Daily Check-in: Tuesday November 18th 2014

Progress not perfection.

 Following on from the discussion in the thread here, I though I'd offer a temporary workaround to not being able to create new threads and the unmanageabity of such a long 17th March thread, by recycling the thread from exactly on year ago to use for each daily check-in. Feel free to use whatever system works for you.

Yours in fellowship,

Jack

My sympathies - having been ill and only new better I understand how difficult it can be to be ill and to want to get on with things.

Peace Rexroth

@rexroth

Thank you Rexroth. So glad you've recovered. I think convalescence can be a really tricky time for us because there is such a grey area between tiredness and procrastination, and we can feel bad about resting.

@Mole

Hope you feel better soon my friend Rest up.xo

@jalla

Thank you for your well wishes, dear jalla.

Mole's check in

Thank you so much jalla. Sometimes the idea that the past will let go of you can be scarier than carrying its burden. 

I was listening to a programme on Radio 4 Tempus Fugit, in which they were talking about how being totally focussed on the present moment diminished our sense of time rushing past.

still bugged by a virus that has left me exhausted. Two hours work done this morning, two hours rest, healthy lunch, veggie shopping one hour rest and now it is 3.30.

Yesterday I did manage quite a good clean up, so the house does not feel so depressing.

There are three main areas I need to focus on.

1 putting some organisation into all the things I have to do, actions, filing, phonecalls, online tasks, town tasks, finances, correspondence. I need to sort the urgent from the not urgent.

that was 1, now I can't remember what the others were.. Perhaps they are part of that. I do need to make a a countdown plan towards traveling.

make a to do list for tower business 

eat healthy meal
