The first 5-10 minutes getting up at 6am are still tough. But the effort is paying off. Mentally, and hopefully with consistency, physically too. Before leaving the house I received an email that my preorder of "A Promised Land" was available in Audible. I listened to the intro and first chapter while walking, and another chapter this evening. It's excellent. I'm a bit overwhelmed by the volume of content I have available and I'm juggling three at the moment: Promise Me Dad, Greenlights and this. I don't know how people find the time to get through as many books as they seem to but I'm trying Made a mistake today trying to run Tommy to an LG shop and back on lunch hour. My bad, not his. My idea, not his. But best laid plans can go awry and I made a bigger deal about it than necessary. Stressful day, as more back/forth about custody changes occurred. Talked to my lawyer, took his advice, agreed to the compromise and Lauren starts 'true' 50/50 custody this Saturday. I have a lot of resentment about the degree of pushback on what I think is reasonable and/or logical, but I'm not dealing with somebody that is either, so I'm just going to stop dealing with them. A lot can and will change next year. Lauren's with us tonight/tomorrow and she/I did a meandering drive after dropping off some Costco stuff to my mom. It's good to get out, and I think I'm 'returning' to being up for doing so.
