Hello everybody. I'm in the part of the diagram where it says: "Is the deadline within six hours? Yes". Crap. Clam. Cramps.
For today:
- Finish that writing for Dio's sake!
- Schedule meeting with P by email.
- Go to meeting with P at 5 pm approx.
- After that, you'll be too tired to try to do anything but fall asleep until the morning after.
May confidence be within you, folks :).

Hi, everyone, and good wishes for today and tomorrow--thanks for being here!Â

Yesterday was not very
Yesterday was not very good, but I am confident that today will be better. I did accomplish somethings, as compared to nothing. But I had nothing done for my hubby when he came home from work, and I felt bad. :(
To Do List:
HighwaysSlave--12:00
Still sick, but getting better. Â A few days ago, got rid of the migraine triggering sleep aide, so those should be a serious thing of the past. Â Will get a fridge thermometer so that I don't get this agin.
For today, my agenda will be the same as tomorrow, I will try to begin each of these things,and if I can't, I will be merciful with myself and not beat myself up.
1) An hour of piano practice
2) An hour of flute practice
3) Lining up all dates for admissions forms
4) Working on purpose statement

showing up, not much to say. J had another health crisis last night and i am beyond tired and fearful. this morning I was extremely unpleasant to a utilities worker who was in the unfortunate position of defending their stupid policy - the one that requires her to decline my request for a water credit of the $350 an undergroup leak cost us. Her reason? I should have noticed that our monthly water bills were doubling, then quadrupling, and finally 10x normal. Of course I didn't notice that, because of this d*$%* disease! I thought I had neatly sidestepped my bill-o-phobia by setting up a fixed BillPay payment so I could avoid having to pay attention to the bills. I was madder than hel* and let her know it. She thanked me for my sarcasm and wished me a blessed day, which made me feel like crap. I can only hope she didn't recognize my name as the former well-known local church lady I once was. My behavior was certainly not a good example of the faith I profess. And you know what? I'm STILL mad as heck, not very ready to repent and certainly not ready to make amends. I paid the damned bill to keep the water on while I go on an out-of-town trip and hope J is still alive when I get back tomorrow. Now I just have to figure out what to do about the 3 other deadline projects that are due today, when I have to leave on a trip in 30 minutes and have not even packed.Â
Thanks Agnus
Not as detrimental as water but I had the misfortune of waking up to a knock at the door and barking because a rental place came to collect there product that I failed to make payment on. I told them I would pay them this past Thursdayj but failed to meet my responsibility. Instead I tried to shift the responsibility to my girlfriend who said she would but didnot. Early this mornng they came to pick up there product and I made like it was her fault when I should taken care of it. I was able to take care of the bill buy making a payment and I apologized for lateness which will cost me extra. Thanks for sharing again
i hear ya, agnus
glad you can vent here. There's good people here for that. Yeah, you had a lot of cr*p on you today. I feel for ya. I respect your recognizing you're not the "church lady" you should be--we're all at that point at times. We're not perfect. Never will be. But i trust that this will pass and you will feel renewed soon.
You know what they say:
We can't do anything to make God love us any more.
We can't do anything to make God love us any less.
You're in my prayers.

Journey 11 am
Late checkin, but I was in the office on time-ish, I got here just a couple minutes past nine which is good. Â
The past two days working from home haven't been that great - I had disruptions to my schedule with a vet appt and putting car in shop. . I didn't recover well enough from the disruptions.  I got some stuff done but could have done a lot better.  I'm back in the office today so hopefully I'll be focusing better.  Car is still in the shop so I'm driving the hooptie lol.
So far today I've done email, attended two meetings, and made my todo list for the rest of the day.  Let's see if I can get through my MITs today. I didnt' get them all done yesterday or Tuesday.Â

Be confident. Stay focused.  One thing at a time.
