Daily Check-ins

slider's last CI--11:23 pm

slider - 13 Aug 2006 - 11:36pm

Hi, Milo and bpjennings--the box says you are online.

After reading about dreams and fantasies (and responding to a few posts, surprising myself with the intensity of buried feeling I'm carrying around), I checked out the link to fantasy journalling, then explored the writing website. Wonderful! So I spent about 75 minutes adding to a short story I had started many months ago. I haven't decided where the story is heading yet, and it's been so long since I started it that I don't really remember my intentions,but I'm having fun just writing. Sometimes the darker side of me comes out in my writing. Tonight it was about ugliness. What I enjoy is telling a truth, particularly when it is an ugly one. In real life, I am too polite to do that, but in fiction....

Anyhow,

Deep..

You have been very introspective and insightful about yourself today, slider! I was rather mesmerised by your 'dreams' post. Had to read it a bout 3 times, actually, to absorb it all.

You also had a productive day - sleep well!!!!!!!

Aack! Where I blew it:
--be at other church early--by 2:30
--so LEAVE at 2:15 (but wait for one parent to follow)
--take all the stuff for the orientation!

I forgot I impulsively volunteered to provide the materials for making some kind of permanent nametags for class members of the cooperative confirmation class!!! At 2:15 I remembered!!! So I had DH stay home and wait for the mom to show up (and he had to ride with her) while I dashed to superstore and builder's store to come up with items. Wound up providing wallcovers (the ones used to cover up old electric sockets), that we decorated and hung on lanyards. Brilliant! But expensive (for decorating materials, not wallcovers) and made me late. Now I have to add a chore of sorting through the leftover material and returning the stuff we didn't use. THIS kind of impulsivity and forgetfulness are ADD traits I have in spades! I MUST stop volunteering for so many things!

Right now I sure don't picture doing the following--though after I eat and think about how long I've been putting it off, I might do it after all! Especially since I'm waiting for a return call from somebody who needs to get into the church.
--copy taxes

To Do:
--Eat
--bedtime routine

reminder: Monday call accountant to make appointment for Tuesday if possible

sounds like you need some quiet time to reflect.

I'm only half joking. Seriously... You sound a bit frantic. Do you take an hour for yourself each day? I think that's important for sanity.

Before-Bed Routine

Sounds like a good plan

slider - 13 Aug 2006 - 8:16pm

To think, to read, to restore one's spirit--sometimes far more useful than household chores (though, sadly, not always :( ) A good think may give you clearer direction tomorrow and all week--so long as it doesn't lead to a binge of naval-gazing that supplants all your recent hard work and successes (as it might do in my case).

I'm taking some quiet time, that's all.

pro (not verified) - 13 Aug 2006 - 8:41pm

I'm not "navel gazing". I'm writing in my journal. I didn't do it this morning. It's a good thing for me to do - keeps me in touch with myself, my feelings, and my needs (which I tend to ignore, otherwise).

You can't always be doing - or I can't. I'd feel like I was running around like a chicken without a head if I didn't take time to reflect.

no criticism

slider - 13 Aug 2006 - 11:04pm

I was not disparaging your sabbattical. I wouldn't. But I don't know you well enough to know whether you need comforting or a swift kick when you get blue, and you sounded a little blue. I wanted to offer encouragement, but then I wondered if it might not be enabling what could later be seen as getting off track. The last part was a wry acknowledgement that I, slider, can turn soul-searching into a massive time-binge with nothing to show for it--not even rest or peace, just more anguish and wasted time. But perhaps that's only because I've never gotten all the way through it, to the bottom. I have no idea how long that would take me!

I value journalling and reflective times immensely. Without them I slowly go insane. As I have been doing lately.

pro's CI - 7:30pm

pro (not verified) - 13 Aug 2006 - 6:35pm

It's late, I haven't had dinner yet (and I'm hungry), and I want to work on my accounting backlog a bit tonight, so I'm going to move my housecleaning to next Sunday. I might do it in bits during the week, but probably not. I need to do other things during the week, and I can use housecleaning as a procrastination. I won't need to do laundry next Sunday, so I'll have more time.

I never even caught up on posts yesterday - just played Tetris. I had a disturbing dream last night (somewhat related to my former house) that kept me up for a while, but I did get back to sleep and I'm not getting up too late. I have house cleaning to do today!!

I'm so happy other people are here today. Often I'm by myself here on weekends.

seeding the ta-da list

pro (not verified) - 13 Aug 2006 - 8:21am

> Was 'chatting' to Normy about this on another thread and thought I'd take it off-topic.

This is why I put my wake-up time on the ta-da list. I woke up - ta-da! If I put sleep on there, I wouldn't be able to check it off lately. I've been sleeply badly the last week - not typical for me. I'm showing all the signs of being upset about something that I'm pushing out of my mind - bad dreams, mindless eating, sleep problems. I need to have a talk with myself and find out what's wrong.

When you make up your day plan, do you decide how long you will spend on each item to make sure they'll all fit in your day? I've started doing that so I can actually succeed with my to-do list (cross everything off). It helps my spirits, and also helps me to use my time better because I'm recognizing that it's not limitless.

GOOD MORNING!!!

Normy - 13 Aug 2006 - 3:37am

Milo had a day off posting yesterday (although due to time warp was present on the thread earlier on in my day), and tl is away. So that left pro, slider, and Normy.

Slider and pro both had reflective moments and came up with some valuable insights. Slider has resurrected the Codependency and Procrastination thread and an ADD thread. And Slider's big achievement for the day: prep for confirmtion orientation ~before~ the last minute!

Slider LOL about the 'Blew Off' list - I might have to add that one to my repetoire. Sometimes I get so sick of something turning up on my lists that I decide I don't want to do it anymore!

pro discovered a concept that's alien to many procrastinators - The Day Off. Now you've got that one under your belt pro you're a ~real~ anticrastinator! The day still started with Morning Routine and ended with Bedtime Routine. Hopefully we'll get a report on the foetid plant today, LOL! (Is it ~really~ as stinky as they say?!)

I've posted in the Q&A&I about my Routines, and also about the Fantasy Journal (which I still haven't done this weekend :P - it's on the ToDo list!).

Just feeling down so wanted some company :( DH is as down as me so he's crap company now, too.

Kids are driving us nuts. If they aren't fighting, one is talking or nagging (she has verbal diorrhea) and the other is screaming or crying. One is sick (it's just a cold) and the other antagonises him. The sick one doesn't know if he's Arthur or Martha. He'll want something, then won't want it, then scream for it, then chuck a massive wobbly and run off into a room and glare at me from its corner. Throughout all this the other one is half a step behind me saying "Mummy...mum..mum..mum? Mum...Mum..MUM!!!!" "What are you doing? What did you say? Why is this a cushion? Why why why why???"

It's just bloody relentless right now. DH is bathing them so I have a few minutes peace. Why do we have children..???? Remind me???!!

same here

pro (not verified) - 13 Aug 2006 - 7:24am

I never wanted children for just that reason. I like other people's kids for a few minutes, and then I like to give them back. :)

LOL!

Normy - 13 Aug 2006 - 3:42am

That's exactly why I ~didn't~!

I got my answer!

Milo - 13 Aug 2006 - 5:21am

After I posted, still feeling miserable, my DS (he's adorable - like a little model) wandered in and said "Hello, Mummy!" And climbed on my lap for a cuddle. He smelt all clean and fresh and looked so cute in his little Bob the Builder jarmies.

So now I remember why! :)

If it wasn't for the support from the boards I don't think I'd be 'up' quite so often ;)
