This little streak of unhappy days needs to come to an end … like yesterday. I’ve got too much to do to be this tired and out of sorts. I wonder if I need to DELIBERATELY take a day off. Wake up tomorrow whenever I feel like it. Spend the day reading in the yard. Not answer the phone. Not worry about my accomplishments. Just let a day happen. I shall ponder this concept.
To "guinea pigs": I've developed and posted some instructions and critique prompts
HERE. My Keeping Score Results:
Violet (functioning):
175 accomplishments, 206 health and body, 114 work and home, 11 mind and soul
20 point handicap for “got my sudden-cold-from-hell-because-I’m-premenstrual tonight. I'm so tired of being a potential case study for interesting and unusual maladies.” (Quoted from an instant message to my daughter a few minutes ago.)
10 point handicap for the fact that nothing bleepin’ works around here - the washer is suddenly leaving rust stains on my clothing … the oven door is stuck in the locked position because we tried to use the self-clean feature … my car’s breaks are done.

175 accomplishments, 206 health and body, 114 work and home, 11 mind and soul My Keeping Score goal is to generate scores between 165 and 230 ... such scores indicate that I am staying on top of my tasks and working toward achieving my dreams.
At the 165-180 level I am funtioning well without feeling stressed.

In order to effectively use handicaps in this version of Keeping Score, I have to manually adjust the sphere score (when I paste the results into my blog) if I take a handicap of more than 10 accomplishment points. (OKCupid doesn't handle numbers past 127.)
Any sphere score that has more than three digits shows that I used a handicap.
