9.45 am Friday

Thanks for the starter, lennon.

Yesterday it made such a difference to talk with my friends (and to vent a bit here), feeling a lot better now. I did do a few things and made a list for today too. I want to work on getting up earlier (and going to bed earlier!) letting myself down on this.

Work:

• finish off minor tasks list
• progress on backlog project - 2 hours - not done
• sort one area of office - not done
• think about how I want the office arranged - not done
• read one or two articles
• plan promo tasks - call PV? - not done

Home:

• bike ride - part done
• food order
• soak washing
• banking
• form to M for course
• post wake-up request
• text or phone to M - will do soon
• dishes - will do soon
• dinner - will do soon

Started too late, procrastinated at lunchtime, set too long a list. Now it's the weekend, time to do weekend things, and I will try again on Monday.

I also was quite productive yesterday. I didn't even check in here. Today is the exact opposite. I have wasted the morning, doing I'm not sure what, just trying to handle my anxiety, I guess. Had my online email account hacked overnight and used to send inappropriate and presumably malicious emails to everyone in my address book. That is stressful and embarrassing. I have a 3 PM interdepartmental meeting I have been asked to attend because the 2 people who actually know something about the project are out of town. I am stressed about that. I also have a growing pile of cases to review and write up. Stressful. My attorney left a voice mail about some financial forms related to my divorce I need to fill out ASAP. Stress? Why, yes. End result: I am paralyzed.

Here to set out some goals for the afternoon.

1. 1;15 to 2:30 PM: 5 x 15 minute case reviews, then move on, starting with the oldest first.

2. 2:30 to 3 PM: Do whatever reading I can find to get even a little up to speed on this project.

3. 3 PM: Attend this meeting but try to get out of there as soon after my topic is discussed as possible. I can't afford to stay there until 5 PM (scheduled end time).

4. Work on cases until 8 PM, with break for dinner.

5. Leave at 8 PM, go home and work on financial forms.

6. Bed by 11 PM.

Back to report progress. 

Geez after the SUCCESS on tuesday, yesterday I just called it a day. Connor wasn't helping with his teething/tiredness/fussiness but I could have gotten SOME stuff done. I didn't.

Sending all good luck with tasks! Sometimes I *want* to reply to people's posts but don't get around to it. I'm thinking of you all though.

Goodmorning All,

Thank you for being here.  This is my first check-in about 2 weeks, kind of fell of the wagon somewhat, but am grateful to be back--at least it was for a much shorter amount of time than last.  I've been oversleeping (although not very restfully) and underworking but plan on changing that around.  I'll be brief now, cause I'm running late...but wanted to make sure to at least check in.

So brief to do:

Check in

go to am app.

go to work

have breakfast

am meditation

pm meditation

pay gym memebership

Thanks all.

Show up (done) tGITH

To do list:work on changing my thinking:~ From the Orin and DaBen Website ~ Close your eyes and think
of a number between 1 and 42. Refer to that number on the list below. For one
day, work on developing the attracting quality of the pair below.

good morning all!

having been moaning that I've been overloaded with appointments and meetings I now have 5 unallocated hours in my diary today, plus all day tomorrow.  The danger of having this unstructred time is that I look at the piles of work waiting to be done and freak out!

However the last couple of days I have successfully cleaned the whole house by doing very tiny steps, so I think I need to apply the same philisophy to work

Plan

• AF reports
• DW report nearly finished
• AH letters
• process in-tray (which is overflowing) now not overflowing so much
• school reports
• file records
• plan what to do with any time left  what time left?
