Highlights: Tackled a slew of tasks Sunday at home. Hanging a rack to hold some of the vintage menus on the wall per Jen's suggestion, adjusting the front sprinklers so as not to spray his car per Tommy's suggestion, assembling a table for use beside the BBQ, setting the French planter under the window [
temporary foundation until time or circumstances allow for an upgrade], replacing batteries in a dozen or more candles and a handful of other tasks. We got an impromptu invitation from Jon and Cheryl for dinner, and I tasted all three of the Sangiovese wines they brought back from Italy. The differences between the three were incredible, and it was a blast, although a violation of my keto initiative to do so. This morning Lucky got to reunite with Aussie up the street. Jen made an excellent breakfast for us with Chicken sausage cooked in a waffle maker! Today's work day was another 12+ hour one. I have to pull the leash more than I should on some people, and I'm pissed that I have to do so, but I'm not yielding at this point. Matt B dropped by to give us a Harbor Freight Inside Track card, he was in the area, but I was in a meeting. Tommy used it to buy a floor jack. I'm glad he did since he works on his car frequently, and this gives me a sense of added safety when he does. He also changed my CRV's oil, and it runs a lot smoother because of it.
Accomplishments: being fully engaged at work even though I'm overwhelmed.
Goals: Getting up a bit earlier so I have more time for morning routines.
Anticipation: Phone appointment with Kaiser tomorrow.
Gratitude: My daily mediation ritual is solidifying again, as are the habits that help me focus on success.
