[Friday writing] Argh, i've spent the morning cycling through "input," half-way starting an email to city council about development, avoiding some Difficult meeting emails. There are people of Freecycle who want things i have.
The past couple of evenings i've gotten to bed fairly early, so that's a win. The asthma from the bronchitis is tiring.
Having my sister journalling here has been interesting. We talk often, but not quite daily. She is journalling in a manner similar to how i do (working through things that are troubling), and as those things happen to be my parents, i'm getting more frequent updates on things that trouble me, that is, my mother overworking herself when she has pneumonia. Since she's the sibling in most proximity to our parents she probably carries too much worry about them: maybe this will help by letting me carry some.
Care Check-In
Have i been using those tools that i know make my life better? (Or that i'm experimenting with?)
◊ be aware of joy and abundance (1): I have focussed more on trying not to overdo, expect too much. How may i take joy in my limitations, see abundance in the scarcity?
√ be aware of transitions (joy/flow/meander) (1):
◊ respond to weekly journal prompts & health chart (1): missed H morning's care check in & chart as i slept in. Revising process this week: new chart, new check-in, initializing goals. Wish i had done W am response to Queries.
◊ care for physical health - supplements, treatments, adaptions (1): initial supplements are being consumed. Mood and motivation being tracked as "normal" -- ought to add energy. Haven't roomba'd in week.
◊ exercise or "work break walk" daily (1,4): 50% "work break walks; the asthma makes exercise unappealing
√ use "emotional hacks" [1] to avoid paralysis (1,4):
◊ balance expressive creation, nurturing, and consuming others' (5,6): I feel my consumption is again shifting to something more intentional,although energy for nurturing and creating isn't present
√ ruthlessly delete cruft (1,4,6):
Thinking about these:
√ ◊ X keep up with to-do's without overwhelming self:
√ ◊ X use mental/emotional bookmarking:
√ ◊ X identify yams [2]:
