Hi Pro Buddies!

An end of the day "emergency" at work ((sigh)). After 45 minutes tending to the emergency ((sigh)), I still had to do the things I would have been easily finishing if emergency hadn't shown up ((sigh)). Also had a concern about if I was setting off the alarm by leaving after 6pm on Friday, but it looked like the custodian(s) were still there, so hopefully not. I also didn't hear any alarms or police sirens, so I think it was ok. Custodians car was still on-site, so if security system called in, he could probably tell them everything was ok.

Morning: gym, cardio, ab workout, stretching.

Work: spun some wheels this morning, but mid-morning and afternoon, got some deadline projects done.

Mid-day. Bought can of paint at store. I think I am pleased with the color chosen. It may be Sunday before I get to paint, but I am supplied!

Afternoon: a mixture of things getting done, looking ahead to a volunteer project, then emergency lady walks in.

5pm. Emergency lady left, so I did a quick check-list review. I think I have everything in place for the workshop tomorrow. After clocking out, did volunteer project. It did not go perfectly, but I did get it done. Came home. Wanted to waste money at a fast food place, but decided to have can of soup at home instead.

Next: 12-step meeting. Being still pre-occupied after emergency, I am too dazed to evaluate whether or not I need to go, so I will go anyway ;) I hope to drive safely.

10pm EST. Still dazed. Someone's sharing at the meeting made me feel fearful. I need to call my sponsor in another program, but can't find the phone list. I've got to get up early in the morning, so should probably just go to sleep now. Jeesh, what a night!

Have a great night, everyone! :)

Try to enjoy the process… progress not perfection!

Something fun before bedtime

A bit of a late start this morning, oh well...

My main task today is to get started on research project in new lab. I'm a little intimidated by this, but I know it's time to jump in. Today I'll spend at least 4 hrs in lab, but if I don't make much progress that's fine.

I also need to do a couple hour's work on EYL's project...I'd like to document how I got list of TFs, write an overview of the workflow and test out compiled code. 

Finally, I have student seminar 1-2, youth group 4:10-9:00 and bday party 9-11. 

Right now, I'm heading out to new lab, will work there 10-1. 

What a wonderful picture, CHickadee!  Thank you  :)

So, my butt still hurts, not quite as bad, but still annoying.  Everytime I go to bend or sit down I am reminded.      Somehow over the last couple of days the house turned inside out.  So where I would vastly prefer to creat a tada list instead of todo, today needs a todo list.  Here goes

ci 1230pm   got some things done for tada list, talked with my brother and his wife, talked to pharmicist about horrible tasting meds for ds...trying to find a really great calorie and daily value site, so for nothing...ah well

ci 545pm   mmm, what have I done... rebooted laundry, ran dishwasher, made and ate lunch.  Picked up ds from school - I was talking with a mom, looked over at ds who was standing by the van, and saw he was sobbing.  Asked what was wrong, thinking he slipped on the snow and fell...no, a boy who walked by him hit him in the cheek...my stomach dropped, I grabbed his hand to attempt to find this boy, of course that led nowhere.   That just burns me up, that he is being bullied, and he doesn't even really realize it.  He knows someone hit him, he doesn't know why, but when the pain subsides, he just goes on.  We went in to talk to his teacher, but really, without being able to identify the boy, what can one do??????  DH and I will talk to him this weekend about bullying, and apparently Const. Vicki came by and talked about bullying to the whole school during this past week....  *sigh*   ...came home from that and had to dig trenches in the snow to release water buildup around the base of the house...that took an hour.  I called dh, he went and bought some wine for me, we are having fish and chips for supper and then I am vegging on the couch.  Hope my weekend is better than this afternoon!!

unload dishwasher, load dishwasher, wipe counters

clean blue boxes, one at a time, let dry outside (sunny and 0)

bring folded laundry upstairs, make beds, gather laundry, start wash

grab garbage can, scoop up garbage from all areas from living room, dining room, rec room

clean top of fridge, sort items and place in their homes

neaten and organize kitchen closet

clean out and organize cupboard on top of fridge to prevent things from falling out

remember to eat when hungry, drink when thirsty, set timers, and take breaks!!

onward I go...  

I really need to actually do these "promises" to myself!  It is depressing at the end of the day to see this simple list, and see that I haven't done anything near to what I set out to do.  That is why I like the TADA list much better.   :)
