Reality Me

Ambivalence

Here’s that thought process thing that gets me in so much trouble.

I can’t work right now because my mind won’t calm and I’m tired. I figure the best thing to do would be to remove the starter from the Jeep so that I can take it by Autozone to get the new one; however, the Haynes manual to the Jeep is awol. Could be in the garage; could be in the boxes in the bedroom; could be in my messy desk; could be somewhere else in the office. The act of trying to find the manual could lead to any of several multiple day projects. So instead I am frozen.

* I’ve reached that stage of the day where I am historically unfocused and unproductive. I have a longing to be doing something but can’t put my finger on it. I definitely need a change of task for a few but it needs to be entertaining and rewarding. Perhaps this is the time to remove the starter from the Jeep.

* Ah. The baby awakes from her nap. I’m making progress on the work but its still slow going. I’ll take some time to play with the baby (near 20 mths now). Let’s give her a little playtime in the crib. She sounds happy.

* Back on the job

* power nap

* Continuing to make coding progress but I feel like I’m walking through quicksand. I can do better than this!

* Cleaned out spam. Going to freshen coffee then get to programming like a rabbid beaver

* Kids dropped off. Trying desperately to read paper before taking the 13 yr old to school

* I’m getting close to 0 spam. Wierd feeling.

* I need hand lotion badly!

Woodburning stoves Everyone loves a fire. Everyone loves a huge, ancient oak tree. I’ve come to understand that I’m moving an oak tree into my house and that those things are heavy.

* Time to take the carpool to school.

A New Day!

Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:

This Morning

* Woke at 5:45 on my own accord and got up at 5:48 for a refreshing bath then woke the kids at 6:12. The baby cried out just before I went into the 10 yr old’s room (which is where the baby sleeps…I want to add onto the house sooo badly) but the baby stayed asleep. She must have had a bad dream.

* Regretting not staying up all night but happy that I didn’t at the same time

Today’s goals: Wrap this php thing!! Create a marketing piece. Remove dead starter from Jeep.

* was going to try to pull an allnighter but I need some sleep. Nite all.
