Hi group! Uunexpected work responsibilities (a call from the boss at 5:15) kept me up way late last night so I started today with a nice sleep-in sanctioned by my Higher Power. Then I had my Step 11, personal and pet care, breakfast, a conference call, a colleague call, a client call, and some email.

I played 2 rounds of Free Cell while on the phone; not sure if this is ADD compensation (helps me listen better), or addict behavior (holding out). I welcome others' opinions on this point.

Next I would like to ~~enjoy lunch~~ DONE, research and outline that newly-urgent work project IN PROGRESS, finish AP xls, call schools, walk dog, enjoy dinner and take treats to the grandkids. ADDED: schedule therapies, travel for next week.

need to rat myself out - I am resisting doing the research and writing on this new project. Been surfing on the excuse that I needed to clear out my Inbox...which I do, but not as urgent and important right now as this project. Going to chatbox now to get back on track.

Journey 10:30 & update

journey - 30 Oct 2009 - 1:01pm

Happy Friday! Today I want to work on Project V and the tedious Project P. I have a nice lunch planned with friends from my old job and I'm looking forward to that. I'll check back after lunch because I am sure I will feel like slacking off after the nice lunch!

Update 2 pm ok I've been back from lunch half an hour and as expected I'm goofing off. Telling on myself and getting back to work!!

kromer 9:40 CI

kromer - 30 Oct 2009 - 1:51pm

OK, running a little late today.

So far, I've gotten a Halloween costume today.

Today I have scheduled: church halloween party 4:30-9

Today I want to:
*Organize computer files (will do this soon)
*~~Do 1 midterm problem~~
*buy tickets (will do this soon)
*write up primate data
*get together gene lists, run GSEA(working on this now)

If I have more time I want to:
*deal w/ financial stuff
*NLP catch-up
*start research other species

OK, now I'm going to try to do the midterm problem now. Heading to the chatbox.

Update 2:45--OK, well I'm having a bit of a rough day, but I have gotten the midterm done.

Now, I need to get together gene lists and make sure I have preliminary GSEA results. What I'd like to have is results for cyp26b1, first wave, and stages. Steps for this are:
*Re-run GSEA for cyp26b1 data and type up results, get gene lists and look at them
*Figure out how to map btwn mouse and rat data
*Figure out to best align stages and first wave data
*Run GSEA on stages data
*Run GSEA on 1st wave data
*Run GSEA on combo data

OK, will work through this in the chatbox

7am start by the grace of god. i mean that--it feels externally powered.

ci - DONE
blockbuster - DONE
check emerg email & mtgs - DONE
make lunches - DONE
rdy - DONE
oops dozed off !
quiet time - DONE

preparation:
- god i implore you to give me the ability to pray without ceasing
- fill the void inside me so i need and want nothing
- i will never be able to do otherwise if you leave me to myself
- it's all god's business

today's aphorisms from The Practice of the Presence of God by brother lawrence

- we should make a great distinction between the acts of the intellect and the acts of the will

- asking for god's grace to do his work well.

- the shortest way to union with god is to go straight to him by always loving him and doing all things for his sake.
