Yikes. Today was rough. Had a good session with my therapist, then came home and did... nothing. Took a four hour nap and barely fed myself today.

But, I did do my sit, and I'm not crushing myself as bad as I normally do. I'm proud of myself for checking in. Now I think I'm going to do the dishes and head to bed. It'll be nice to end on a good note and try again tomorrow. Good night everyone!

Journey TGIF 10 am

What a long stressful week!   I am in the office.  I have been to the gym, read and responded to email and checked my calendar.   Now for todo list - I am mentally and physically tired - and tomorrow I'm helping my daughter move so that won't be very restful either lol.   But it is still Friday and I am looking forward to the weekend away from work.   The two new projects are in waiting status for today, so I'll get back to my other two projects, one relatively high priority with a hard deadline, the other one kind of open ended.

I am planning to go out to lunch today with friends so that is something to look forward to today.   And tomorrow I will get to see my kids even though I'll be doing physical labor!

AllOfTheAbove, fri march 30th check-in.

Fear can become intense. I'm defeating it in some minutes, as soon as I finish posting.

Pfff. Haven't returned since Sunday. I started very well then, but old ghost is kicking in again since Monday. It happens everytime I finally submit an update of work to P and then ¡puff! I give myself a big, big pat from which is hard not to stick around.

Thanks to the Subtle Matter for I am here again, today, and with 3 days or so of comitting my actions to the Bad Ghost, instead of 3 months!

This shigt does feel like detox! Fear kicks in but what the hell.

By the way, it seems the board has acquired a very 2004 feel and look, or perhaps it only looks strange in my computer. Anyways, this look I like better. Has a 2004 feel which I find simpler and easier to the sight. Thank you.

Today, I will:

- Do Pd.
- Do Arduino.
- Do writing.
- ¿Perhaps? Do /that/ monster (italics don't seem to work with the new look and feel ;)  ).

Already:

- Cooked.

This is great. Good productive day may go to you all.

Fear is only a thought and as a thought you can ignore it.

Good luck, Lennon!

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, Lennon.  But are you attacking the things you are putting off, aside from attending meetings, eating and testing your blood sugar?

What other goals do you have? 

What steps are you taking toward meeting your goals? 

Sending hugs.
