I got up before 730 and did two meditations. The second was excellent. It flowed into some of the subjects of the movie "Soul" which I watched last night. The meditation was about being conscious of your existence in a vertical sense instead of a horizontal, where horizontal is akin to a timeline and vertical is a single moment. I like it a lot. The movie last night was good. Abstract but good. I watched it a second time tonight before writing this, beause I wanted to revisit it and pay more attention to some of the nuances. I still consider "Inside Out" the best ever but this touched me in regards to the simple idea that life is not about a specific passion, it's about all of the collective moments and experiences. Lauren and I made a Denver omelette and ran a few brief errands. It was good to feel present throughout the day and even to the point that I felt a reasonable balance between 'doing something' and 'doing nothing'. Lauren likes to get out/go places and ahtough that's something I enjoy too, the pandemic, lockdown and blurred lines between 'weekends' means I want a balance and time to just do nothing, in contrast. Tommy was at the Gym for most of the morning and I found myself wanting to give him a chance to drive, get out with his sister and me, even for a brief trip. I want him to feel valued, and sometimes I think he doesn't. He remains a challenge when it comes to driving, taking direction, not making smart ass comments and just having some respect and appreciation. I told him as much, lecturing again that I'm not his enemy, the bad guy or somebody he needs to harbor resentment towards. I know it only goes so far but with repetition maybe it'll sink en enough to at least take root and grow in time. I did well managing returning to a healthier routine but did cave slightly in the PM when some ice cream broke my focus. Still, 80% successful sis better than 30% of late so I'll take that and build on it. I didn't get a walk or solo time but that will happened tomorrow for sure. Lauren's voiced continued concerns about Lucky's possible staph infection so I worked with her on coordinating a visit with Eric G. I sold the Echo devices today to a CL buyer and threw in the 3rd 'dot' and the 4 plugs I had too. Might as well. Feels good to be all moved to Apple, makes it much easier.
