Build your own enthusiasm

I'm feeling burnt out at work. We're doing some "dont drop our channels" shuffle, complete with 2 hour meetings that seem to go nowhere.

I've realized that I need to make sure I bolster my own enthusiasm or my unique intelligence and contribution.
I've become aware that that part of me feels neglected. This has led to low energy, avoidance and procrastination.

For a while now, several weekends in a row, I've given up on my own plans, usually a bit of fun I'm trying to get, like a bike ride or watching The Dirty Dozen with Malachy. This has a cumulative effect on my mood and my ability to be patient, focused and productive.

Test if Typing Speed of Journalling

Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you, tomorrow I’ll miss you, remember that I’ll always be true.

And then while I’m away, I’ll write home every day, remember I’ll always be with you…

I think that I can, even with my limited typing speed/skill, still write faster with the keyboard than with the pen.

Not sure if it’s because I choose to use the damned dip pen, because I am so weird and curmudgeon-y, or because the keyboard was actually invented so people could communicate with words, faster than any other method.

Race to the Whitehouse

I am SO not going to write about politics.

Playground

Ran around playing monster, painted the kids faces, took Maudie on the slide. Had great fun.

Dana took Maude home. Malachy and I hung out for bit longer then went to lunch with Chris, Arlo, Olive, Petra, Ella and Candella.

Malachy and I walked home. He was tired but we really had a good time. I passed out, Dana and the kids went out.
