I am having a terrible attack of lazies. Today, I'll get my paperwork done. (been putting it off.) Also, yard work - enough to count as exercise - laundry, and start working on the final proof of second edition of Unfamiliar Waters. Does that really sound like a lot of work? It doesn't to me.
Me, signing off. |

I've been doing laundry before I start work on my Work From Home days (when I get up extra early). I was up today at 5:40am, so I got the whites done.
And now I dosing off as I type. __________________ Major Depressive Disorder; Sleep Apnea; possibly on the spectrum Nuvigil 50mg; Effexor 37.5mg; meds for blood pressure & cholesterol |

Somehow, I managed to volunteer for way too many things. It's not that I don't have time to do them all. It's that I tend to forget stuff when I have to much to do. Like making phone calls. or bringing things I need to bring. Wish me luck.

Hey teamsters. Ms. D. keep at it. I find sometimes its requires 2 or 3 runs at getting something done before I recall everything I need and have it ready when needed. Yes, I do remember to take my memory pill.
I also find that too much of a relaxed attitude lets things slip my mind. This is a true puzzler, because being calm and relaxed feels great, and getting annoyed because I forgot or misplaced something feels horrible. So, self, what's smallest level of attention that feels both relaxed AND tracks the tiniest of details? Lists are a kind of common ground tween the two selves, so I build 1 or 2, sometimes 3 every day. I've been making spaces and it's going great. Just 1 something a day ... a corner, our collection of paper and plastic bags, a box of collected books from the free libraries, or even clean a shelf in the fridge. Every random while I let a day pass with no advances, but I only allow 1 day breaks. When I passed that mysterious line where progress became apparent, my partner got into the spirit of it and we got rid of lots of stuff we'd been contemplating letting go for years. __________________ |

A day.5 hijacked! A tree fell across our power lines and created some odd results, total loss of power in a hall, and some units having partial power, some full.
The power co. thought they would have it done by 2 pm yesterday. In real time, they got it done about 11 am today. The funny part was people in the condo started emailing/texting me about when it would be restored! So I sent out the link for the power co. outage reporting page. The crew showed up, and for about 60 minutes we all had zero power. Reading by natural sunlight. What a strange idea. __________________ |

Reading by natural sunlight. it actually sounds wonderful. I hate that we're so addicted to electricity. Don't get me wrong - I love cooking with a microwave and using a computer. But it's so frustrating when we can't just plug something in and go.
My very bad news. We have property at the lake, and our dog got poisoned. She died yesterday.. She was off her food for a couple of days, but otherwise seemed healthy. Yesterday she collapsed, and in the end the vet put her to sleep. It was so unexpected. Luna was a young dog. This blows. |

Hi D, yes that blows big time.
Take matters slow to make space for your grief. Revu2 __________________ |
