Vic 12/4

Show up (done) Grateful for not shutting down last night in mist of confusion and got out for my walk, used tools, reached out. So got up my xmas decorations and walk my nightly clean sink/kitchen discipline intact.

Working on school work with son. Humble enough to make a "joint plan" we both have adhd and work well together because we can navigate around our blocks becuase we recognize our blocks in each other. my problem is to start and stay on task so I can explain. So that is my plan now.

Thanks for being here together doing what works.

Stayed home yesterday and worked on my laptop without Internet connection.  It was an unusually productive day!  So today I need to stay off this website and out of the chatbox, unless I need to do bursts with others.  Signing off…

 (Love that encouragement, Rexroth:  Let's get it done.)

End o' the Scribbler's Week

I did pretty well yesterday, especially getting all the family things done in the afternoon and evening. I din't rewrite one story which I needed to. I'll try to do that this morning.  I hate to devote so much time to a bike ride in the afternoon, but I want to get some exercise. Perhaps I'll work later this evening, or even on the weekend, to catch up. Anyway, doing okay.

friday for tracy-la

Good day:

Checking in today. Basics: checking calendar; gratitudes; affirmation; prayer; reading; plan to plan. Done.

Got a lot unpacked but still living in boxes and having to focus on work amid the chaos. Need to work from home while I wait for cable/internet installer. Hope they show.

Will edit this later as I complete a 1/2 hour block of work. For some reason, listing the tasks is not as important for me as showing that I am working. I have a separate list of my top 3 tasks. Just starting and staying on task helps me get it done and finish it.

Will check in later and use chatbox as needed. Have a good day everyone.

All my best to everyone here,

tracy-la

Kind of annoyed with myself...I stayed up really late last night, then slept in this morning and now I feel totally thrown off.

OK, well I can pull myself together today. I need to:
*Check on expts
*Finish document (this is taking so long!!!) (almost done!) (done!! yay!)
*Finish DNA extraction and start PCRs (making progress!)
*Get panoramic image of 2 sections(probably not gonna happen today)

Lower priority:
*email RH, CE, card (some of these might happen...)
*Fingure out boundary marker and order if needed
*2 papers
*Deal w/ email

*Est taxes (might happen...)

Scheduled: seminar 12:15-1:15, youth group 5-9

OK, feeling really stuck but I can microburst the document and then go check on expts.

Doing better today. Woke up more mentally refreshed after spending an evening in a planned and very fun way in the fellowship of some fun creative women. Something I don't do nearly enough of.

I have a big project due on Monday and I know that I'll probably have to work over the weekend to get it done, but I'm going to grind through using 15 minute microbursts to accomplish what I can on the task.  

First I have some small, immediate tasks to clear out first:

-billing

-call about ck

-call about s placement

-call about planning p

-Start cycles of work on Monday's project.

My reward today will be to call and order the item that I have been saving up for and that is a major purchase I have wanted for a very long time.  That should give me incentive!

"Either actions will conquer fears or fears will conquer actions." - Orrin Woodward

 

Setting aside all fears today and just taking action...  Best to all...

Journey 8 am

Good morning . . .still recovering from that minor surgery on Wednesday.   I thought I would be all well by now, I guess I ain't as young as I used to be eh?  Anyway, I wimped out and called in another 'work from home' day today.  

I was a chatbox dropout yesterday, I faded as the afternoon went on but I got one of my big tedious tasks completed, by working on it in 15 minutes chunks and taking big breaks between the chunks.  I'll work in the chatbox again today, try to stick with it and get done a little earlier today.   I ended up working until 8 pm last night because I was determined to finish this one thing, but of course I wasn't working the whole time, I was resting a lot between work tasks.

I'm going to take a shower, make a todo list, eat something, and then work in the chatbox.  It's still uncomfortable to eat and I'm sure that's one reason my recovery is being delayed, I am def not eating right.   

OK I'm rambling . . . laters!
