i have a cold brew carafe with a filter. 6 glasses or so. i brew for two days. not a concentrate
The mr coffee is for the brewing day
I have two such carafes, but I dislike the reusable filters which is why I use the bags. I bought a second so I can start brewing the next batch before the prior batch is finished.
That said, I donāt always accomplish this. I have Starbucks Via and I tried the Cold Brew coffee concentrate as well as backupsā¦ or Dunkinā. Iām not sure about the Cold Crew concentrateā¦ only used it once but I will try it again in the morning as I am again behind in brewing.
Unfortunately, social norms dictate that I wear pants.
And a shirt at NAās house.

Hey! You know, we left this England place 'cause it was bogus; so if we donāt get some cool rules ourselves - pronto - weāll just be bogus too!

I know Iām lazy, but sometimes it surprises me how productive other peopleās ādowntimeā sounds. Clean out the garage or reorganize random shit? F that, Iām going to doom scroll Reddit, watch TV, or play games on my phone for 3 hours.

Is it really only Monday? Fuck, I probably shouldnāt be pouring this (next) drink. But I am.
Whereās that drunk thoughts thread? I might be ready for that one.
My favorite way to spend 3.5 hours is take a nap. On weekends, I frequently get absolutely nothing done. I might not even get dressed.

Ah yes, I have nowhere near your struggles. I make plenty of poor choices but I rarely feel that pull that basically prevents you from making the choice you know you should. For me it is (in my head at least) a fully conscious decision to make a choice to choose short term utility over long term utility. One of the reasons I dislike certain economic theories.

You are an enabler. Please donāt choose that in your personal life, especially given your history. But thanks!
Iām working on this. Right now Iām really busy so my downtime is also scrolling Reddit, or re-watching Letterkenny.
My ideal state is more like: work a reasonable schedule, donāt have 38 home projects lined up. When Iāve been able to get there I actually do find joy in ātinkering,ā more or less. Which includes cleaning out the garage for a bit, or building something without a hard deadline. I donāt mind being productive when there isnāt all the stress.
Wait, elaborate,
Iām pretty much always on. Social media for me is just quick breaks while Iām working, not something Iām inclined to spend a half a day on. Downtime is either āgetting stuff doneā or actively doing a hobby type activity. I donāt lounge around.
Except once a year when weāre on vacation. Then I actively do nothing but read and nap when I choose. And when Iām doing that, I donāt do anything else. Iām reading, Iām vegetating, do not disturb.
LOL. I understand the first sentence. I have no idea what I meant by the 2nd sentence. Iām sure I thought it was profound though.

Someone was having a good night. Maybe not so good of a morning?

Meh. The morning was a bit slow but not too bad.
I have decided to have no more than one home project going at a time. And by āhome projectā I mean the deep cleaning/organizing type. No major renovations for me, although I like reading about them on the GOA.
I have this dream where I come home and everything is just done. So gradually, as I feel like taking the time, Iām doing the things.
Then there are nights like last night where I cook dinner and then zone out with some screen time.
