoffs much longer
  Researching what I need to do with my long-term investments now the Fed has abdicated their base responsibilities to the market
  ...

Yeah, COVID.

Yeah, the world is on fire.

But ... maaaan ... I'm filling up my time to avoid something. No doubt about that.
