11th_hour CI 6:40pm
Last night I considered extending my bedtime (what's an extra 15 minutes?...) Instead, exactly at 11:00 I turned out the lights! I woke up early and didn't have to rush before work. Got to work on time again too! At work though, AGAIN I did not accomplish my main objective (or even attempt it). Tomorrow is another day... Try again, HARDER!!
Thanks to Hypatia for starting this thread with adorable photo! It reminds me that I need to be gentle with myself and with others.

hope4meandu day 2
Thanks Hypatia, love the starter!!
K, today I will look on the net for vets, dog/animal places in my area and go in and ask if I can volunteer.
Today I will wash the kitchen floor and make try to make chicken a new way.
Today I called in sick again. Will mention tomorrow to hopefully find someone who can come in spur of the moment, when I won't be there, they don't pay me when I'm not, so at least they'll have someone. I can't be counted on and it's not fair to them.
Call the woman back that I gave help to with her dog, maybe.
Wishing you all blessings and miracles!!

Journey noon
Working from home today. Have the house to myself for the first time since my daughter moved out. Not having too much trouble staying on task today because I had two meetings this morning and two meetings this afternoon. Now I need to get some of my on-call duties done before the next meeting starts. I will not have much time to work on my project today, as on-call duty takes precedence, but I will get to it if I can. See you later!

I am much closer to my big project deadline but still far from done. I have been doing a pretty good job staying on track but it's a big project with unrealistic amounts to be done. Sometimes it's easy for me to blame myself. That doesn't seem to fit this time. This makes it almost worse. I'm facing my lack of control. Wanting to give up and catastrophize before it's even over. Too familiar sh@t. I'll fake being hopeful, confident and enjoying the process.

I think I got it right this time.
OK, I think I've started the thread correctly this time.
My secretary has just come in saying I'm being asked for a report I should have done several weeks ago. :(
today's plan
H.
Still not doing well. I did a load of other things people wanted urgently, which maybe should have been on my list in the first place, but then my list items don't get done.
One success at home I'm pleased to say. I've completed 10 change of address notifications (we moved house 3 months ago). Lots of other things I haven't done, and my husband is nagging me for them, but I've made a start!
