  • 2017-09-08 On Social Anxiety and Meeting People

    It has been a while since I woke up before 6AM, which feels like a really good thing. I feel like I am in a much better place than I was a month ago or two months ago and certainly a world away from where I was at in January. I’ve been fighting my way…

  • 2017-09-07 I’m So Done With Being On the Edge

    I think I am finally finished with the edging. Hooray!! I should stop and treat myself to something I love to celebrate that success (if I am following my own advice that is). The lines are good and the bricks are somewhat packed in (as much as I can with my body weight). I had…

  • 2017-09-06 Being Behind Becomes a Balancing Act

    Last week I was all about it being a new month and all the things I was going to get done. Now we are six days in and I’m still stuck on trying to get this backyard project done and balancing that with getting enough other physical activity to be satisfied and doing all the…

  • 2017-09-03 Sunday Status Update – Not

    I overworked myself yesterday and then proceeded to have a long and lovely evening followed by not enough sleep. I pushed through this morning and did some micro adjustments to the edging and then went for a walk around my Walnut Creek. I’m exhausted now but have lots on my mind. I need a nap…

  • 2017-09-02 Saturday Triple Play

    Yesterday I worked tirelessly on my edging project, including returning/exchanging bags of paving sand to Home Depot because I got the wrong ones first time around. In my infinite wisdom I had decided to lay all the bricks in first (which I did early this week) to get a nice clean line just the way…

  • 2017-09-01 September Strategy

    I am rolling into month #3 of not being employed. I’ve checked the numbers and I’m still good with regards to the financial aspect of this little experiment. I took a couple months to spend some extra special quality time with the kids and to work on “me” with the intent of not thinking or…

  • 2017-09-01 The Daily Dose is Doing Me Wrong

    I woke up at about 7 with a nasty crimp in my neck and am quick to take some over the counter (OTC) pain meds. At this point, I am finally getting around to reading that book I started in January about health and wellness and diet and and how the mind and body are…

  • 2017-08-31 Adios August

    Fitbit says I slept for 3 hours and 25 minutes last night. I don’t care. I’m feeling a little guilty for the long evening but I really lost track of time and didn’t know it had gotten so late. I want to wait an appropriate amount of time until I apologize. I also am really…
