😐 You’ve Got To Be Cruel To Be Kind

Dropped kids at the respective times and took off to work. Karl helped. Got to work, parked in a different space, and set about the day. Back issues continue but seem moderately better. Worked through the AM and left at lunch and WFH for the PM. Took Lauren's iphone for a new screen given that the shattered one finally gave out, to Apple LG, snagged a burrito for Tommy from Andale (stamp card = free), and he worked at Cub Scouts w/Mark and others helping w/a project. I returned to get him and he was praised by several. Lauren surprised me as I was going to get her wanting to go out w/her cast mates to IHOP and I conceded. It was a bit hard to 'let go' but she was with a parent and other kids and they're having fun and It's time to let her be more independent. I got a response from my attorney as to the settlement status that's left me dumbstruck but I'll deal with that elsewhere. Started listening to "The Book" by Alan Watts (audio) while doing some floor stretches (back pain) after getting house picked up.



I'm sincerely glad I found my attorney, who has always been very rational and reasonable and supportive of the venting anger and frustrations being balanced by the sincere good intentions and priorities.



I need to keep working the stretching into my day. I've yet to prioritize and maintain the movement ritual and damn, it's clearly needed.



I'm looking forward to having time alone tomorrow to process the latest.
