MandarisCan you tell when I got Covid?
I’m going to start writing down some end of the day questions. I’ve identified the following 3 that resonated with me.
- What went well today?
- What do I want to improve on for tomorrow?
- What is my favorite part of today?
Should
I’m someone who says a lot of things about self improvement. And I have to say that I’m a much better person now than where I was 10 and 20 years ago.
This doesn’t mean that I’ve hit all my goals but it does feel good to know that I have made progress.
Unfortunately, it feels like a lot of the things that were promised as the American dream are just outside of reach. That I’ve squandered a lot of the opportunity that was in front of me. I hurt myself with the word “should”. I “should” have a house. That house “should” be big and go with my luxury car. I “should” have an astounding career. I “should” be in great shape. “Should”, “should”, “should”.
The expectations hurt.
I’m reminded that I shouldn’t “should” on myself.
It “could” be worse.
I am grateful for the things that I do have in my life both material and not.
The ability to simply take this time to write this and see my thoughts is comforting in that I know that when the future me sees this…
Well, I don’t know.
But I do know that I will be kind and understanding that the present me was doing the best that I could.
I can’t find my notebook 📓 and it’s really throwing me off.
I just hit a high as far as weight and blood pressure is concerned. I’ve got to get back to my regular exercise routine.
I just spent the last two hours trying to get the meta tags working in micro.blog. I should push this kind of thing to the test blog.
Good idea @fahrni 🍺night!
Somewhere in this picture is a “gift” that my dog made.
Careful where you step.
Something about this felt sad and hopeful at the same time.
Still working on my Novel for NaNoWriMo….
Although very, very slowly.
