Five arenas on an Ash Wednesday while on disability...

[jazzminarino]

Now, it's Ash Wednesday. I go back to work next Monday. There's been a roller coaster of emotions lately; I keep reaching out to various friends. Did I do enough on my leave? Did I do too much? How do I sit still and settle? Some of the concerns come from the amount I was with my parents, plus working the full-time and part-time jobs, plus

Sometimes when we go go go... we forget. We forget what it is like to have a normal schedule. And when it happens all at once, from one extreme to the other, it is hard to handle. It gets like that for me every winter when I go from working and commuting mad hours every day to NOTHING. Every year I am preparing better for it, but it is still hard.

Plus, you don't seem like the person who does idleness well. Not even being able to toddle must have been frustrating.

For the kitty, if he likes wet food, definitely mix it in. Its how I got my cat to eat. I also gave him baby food, and these weird kitty stew things I found in the store. There was also a nutrition shake for cats, haha.

My own car has 196+ on it. I'll hit 200K like in a month or so, once I go back to work in a couple weeks.

Love the idea of the five arenas. I've been reading a long time, almost since the beginning, and I never picked up on the arena thing. Or I forgot it. Or something.

See you tomorrow!
