So, did you have a productive weekend? You know, it's Monday. We must reflect. Did we have a productive weekend?
I guess we'll talk about that. So, how was your weekend? Did you have a productive weekend? I follow this guy.
I'm not going to mention his name. But he always talks about having a productive weekend. You want to make your weekend count so that your week is going to be great. I had kind of a productive weekend.
Let's talk about it a little bit. All right. And by the way, I went on to Meta AI and I typed in, give me seven examples of a productive weekend. And I'm not going to read all of them to you.
But learning a new skill. Well, I did that this weekend. I actually did that. I went to a seminar on AI.
Speaking of Meta AI, I went to a seminar on AI when it comes to self-publishing. It was quite good. It was better than I thought it would be. As a matter of fact, I thought it was going to be pretty good.
Because the guy that was teaching, his name is Tony Rockcliffe. He knows his stuff. So, that was productive. That was Saturday.
And when I came back home from that, I took copious notes. I take copious notes. What does that even mean? I'm going to have to look that up.
I don't know what copious means. But anyway, I think I do. Anyway, I took these notes and I came home and I immediately started to implement things. And I'm working on a series of gardening books.
And I needed something that AI could give me. I have a bunch of pictures that I've taken of different plants and different grasses and things like that. I needed them turned into what looked like a black and white line pencil drawing type thing. And I said, is there an AI that does that?
And he said, yes, there is. And he popped it up on the screen. And I looked at it and I wrote it down. And then I came home and I was going to try it.
And all right, it works kind of sort of, but not the way I need it to work. So, I'm kind of back to the drawing board on that. Or maybe I just need to learn how to tweak this a little bit. I don't know.
All right, the next thing it says here is organizing and decluttering. That's what I did today. Today, I went up into the kitchen and I did every dish in the kitchen. Everyone put them, most of them away.
The only ones that haven't been put away yet are still drawing. But they'll get put away when I'm done with this. I'm going to go put all those away. So, that'll be good.
And I have this ninja foodie grill. And it needed a deep, deep, deep cleaning. And I've been challenged doing a deep, deep, deep cleaning on my ninja foodie grill. I love my ninja foodie grill.
It makes the best steaks in the world. But I've not, it needs a deep cleaning. And I've been trying and everything. Oh, and then the other thing.
I went on the TikTok shop a week or so ago. And I bought one of those brushes. One of those spin brushes. If you've been on TikTok, if you know, you know.
Okay, they've been all over TikTok. So, I watched a bunch of reviews. And they talk about this one being best. And I watched it on several different videos.
And I bought it, pulled trigger. It showed up here yesterday. And I put it together this morning. I charged it.
And I tried using it on my ninja foodie grill. Didn't get great success. But that's not saying that the spin brush is bad. It's saying that the ninja foodie grill was really greased up and yucky and bleh.
So, you know, that's a little distracting. But, you know, I'm looking forward to this thing. It doesn't seem to hold a charge long. That's a little concerning to me.
But the next thing I'm going to do is I'm going to hit my shower with it. I'm going to de-clean the shower. I was going to do all of that today. But after spending a half a day being productive, I spent the rest of the day doing not a damn thing.
Not a damn thing. I sat on my ass. And I watched. Oh, gosh.
I caught up on watching terrible television shows that, you know, that are all new. But I never liked them. But I just, you know, SWAT is one of them. I had the guy that used to be on that other show.
And, yeah, I don't know. I watched that. It was okay. But, you know, that was three hours.
There was three hours right there. You know, just right through it. So that was totally unproductive. And then I watched some TikTok videos.
And then I just did nothing. I just sort of sat around. Wandered back into the kitchen to do more work in the kitchen and decided, no, I'm just going to go lay around. Is that okay?
And a very productive Saturday, a halfway productive Sunday. I did another. They talk about meal prep and planning. No, I didn't do any of that.
Creative projects. Well, yes, the thing I did was the AI working on the books type thing was good. Productive errands. I did not leave the house today.
Yesterday I did. And then here's the one that I always do that I didn't do today that I probably should do before the day is done. And that is goal setting and planning. They do those sort of things.
So is it important to have a productive weekend? I don't know. Maybe it is. Or maybe sometimes you just want to goof off.
You know what I want to do next weekend? I want to, like, go away. Maybe rent a condo someplace by the water. Or someplace that has a really nice pool.
And just go and plop my butt in the water. Or in the pool. And just relax. That's looking good for next weekend as far as I can see.
You know? And the other thing that I'm going to stop doing, this is my latest goal. I edit these out as much as I can in the podcast, but sometimes I just don't get around to it. And that is me saying, you know.
I've got to stop saying, you know. You know? I know. I do think.
See you, man.
