I feel paralyzed if I consider a year.
But for one day, or one hour, or one minute, I can ask Higher Power to guide me to recovery.
Come, let's share our hopes and dreams.
Come, let's share our struggles.
Come, let's share encouragement for serene recovery.
Release the past, and find hope for the future!
Together, we recover -- one moment at a time.

kromer CO
Not as successful as I would have liked, but I did one of the paper tasks (emailing Mu) and made a little progress on the references thing, and I did the PCR, and checked on expts.
Also I had a great time on NYE with friends
Happy New Year's, everybody!

10:08am : It's been 7hrs 38min since i last went off plan. That is, from when i went to bed til i just woke up a few min ago. I had fun talking with friends, but i planned to go to bed so i could get up contact businesses today during business hours. That plan will still work. It would have been 25h 48min if i hadnt spent too much time talking. Of course that period had a lot of football and early new years party. I am glad i am here checking in and i do have some tasks today.

I've enjoyed the holiday season but I am considering today the beginning of my New Year. January is shaping up to be very, very busy at work so I will stay very focused but not get overwhelmed, taking one day at a time.
Right now I am going to make my todo list, exercise, and have a healthy breakfast. I'll be back with todo list in a couple of hours and I will post it here as I'm working from home today.
L8TR!

x Photograph kitchen before they come and after they leave - the guy is a good worker but could not do much of a job because the whole sink needs to come out and be replaced
x Phone to ask them for key to switch of external light - they are not answering the phone
x When they come see that they do - they couldn't get the key
x Study French
Finish the letter which I haven't finished - it might not be perfect but I so much want to do it before the years end
x Shower and wash hair - well it was a relaxing bath
Prayers and reflection at the ending of the year
Regards Rexroth
x update at 11.19
I've done a lot of cleaning and clearing and two loads of washing and soaked the sink and surrounds in bleach. I have thought and prayed about the past year and don't feel in a good space about it. I have thought and prayed about the coming year and feel much better about it.
So now for sleep.
