Went for my newly-mandatory Sat/Sun a.m. hike (the woods are full of answers). Some insights, cleared my head a bit, but I let the day go downhill from there. Didn't tackle any of the many things around here I've fallen behind on (bills, business, lawn, laundry, you name it). Vegged out. Didn't mope, didn't obsess, just...nothing.
W called once this past week. I answered, she asked a family finance question, I answered, cheerfully, she asked a couple of benign questions (each time right after I said "OK, I gotta get going right now, talk to ya soon"), so it felt like she might've been trying to keep me on the phone, so I guess that's good. She was here three times in the last week. I wasn't here first time (making myself scarce), Here for her arrival second and third times, hello, few short pleasantries then I left first. I was upbeat, friendly, different clothes style, some obvious changes around the house, but how do you db (make yourself scarce, leave first, end conversations first, not always be there and showcase one's changes at the same time? I keep struggling with that contradiction. Well, gonna put together some notes for tomorrows TeleCoach 2 session but not before apologizing to all for lethargically venting a no-content bummer post.
