Dear Friends,
Today’s daily prompt is
Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?
I don’t give myself time to enjoy the things I used to. I used to love gaming in a big way, but I never seem to give myself the time to do it anymore, mostly because I haven’t given myself the right amount of time to do everything else.
It’s quite sad that I’ve had the “Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition” on my computer for a while and still haven’t played any of it even though GTA Vice City is one of my favourite games. I had it on PS2, not PC, back in the day. I still have my PS2; I just don’t have a TV, though, to plug it into, which is a shame because I have so many PS2 games as well.
I’m also thinking of going to learn how to crochet at the local college as it’s something I’ve always wanted to do. I can do kind of a basic stitch which I don’t even think I’m doing right. But I do find it relaxing.
These are what I consider playtime, although I’m not sure, as an older person, how you’d define playtime. I like doing things that make me concentrate on one thing. It helps me not think about the anxiety too much, and yes, doing these things can help you mentally. It’s kind of like, dare I say, a mindfulness approach to things but better because you’re doing something that you enjoy.
I just need to get into a routine with life. I’m not very good with routines or making notes of things that need to be done. Whenever I make lists, I tend not to follow them. I think it’s time to change that, though, as I have plans and goals.
Hmm 2025 is going to be interesting
Until the next time
See ya!
