Another Ordinary Day
Wow I feel self-indulgent trying to do this every day already. I was going to skip posting for that reason but I want to get in the habit of sharing my thoughts. It helps clarify them and stops them constantly spinning around.
Well, today I went to work though not as early as I'd hoped. I got the new Concert Diary online, bribed the fill-in receptionist with a Lindt ball to fold brochures for me and had lunch with sirkahless to farewell him. I read a few things and filed a few things - day went fine.
I need to wake up and get to work earlier than I have been so that I can fit some exercise in after work. I've been letting myself get to work "late" cos I've been rather sick and wanted to let myself get as much sleep as possible. I think I'm recovering OK now but my immune system quakes at windy days...
So, so far, I have a morning routine that includes showering, dressing, brushing teeth and hair, and moisturising (though I like to call it "the creaming" for kicks). At my age, I seem to need a lot of moisturising :P At work, I have my morning cuppa tea with some sort of b'fast bar and then start completing things on my "Calendar of Tasks".
After work if I don't want have anything on then I try to practise violin as soon as I get home. I don't cook dinner every night anymore! We order frozen meals that are calorie controlled instead. I cook dinner once a week and we try to get take away that isn't fast food on the w'ends. Not cooking has literally given me so much time to improve my violin playing that I'm enjoying it more than ever! I know we can't do this forever but hey, right now we can afford the meals and the time for me to practise - w00!
So now after dinner, I am going to post. Tonight I actually had to read more Shakespeare sonnets first. I still have more to read... but here I am.
What I'm writing about here is my routine atm and trying to form healthy habits. Maybe I can turn my posting routine into an exercise or composing habit instead... Ahoy to those out there who are trying to stick to something!
