I have loved writing lately, and think of it as a treat, a craft, a comfort. But it is 12:38 a.m. and I should probably rethink my writing time.
When I stay up late like this, I fuel myself with food--grabby, unhealthy foods.
I really would like to figure this out.
Good night.

Yes, for me, from 8 -10 every night is the big danger time. Many people set a practice of “closing the kitchen” after dinner, no one in the family goes in there. Doesn’t work for me, because it’s just me, and I break my own rules all the time. The worst is I’m not being creative, I’m probably doomscrolling, and eating while doing it. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteHi Nan. This nighttime eating is really eating at me. For me, it is compulsive and very hard to stop. But tonight, as you and God are my witnesses, I’m heading up the stairs with a glass of ice water.
DeleteMy friend also advises me to “close the kitchen” and I try to, yet often find myself stress eating. I’m planning to go to bed earlier. If I can’t finish writing at a reasonable time, it will have to wait til the next morning.
The catch: Last night, after a busy day and evening, I looked forward to writing the Medium story in this post for my “treat.” But then I can’t stay up and do it without wanting to grab fuel.
Do you have a set bedtime? I’m sending hugs to you. Alice
