Another Day Grinding Away

Jun 17, 2008 09:32

I remember having the better part of your day planned every day five days a week. It's strange loosing some of that freedom again, I've spent close to 5 years now having an inconsistent and fairly flexible schedule. Now I know that I have to wake up by 7 every morning, to work by 8:30. Lunch at 1:30, and off at 5.

The consistency is nice, but kind of unusual to me. It's strange knowing what I've got on my plate, and working on using my time wisely. It's a new challenge for me learning how to cope and I'm excited about figuring out how to maximize the use of my time.

Life over all is good. There's a few things that are lacking, I'm looking forward to having a place of my own, but I realize that I'm a ways away from that yet. It'll be nice to start hobbies again, I've not been very motivated to pursue the things I enjoy and I imagine that as I get better at managing my time the more interested I'll be in doing those things again.

Growing up continues to be an interesting experience. I'm far from bored with it yet. I've been pretty good about surrounding myself with challenges that keep me questioning what I know. I love it.

I don't rest much, if at all. But being busy is better than feeling unaccomplished. For the first time in years I'm able to afford to pay for the things I need to. I'm doing repairs on my car, that feels really good. I can take Corrine out to nice places, that also feels really good.

The day moves much quicker when I'm working full time like this, this year is going to go super fast. I'm already a little intimidated by the idea of that.

I'm looking forward everything. I feel a little impatient and at the same time I feel like I hardly have enough time. I need to find the balance.

I'm getting there.. it's a good thing. I'm in a good place.
