Ha! Turned my most dreaded call into an email, and it's better that way, too. I'm about out of gas for the day. Going to do some brainless stuff till it's time to go, I think.

Phone calls are stressful for me, and I've got some anxiety going on (I think from my AD). So I'm going to get up, stretch, go wash some grapes for a snack, set the timer for 15 min, and plow through them. I have a bit of good chocolate for a reward when I finish.

Okay, I'm having kind of a freakout. There's just too much going on - I need to take, oh, a day or so and put everything into a big to-do list, a la Getting Things Done. For now I'm just going to keep stuff here.

pro's CI - 9:35am
Done:
- Breakfast dishes washed.
- Dressed.
- Lunch packed.
- Water filter bottled refilled.
- Pills for day laid out.
- Took pills (dose 1 of 3).
I'll take down the recycling on my way out.
I'll get to work around 10am. Not great, but acceptable (many arrive at 10am where I work). I'd still like to arrive earlier so I can leave earlier.

9:15am CI for Lark(2:40pm)(10:05pm)
Hi everyone. My elderly relative who's been ill is rather bad, so I don't want to commit myself to major goals today--especially specific ones to clients, so I'm making today "catch up" day.
Ta da:
(X)morning routine
(X)spiritual time
(X)clean house
(X)visit nursing home
(X)do laundry
(X)work on current work projects only
(X)check in here
pro's CI - 8:25am
I'm finished with breakfast. If I were on-time, I'd be leaving for work now, but I'm not dressed. If I try to exercise, I'll be even later than I already am. I know it's a slippery slope to skip exercise, but I have to solve one problem at a time. First I need to get to work on time. Once I can do that reliably, I can add morning activities. Maybe I can exercise this evening (unlikely).
Now I need to lay out my pills for the day, take dose 1 (of 3), wash the breakfast dishes, and shower and dress.

N's Bookend
Okay, got some kind of bad/shocking news. Not that it's an excuse not to work, but I did have an hour-long phone appointment, which was good.
I still have 2 more hours of dissertation work, however. I don't think I'm going to do it. I can't read right now.
Therefore, to do:
call someone from program and explain what's going on.
go to a meeting?
sounds like a good plan.
and a good way to take care of yourself.
Nan - subject lines for check-ins
Nan - please put your username in the subject line of your check-ins - e.g. "Nan's bookend" or ideally, "Nan's bookend, 7:30am". If everyone used just "Bookend", no one would be able to find their previous posts in the topic list.
Thanks.

pro's CI - 7am
I didn't do stuff last night, so I have to do it this morning - like starting today's day thread, for example. Also washing the dishes. Since I have some housework to do and I want to get to work sort of on time, I can't fool around surfing and doing email this morning.

Okay
I see your point. Sorry about that and thanks for pointing it out.
