2021-02-10 The Mirror I’m Looking at is Also a Revolving Door
I suppose I’ve been past due for another “In the Mirror” moment. By now, with the reliable repeat, I guess it’s always just a matter of time until it happens again. I’m talking about the moment I step on my treadmill and look at myself in the mirror (figuratively and literally as the treadmill faces…

2021-02-08 Why Was I Looking Forward to Monday?
It’s Monday and I’ve got my plans. I’ve got every single day of my week loaded up with to-do items. As this day begins, I’m evaluating all of it and (as I start adding more that’s already beaming like neon sign with priority) I think to myself how much of a miracle it will be…

2021-01-17 Reminiscing With My Daughter About My Daughter
Day 2 waking up with cringe-worthy cramps. But.. I’m not going to let it keep me down today. I can do better. I have a little time to collect my thoughts and get my act together. Yesterday I may have “let go” and tried not to let my mood control the day. I may not…

2020-12-25 Merry Efffin Christmas
It’s a mood. It’s not necessarily a bad mood or a good mood. It’s just a mood. Christmas. Whatever. Yesterday I kinda said efff it to stuff and did what I wanted. I had said previously that what would be good was a repeat of thanksgiving. Just us here at the house having fun. No…

2020-12-24 It’s Always the Eve of Tomorrow
Christmas Eve today. On one hand it’s all just fine. I have everything I need here. My people, love, nourishment, warmth, opportunity, and am looking forward to tomorrow and the adventures we will find there. On the other hand, it just doesn’t feel right. It doesn’t feel like Christmas or the cusp of another residency…

2020-12-20 Stand in the Mirror and Wait for Feedback
Sunday again. Lacking sleep again. Still working on that lecture. On and on. I’m trying not to freak out. You know, but there’s so much to do. Res. GLR. Christmas. Bills. You know I’ve got bills that are like 60 days past due and I can’t even begin. I don’t know what’s wrong with me.…

2020-12-03 Two Fer One Thursday
Yesterday was another long day that moved faster than the normal speed of time. A late morning request led me back across the river to a floral shop in CB followed by a late lunch. Second day in a row inside a restaurant. Not sure how I feel about that. I also picked up my…

2020-11-30 Bow for November
My second full month in my new job is coming to a close. This morning I’m tasked with making breakfasts and lunches for my people and will of course get doing dishes and scooping litter boxes. And I’ll be working on the lit mag some. And hopefully finding time to read and write outside of…
