Another slow start #today after staying up late hanging out with the #MutantFam.
I've already had more tea. I took advantage of today's sun to catch up on skipping yard work yesterday. The timing of the recent days and days of rain and the limited chances to deal with the speed the grass in our backyard now grows has invited mushrooms to invade.
Tonight I will go to a friend's birthday party at my favorite local taproom.
Good #Slackerday morning to you. I'll join the chorus of folks who did NOT see the aurora borealis last night. Our chances were slim, due to thick clouds, so my expectations were low. I never saw them during a 3-week trip to Alaska, years ago. I love the photos people are sharing, though. Keep them coming! 💗
I'm feeling particularly lazy today, and I'm just going to go with it. I know it will pass.
Enjoy your day. I hope you can carve out some time for yourself. 🤗
After years of multi-player games, I'm immersed again in single players. Part of my paring down to the foundations, I think. Looking for the base on which to build again.
Too much in my own head?
Possibly, but I'm usually looking outward. Seldom looking inward.
Reading shows me other worlds, but games become mirrors of myself. Not always a pretty picture, but it seems to be working.
I hope you find something that works for you #today
Donned shorts and flip-flops for the first time this year. Croc ones and they were too uncomfortable. I popped in White Rose and they had a Nike pair. They are sooo comfy 😊
Did a photo shoot at my friends studio. I brought costumes and hats for people to wear for my photo groups Funny Photos exhibition we are doing.
Spent the rest of the day outside the pub with my friends in the sun.
It's always weird to get my parent's mail (I have the exact name of my father). I also get my mom's mail too, which tracks as as far as I'm aware they are still married. I'm reminded of my choice of going no contact and how it's improved my mental health overall. I'm glad that I checked the mail after drinking coffee. Otherwise, my two brain cells would've stalled for several minutes while the third woke up during the caffeine ingestion phase of my day. 😂
I am leaning into no meeting Friday with a slower start this morning. I puttered for a while which also gave my mind time to ponder my larger tasks ahead #today.
I've been processing my thoughts on equanimity from last night into how I want to approach work for my $dayjob. Mostly I am appreciating that there is no overblown sense of urgency. I want to do my best work and am re-learning what that looks like after 2+ years of a very different environment.
I spent another good day #today working out thoughts and next steps for $dayjob.
Leaning more into curiosity led to me being happier with each iteration. I felt a lot less like checking specific boxes that needed filling and more like I was finding the best way to share my ideas and questions with my collaborators.
Another day, another chapter, as I settle back into my routine today.
Still, the weather grows mild & my AllTrails app keeps sending me temptation. The trails beckon. This year, I’ll explore the trails on Blue Mountain to the west. I haven’t there in years or done serious hiking there.
Summer is always a reminder of why I live where I do. It’s literally an outdoor playground and my health is greatly improved.
Good Friday morning. Habit got me out of bed this rainy morning. I felt like sleeping in but put it off for no apparent reason. Coffee hasn't helped a lot, so I'll try plan B, which is to get up and move.
There isn't much I absolutely have to do except terrorize the cats with the vacuum cleaner, but they are used to that.
Enjoy your day, not matter what you do or choose not to do. 😉
Happy Friday friends!
It’s party cloudy, 55F (13C) this morning and reaching 70F (21C) by this afternoon. I think a convertible ride is in our future, & blow the stink off.😝 Heading to the Loading Dock in Illinois. It’s a beautiful drive, mostly slow cruising & crossing the river with 2 ferries. The wkd is crazy there so we avoid that at all costs.
My hubbys lower back issues have been relieved with 4 treatments of acupuncture and PT. So the long drive #today will not be a problem.👏🏼
😘🤗 #TGIF
Lots of pain this morning. I think it's the humidity. In any case, I skipped my walk and am heading out soon for my haircut. There's so much I need to get done, and I don't feel up to any of it.
Well..darn, up late today with not getting out of bed til 6:30 or so and I need to pour down another cup of coffee before I get on the indoor bike before 7:30..not going to be warm enough to ride outside until almost 10 so I guess I have time to not rush today...I was excited about the 6 CME's that came out of a sunspot complex yesterday but it's going to be cloudy tonight so no northern lights here...not much to do today but cooking and laundry but that will keep me busy...good morning! #today
Well..had a good day today and got three rides in before 11am..I think that will be the schedule for now...the bike is working fine with the adjustments I did to it so I'm going to wait to install the new rear shifter until the one on the bike stops working..have to wring every mile out of it I can..didn't make soup today since I helped my brother with his car again and found leftovers hiding in the fridge..not sure about the entertainment tonight but "Discovery" looks good.Good evening! #today
My lunch meeting went very well #today. I am cleared to proceed with my first $dayjob project. My ideas on approach were well received. I already have some solid next steps in mind for myself and my new team. I received helpful feedback.
So #today I'll take another stab at live streaming. I'll be running some tests through out the day. My official stream will be at 2pm PST. Make sure to follow @Funk for alerts.
Other then that, there's nothing pressing for me to do today. So it'll be one of those days where I have to find stuff to feel busy. Time will tell.
