Happy Tuesday! Since Mondays are my least favorite day at work and I had yesterday OFF, I have HIGH HOPES for the week!
Slowly, yah, I think awareness = power for me in this regard...knowing that my subconscious may be feeling a bit under the weather helps to offset it..
Bridget!!! Thanks for the visit, Ms. Dynamo!
*********** The rest of the weekend was great...had a mellow Sunday evening...then yesterday we went hiking in the AM, out to breakfast, then back home for homework (h) and a teeny bit of housework (sage). I had school last night despite the holiday so that's where I spent my evening.
The plan for the week includes LOTS of baseball watching! GO RED SOX!!!
h was totally cute in many ways yesterday...I was crabbing about having to go to school and he said "does it help knowing that you're coming home to someone who loves you?" Well, yah, it does. THEN, I get to school, open my homemade PB&J sandwich and find a note from him! Gotta remember to keep tapping into h's abundant romantic side!
How am I doing with his LL?
QT -- very good. Hanging out on the couch, hiking, spending time together...
AOS -- hmmm...made some progress here yesterday, I think...did a couple of loads of laundry, straightened up one of the rooms, picked him up from school Sunday....doing OK but I think I need a BIG ONE (like a complete room overhaul or something) to feel on solid ground...
WOA -- Good. I need to remind myself that general compliments don't have the same + impact as specific comments focusing on things that he has done for us.
PT --
***************** I continue to realize and wrestle with the notion that some of my sadness/angst/blahness is squarely related to my work/school/career stuff -- not feeling solid or particularly interested at my job...feeling some malaise associated with the upcoming end of school (have I done enough? Have I used this degree process wisely? etc). I guess I just feel in my head -- and I know that putting some ACTION around making some changes would just help so much...
Anyway...onto the day and taking ACTION!
