As I look over this lineup of things I accomplished last week, I begin to feel kind of keyed-up. In the past, this has been a sign that my tendency to zip around is reemerging. And not necessarily in a good way. For what it's worth, here's the list:
- Completed Week 5 of Couch Potato to 5K Training--including much-feared Day 3!
- Finished Ghost Country, by Sara Paretsky; Steel Guitar, by Linda Barnes;
- Walked my grateful dog daily--really!
- Took my blood pressure daily
- Followed up w/ allergist appointment for teenager, which took 3 hours, and resulted in new asthma diagnosis & more meds
- Identified need for leisure & fun
- Arranged college visits for offspring
- Survived two part-time jobs for another week
- Attended one meeting; set up two more; missed one due to miscommunication w/ personal trainer (rescheduled)
- Fell asleep while napping toddler
- Wrote new poem
- Published 6 blog posts
- Decluttered kitchen/sunroom
- Meditated 3 times
- Attended 2 prayer vigils for homicide victims
- Deposited 3 miniscule paychecks, thereby settling small debt to teenager & resuscitating household checking account
- Began training in Harry Potter video game, under tutelage of highly skilled teenager; received medals for de-gnoming and dueling, and some wizard cards
- Watched first ever Super Bowl out of loyalty to family in New Orleans
- Scheduled trip to New Orleans
- Attended church; learned something I didn't know about Unitarian Universalism
- Exhumed my novel from its two+ years' computer internment; read through it; didn't hate it
- Found iPod, missing library audiobook, strap to heart monitor
So there it is, the ridiculous and sublime account of where my time went over the previous seven days. It seems, from where I sit, a bit all over the map. Perhaps I need to sift for frogs?
