I lost most of today to a headache which was probably a migraine. Bleh. Not quite what I had planned, needless to say. I took the dogs to daycare and then napped for most of the afternoon, and even that combined with meds didn't completely get rid of it. I am kind of irked about it, but it is what it is. Tomorrow I have another 12 hour shift to ( Read more... )

Happy Fathers' Day to all of my lovely friends who play a paternal role in someone else's life. <3 ( Read more... )

So KK and I had our first buddy productivity session tonight, and it was definitely a success on my end. We started at 18:00 and I stopped just shy of 20:00 so that I could have food. We chatted away the whole time, and I emptied the dishwasher, cleared off all the kitchen counters and the stove, dealt with the recycling, cleared off part of the ( Read more... )

I keep being told that perfection isn't attainable, but I keep being mad at myself for not being perfect anyway. Intellectually I know that it's a waste of energy and probably counter-productive to boot, but it's very difficult to convince my brain to not fall into patterns of telling me just how much I suck for every single thing I do wrong, for ( Read more... )

I don't know if I will have the stamina to write out all the plans I'm having existential angst about.

I took Peggy for a walk  around the neighbourhood, and we met several dog friends and saw a bunny! The bunny held very ( Read more... )

Peggy and I had a very good day with her Uncle Dylan and Auntie Sarah. I got up later than I had planned (the theme for the week continues), but managed to get there by about 11:00, so it wasn't too late, all things considered. Visiting the little farm is always a pleasure. I took Peggy's check cord with me (it's basically just a long, soft rope ( Read more... )

Guess who forgot to take her meds the VERY NEXT MORNING after she vowed to do better? Go on, GUESS. XD ( Read more... )

This week was a bit of a wash. I tied myself into knots because I wasn't being as productive as I wanted, and that of course resulted in my doing even LESS because my brain is a ridiculous creature that responds to that sort of thing by shutting down and procrastinating. *sigh ( Read more... )

Work resumes tomorrow. I didn't realize when I took my vacation the week before last that it was right before two four-day weeks, so it kind of feels like I haven't been at work at all. It's been nice but also part of me is stressing out because fewer days at work means getting less done.

I declared tomorrow a "work from home" day because I ( Read more... )
