Blech. Hectic day today at work. Nothing crazy, but it did hijack both of my writing sessions, morning and afternoon. Luckily, I just wrote almost 500 words just now. Good words. Easy words. Hoping that continues tomorrow before I send my pages off to J. Sigh. I wish...

This weekend was a self care weekend. I feel so much more myself. I built a table for my model crafting. I watched the Niners beat down the Packers. We went and got Christmas photos with the pups. I took a nice long nap. Therapy was intense, but helped put some things...

Therapy was intense today. I talked about my biological father, a man I've never met. It's...a very uncomfortable subject, I'm realizing. Something that I've really avoided thinking about or talking about most of my life. And I think it's affecting my writing. There...

Coco struggles against getting her eye drops every night. Every. Night. I looked up some videos, and it looks like there's a better way. She still struggles against it, but I wonder if I can work on conditioning her with treats to not be so afraid of the way I'd need...

Late entry bc of casting. We watched Sullivan's Travels tonight, which was a film I knew absolutely nothing about. Which was exciting. The film...not so much. But more on that when the episode drops 😎 Work today was great. I got so much done. Writing was not...

Coco sleeps that hard sleep now. The old sleep, where it takes a second to wake her up. She doesn't hear me immediately, or smell me. I wake her gently, with a rub or two, and she's woozy for a second, and then she's up like she's always up. But, the sleep is harder...

That feeling when you recorded a podcast episode, and then through a series of really stupid decisions, lost the recorded audio for that podcast. I could have saved the situation. I think that, specifically, is why this one is so hard to let go of. I could have saved...

It's so good to be home. I'm looking forward to work tomorrow. Looking forward to getting there on time (which means making a bit of a quick entry tonight), to meditating and writing, getting a full day of work in, then writing a bit more. Josh and I should be...

My success has always run a direct route right through my own level of happiness and contentment. I realized that at therapy today. What I fear about stepping away from Netflix is not that I won't or can't succeed. I already know I can. I've done it before. Several...
