Working on the side

I have done less work recently, uni wise and writing wise recently. I’ve had more time to do what I want to do I guess. I like to be busy, but recently I had someone to make time for… Now I don’t again so I’m wondering whether to keep things at the same pace or to pick more stuff back up again. Something tells me to stay at the same pace but at the same time I know I’ll dwell on stuff and be worse off. I don’t know what to do. So much for having a ‘strategic mind’!
