Managing to maintain a reasonable routine during the SIP period by getting up early and not just sleeping in. Takes a bit of effort but affords me time to meditate, walk the dog, and not scramble into position for the work day. Made Tommy a Breakfast Croissant, later whipped up some excellent chicken salad, too. Lauren and I ran Scottie to the Meridian dog-park to go walking and he just kept wanting to retreat to the car. Got irritate as fuck at them about 'door slamming' and the tensions of the past weeks arose. Subsided but still, got pissed at them while driving Tommy to drop a thumb drive at his friends. Apologized later. Tommy had his own issues revolving around the boosted board and his mom. Rode it out. Tried to give him ideas. Drove them to Mount Umunhum before grabbing food at Whole Foods and dropping them at their mom's. The skies have been so clear. Enjoyed a Martin Ranch 2013 Nebbiolo and a bit of Maker's Mark while watching a movie called "Wallflower". Last min realization that I flaked on virtual GNO which sucks, but hopefully it'll be an ongoing thing on Tuesday PM's.
Gratitude: Kids that trust me enough to talk to me honestly.
Anticipation: Steaks and the rest of that Nebbiolo for dinner tomorrow.
Watched "Wallflower".
