Absent-minded

My attention span has always been short, it's hard for me to concentrate on one task. But lately I feel like it's starting to hinder my language study.
I only did like 10 minutes of Gaelic yesterday before I jumped back to Italian. I also couldn't sit through even one episode of Italian podcast. I feel like the fact that I was still feeling a bit unwell was also making me hard to focus on the task on hand. It's just a bit frustrating now, and I'm losing directions.
This week I've got a few work training sessions (basically it's 9 to 5), hopefully everything goes well and that I still have enough energy to study Japanese at night since I haven't been doing much Japanese lately.
Cheers! x

I'd use the plural here. I don't think I've ever seen or heard "language study" (might be a regional thing though)

I only did likeabout 10 minutes of Gaelic yesterday before I jumped back to Italian. I only did about 10 minutes of Gaelic yesterday before I jumped back to Italian.

"Like" in that usage is only appropriate in speech or very casual writing.

I feel like placing "even" as I have above gives more emphasis. Including "also" and "even" makes the sentence sound weaker to me.
