Been so busy. Busy missing this board. Completely run down, running myself ragged, doing too much. But of course it's still be a lot of doing the wrong things since I cannot seem to find a way to overcome the evil demand resitance.

So, at least I'm making a half attempt to check-in. Hope to continue this week.

A few goals tonight/tomorrow:

-Pay bills & update bill sheet
-Look for job
-Check actual websites
-Do anything else that might bring in money. Stupid demand resistance.

thanks to all you folks who come here and share your stories.

and--this might sound odd--but thanks for your struggles, because i had a hard afternoon and coming here to see that others are struggling with what i'm struggling with--well it gave me great encouragement. i was hopeless, but now i'm hopeful.

I am very grateful to god for constructing the human psyche such that we have the ability to encourage each other so. During this time before paradise, this is a big booster.

"fall down seven times, get up eight" - japanese proverb

Hi all,

Not as productive yet, as I like, but here's what I did so far:

-WW meeting
-made an amends that I've been wanting to make for years and years
-got a reply from making an amends to someone (thankfully they accepted it) I was so worried. Still haven't gotten a reply from my best friend growing up...
-answered emails.
-checked tdf for shows
-checked bank balance

It's so important to me to list the big and little things I do, I don't know why, but it is.

To do (know I won't get it all done today:
-take Yoffee for long walk (hopefully hubby will do this - as I always do)
-clean walls
-clean dishes in kitchen
-wash kitchen floors
-clean refrigerator
-clean bathroom
-laundry
-clean bedrooms
-dust
-join an oa loop for help with 9th step

As usual don't know where to start, chatbox!!

I would like to contact my downstairs neighbors, as I see they are angry and find out what the problem is or are and try to correct it, if possible. Really scared because it most likely involves bringing our little roach pests into their home it means that I will have to get our exterminator here, but it also means - how do you apologize for this horrible thing? They have children and grandchildren and a small dog!! I will commit to bringing in the exerminator as often as they need. Also in yesterday's wind storm, the back tree fell down and would like to help them keep the tree.

♥"Prayers for my Yoffee's complete & speedy recovery and prayers for direction & clarity on how she can be healed.♥

Argh time change! (almost forgot, but luckily someone posted a sign on the lab door late last night)

Dragged myself out of bed and went to church.

Now I'm in lab. There's a lot of stuff that I would like to get done, so I need to prioritize.

MITs:
*Email BrdU protocol
*Finish grading, double check points addition, enter grades, email other TAs
*Start IHC
*Budgeting

Other tasks:
*Go over physiology lesson
*Shop + cook
*Exercise
*Clean up giant piles of papers
*Make schedule for next week.

OK, going to finish grading now...should be able to get it done in an hour or so. (Then I still need to check/enter pts. )

Online P.A. meeting remains UTC Standard Time year round.

This is because we have people in all different time zones -- all over the planet
-- northern and southern hemispheres --
with different regions changing in and out of daylight time on differing weeks.
So therefore we don't change with the clocks. We leave the meeting at UTC Standard Time year-round.

Daylight Savings Time here, I dislike it when the time changes but what can ya do lol?  I'll adjust.   Today is housework day.   I'm sorting the laundry, then I'll have a break and a snack and another checkin.

UPDATE 3 pm laundry is sorted, second load in the wash, and a load folded, cat litter changed.   Now to mop the upstairs hall (where the cat litter is located!) and more folding, then check back.
