Hi, Folks. 🙂 Happy Tuesday! I hope you've enjoyed the beautiful day, of whatever kind of beautiful it was today. 😊 It's been a good day today. Got up right at four, and dropped to the ground to do some pushups to get the blood going--hoping to help me wake up faster. Not sure if … Continue reading 2021-11-09 — Steady Forward Progress

Perhaps this is not the normal form of meditation. I do have music playing in my headphones. I do have my eyes closed, mostly. I'm thinking about frustration and anger. Looking back over my day yesterday and even already this morning. I get up at 4:00 now, as you know, and my mom doesn't get … Continue reading 2011.11.09 — Morning Meditation

Buenas nacht, my amis! Happy Monday to all y'all. 🙂 I'm not quite sure what the deal was, but I went to bed around 9 ish, I think, and i woke up fairly wide awake multiple times in the night. Once at like 11:30ish, once at like 1:30ish... and I was awake and not really … Continue reading 2021-11-08 — Chugging Along

On October 24th, I wrote a post called "Life Makeover." I talked about making a course correction, which would include making a number of changes. So... we adjusted course two weeks ago, and how's it going? Here's a report: 🙂 Getting up at 5: I've done quite well! The latest I've gotten out of bed … Continue reading 2021-11-07 — Week 2 Report 😊

Unlike the other days this week, struggling to get out of bed, I woke up at 4:30... before my alarm. 😶 Not sure what that was about. I didn't want to get up, so I tried to fall back asleep until the alarm went off, but I don't think I was very successful. Either way, … Continue reading 2021-11-06 — Missing Stoic?

Day went rather well, until the last car, which was a job I've done who knows how many times before, and it just went sideways--really really sideways. But we're good now. It's late. Gonna cut it short, so I can get this stuff off to mom, so she can go to bed. 6 cars... 2014 … Continue reading 2021-11-05 — Reprise, Minus the NDE

It's me who brings me back to earth. Last job went quite sideways today when it should have been easy. I almost got in a major wreck because i was being stupid. Got home way later than i hoped (had my nephew Hunter with me today, so i was trying to get back sooner). Up … Continue reading 2021-11-04 — I’m Still Me

Happy Wednesday. 😊 I'm really tired. 🙃 So... right into it. Daily report! Still getting up at 5 every morning! (or a handful of minutes after 5)Doing my 5x5s (though I haven't been good at setting my timer, so I'm taking a lot longer than I should. 🙃)Meditation, check. Breakfast, check. Working on the NP, … Continue reading 2021-11-03 — Early to Bed

😁 Bring it on. No excuses. Thank you, Les Brown. I turned on a Les Brown motivational speech this morning, and boom, I was back. Man, it's so easy to slip back into the negative. The tentacles grab on so quickly and effectively, but I have a utopian-thinking heart and soul, so my natural self … Continue reading 2021-11-02 — Indomitable, Reprise

Dad turned 80 today. Crazy. So crazy. I turn 40 next month. I'll be as old as he was when I was born. Nutty. A bit tougher today holding on to the motivation. Well, more than a bit, but I'll keep fighting. The obstacle is the way. I'm making good progress, really good progress. I … Continue reading 2021-11-01 — Happy 80th, Daddio!
