I haven’t been on Twitter all that long. I had started a long time ago, but I decided to delete it when I started looking for a job. I wasn’t very active on it, anyway. But I got back on again during the Trump impeachment hearings to see what everyone else was saying, and it made me feel more connected to the world since I’m usually at home during the day by myself.

So now I go on there for no reason. I open up the laptop and immediately go there “for a few minutes” while I’m “getting ready” to do some serious work. An hour or 2 later I curse at myself and get up to wash the dishes. I come back to the computer to do some real work and I notice a story I hadn’t seen, so I go back on Twitter. Before I know it, I would have to pick up my kid from school.

Now that we’re sheltering in place, I’ve been able to get more things done with my family. But now that things have calmed down, I am ready to get back to work on my side project. But now I’m back to the same problem. I read some stories about #coronavirus, and I’m back on Twitter again. And I’m not getting my work done.

Anyone else have this problem? Any advice?
