Findingaway check in

11.05 am Wednesday
I am all over the place this week. Never really got back into a good routine after Christmas, even though I still got some things done, and now only 3 days before I take 2 weeks holiday. The holiday was meant to be with my husband as well as other family and friends, but now the separation with my husband is continuing. Seeing him for lunch today for first time in 2 weeks, although we have spoken on the phone. Lots of emotional turmoil going on for me.
I will list my other things for today, it will give me something to focus on. In fact, hard as this time is for me I have learned something - in the past if I was experiencing difficult emotions I would want to only do 'comforting' or 'escapist' activities to distract myself from the pain. Now I am seeing that 'work' activities can give me something other than the pain to focus on, and at least I end up feeling better about myself when I'm finished.

Journey 9 am

Another snow day!   I had a dentist appt. this morning but it was cancelled due to bad weather, and I'm working from home again.   I got an early start today, have already done my email and I'm almost done with my todo list.   After I finish my list and schedule for the day, I'll exercise and then get dressed in my 'work at home' clothes. 

Yesterday turned out to be a pretty good work day once I got started.   It was a weird day, kind of stressful with the weather and hubby trying to drive in to work on the iced over roads.   I wanted him to stay home but he doesn't like to do that.   I'm glad I can work from home so I don't have to make that decision.   But anyway, I had trouble concentrating all morning and didn't really get started working until noon, but then I put in a solid 6 hours and finished an important task so I felt pretty good about that.   We've had power and water all week so that's a good thing. 

So now, finish todo list, then exercise.   Later!

pm ck in- walked.listened to phone meeting. lots on gratitude, keep it green, how quickly I forget. - didn;t even know I forgot.

Late work

I have a lot of make up work to do for school today. I'm going to eat breakfast and then get started.1. Economics-chp questions -study guide -project2. Precalculus- Makeup work for chp 10.-everything else (too much to type)3. Biology-chp 14 packet4. European-organize binder-study for test. (do this last because studying takes very long. Also I like this subject so I'll purposely take long to study for it and it will be the only one I study for)To the best if my ability I've broken everything down into chunks. They still seem overwhelming and I hate myself for procrastinating on them.

I'm sorry I had to disable

I'm sorry I had to disable the rich text. I didn't realize the type would look so cluttered. I forgot to add pray five times today. Forgetting that I think shows why my life is not as easy as it could be.
