Day 2,707: Nearly There
Man...I am nearly there. Two weeks straight of getting up at 7am. I write that, and I definitely feel...proud, but also totally silly. Like, objectively speaking, it REALLY isn’t that hard to wake up on time for two weeks. But, goddamnit, it was for me! I tried to get...
Day 2,706: Weedz
I never though pulling weeds could ever be therapeutic. I haaaaaated that when I was younger. Hated it. But now...it’s nice to put on a podcast and just be down with the plants and the dirt. Who knew? Got to go out and visit somewhere and pull weeds. Happy with the...
Day 2,705: Wow
So... I reaaalllyyyy didn’t want to get up at 7am this morning. I had a late night podcasting, I was really tired, but I’m committed so I did it anyway absolutely convinced I’d stay up for an hour and then go back to sleep. Nope. I knocked out all the shit I wasn’t...
Day 2,704: Let them eat cake
Oh boy, it’s late. Great day. I set a goal to write 3 pages and I DID IT. Work was great. Podcasting was EPIC. Also got to play some DJ times with Josh, too, before we podcasted. It was all excellent. And, now it’s waaaay past bed time. So, we’ll end it here and...
Day 2,703: Better…
Writing was good today. Great, even, but “good” and “great” are subjective, for sure. I can do better, output-wise. But...I need to be patient with myself. One step at a time. I need to build my confidence, find the pocket, one step at a time. I forced myself to...
Day 2,702: First Step
Ooooohhhh it was hard to write this morning. It’ll be hard tomorrow, too, probably, but gottdam...I still did it. 500 words I’m happy with. Two pages, almost. NOT the goal...but I still did it. Also did some work on the “project” that had me outdoors. That was nice....
Day 2,701: Raising the Bar
It’s exhausting to raise the bar. And scary. And exciting. I’ve been waking up on time for a week, now. And I’ve done what I needed to do miscellaneous work-wise. Tomorrow, it’s time to write new pages for the first time in a long time. Brand new pages. Fresh. New...
Day 2,700: Improvements
Back at it again. Didn’t have the BEST Monday in terms of productivity, but I did have a decent one. Lost some time in the middle part of the morning just by being not as super focused as I could have been. It happens. Tomorrow will be different. Got up on time!...
Day 2,699: Weeds
Got my hands in the dirt today. I used to hate that as a kid. Gardening. It just seems like endless chaos to me. Now that I’m older, I think it was just my parents’ style of gardening: no borders, sporadically done when things got really out of control, which they did...
Day 2,698:
Into bed on time. Woke up on time this morning. That’s four days in a row. Tomorrow will make it five. It’s still not easy...but I must say, I was expecting resistance to be more of a factor in this project to get Ira up when he wants to be up. I was expecting it to...
