Hi!!

Thanks REXROTH for starting us!! Sending loving prayers to all, and JO, AGNUS, HUMA, LENNON, VIC & ELINA!!.

Had a breakthrough yesterday, took a day off without guilt, punishment or too much self-pity!! Really grateful for that!! Also WORKED OUT YESTERDAY!! YAY!!!

I awoke this morning to feeling really bad about an interveiw I had yesterday. It went "naturally" amazing and I was almost sure of getting it. This morning I felt like someone maybe my old boss or our landlords (because these attorney's know them) may have said bad things about me. There are lots they could say. Don't know if this is truth or not, but t makes me feel horrible that they think badly about me now.

I'm panicked about no money coming in on my part. I have an interview tomorow with an agency that might be able to help, but if we do get help it would take about a month for things to happen.

Today is a work day, and I will cut out about 5:00/5:30, have so much to do and am in overwhelm.

Will start ez:
-been sending out resumes
-took girl for a.m. walk
-went to a meeting
-work on step work & finding a DA sponsor
-finish project for ML
-clean

Sending encouragement and minute by minute breakthroughs to you all!!

Agnus checking in 950am

I was not very productive yesterday on my to-do list but actually got a few other things done that needed effort. But it was not stellar.  On the up side, I have a simpler time with today's to-do list b/c it looks a lot like yesterday's!  Only now, more crowded...

  • personal and prayer planning
  • reduce Inbox to <10 emails - this is a huge procrastination hook for me b/c many items in those backlogged emails require ACTION that I am resisting. I will chat through each email where that is the case today, and keep moving.
  • 11:30 read SS/MM to prep for 12n call
  • 12n call re SS/MM
  • review proj brg status/promises made and sched accordingly
  • 3:30 granddaughter visit - walk the dog, take her to soccer practice
  • 5:30 back home, microburst the paper piles on my desk a little before dinner

    I think that that's all I have time for today, and maybe even too much. I am getting anxious about the pile of uncategorized receipts and unchecked mail again, but don't know when I can get to them without another late night and I feel too tired for that now.  Seems that lately I'm experiencing consequences from my poor estimation of how long things take. (God, please help me!)

Show up (done) Practice being mindful whenever I can.After Looking at my "thoughts" helped me keep the focus on "me" and "present",it was helpful to use Angus "substitution method" of replacing healthy thoughts and prayers.

Today is my son's 16th b day, I can't believe it!! Looking at photos this morning. My thoughts are sadness at how fast he grew up. Using mindfulness, I will replace them with gratitude and hapiness for him.

Ah (((((Vic))))))

Wishing your son much happiness on his birthday!!
