Edge's Closing CI
It's already tomorrow, so I'm going to wrap up and get some sleep. Won't write anything today, will focus on getting everything down on paper tomorrow. Sleep is good.
Night, Julie, and good night anyone else who's going to pop in here at some point "today".

Just to take stock of the things I did and need to do, lest I forget anything:
X Get B ginger root
X Call Doc (must call at 10PM)
- Translate and submit Ab Hrscps on NT
- DCS
- Write 10k words (I'll need plenty of caffeine to pull that one off)
X Take a pic of the weird plant for Jim before it wilts and send

We're celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow so I have most of the day free. I want to try to get a few things done today that I've wanted to get done for a long time.

Wanted to post earlier but then had to leave abruptly, so didn't get a chance to post my check in :-)
I remembered to get B the ginger root, and later tonight when I reach home I'll call Doc and wish her a happy birthday. So far my day is going relatively well.
Also, went to my new workplace and got a copy of my contract to read and sign later on.

Looks like everyone is busy with Thanksgiving today :-) Hope you're having fun, folks.
I came home early because I was starting to doze off at work and couldn't focus on what I was doing. Going to finish my left over work from home, which means tonight, because the deadline is 6AM tomorrow morning :p Fun fun fun.
Going to call Doc in a bit. I don't know why I dislike making phone calls.

Hi Edge
I wondered if anyone would be on today. I was glad to see someone was. As you can see from my post above we're doing Thanksgiving tomorrow, so I've got a free day with not too much planned. Good luck in meeting your deadline for tomorrow morning. I hope you have a nice evening and have some time to relax!
Julie
Thanksgiving
Thanks Julie :-) Going through some Steve Pavlina podcasts, actually, hehe, though I should be working now. There's one that I'd like to share with you guys, seems like it could be useful :-) Will put up a link in a bit.
I thought Thanksgiving was held on the fourth Thursday of November :? Isn't it supposed to be today?
Anyhoo, you have a good time tomorrow, and enjoy today's rest and relaxation :grin:

Thanksgiving
You're right, Thanksgiving is today. Both of my daughters are eating with their husbands' families today, so my husband and I are celebrating with them tomorrow. I was just reading some of Steve Pavlina's stuff last night too. I was re-reading the one about getting in the habit of getting up at 5 am every day. I haven't tried it yet, but it was interesting reading.
Getting up at 5AM
Heh, I tried it, except I cheated a bit and it didn't work for me :-p. Wasn't getting much sleep at night because I'd end up working late or chatting with friends, so I couldn't bring myself to eschew what few extra hours of sleep I could get. I'll be trying it again once I settle into my new job, which is much less demanding.
It's a very good habit to cultivate, so I'd highly recommend it. The few days that I did get up early, I was able to achieve *much* more than I usually do, and I also got to spend more time with my family, who I did not see much because of my long work hours.

hooray for getting up at 5 am
Learning to get up early is one of the best things I've ever done for myself - I get up, get out of the house and go to the gym. Otherwise, I would not exercise, and exercise is the second best thing I've ever done for myself lol. Go for it!!
