How much can I get done?

.

I can get a lot done. Or I could get very little done. Some aspect of the choice is very much mine, some aspect is not. If I begin to roll 'downhill', I get chances every once in a while to turn around and actually try to go uphill and get some work done. Little chances every half hour, hour, or several hours, like turnoffs on the time highway. While actually doing work, I do sometimes need to cool off. Any of those times, or if I simply don't want do to that next task, can see me ending up on my butt at home. Though, if I have had a string of successes, I actually, even after an extended break, tend to get back in the saddle more easily than cracking open that first couple of rounds of successful work can of worms. Still, and without any hesitations at all, I am far surpassing what I was ever able to do in Iowa except when on Ritalin.

To clear my head, I am writing out what I want to do soon and hopefully what of it I can today. After a shower and a shave, a trip to city hall is the first plan. I am trying to get an hour to wake up and get going after I write this. After that, a trip to both Lowe's and Sears. A visit to first definitely locate the outlet (I think I have a good idea where it is, but...) and then price shop some items and pick the brains of the people who work there. A call to my friend to see how he is doing. If he stayed overnight at the hospital, I am not sure when they will release him, if he is to be released today. A printer will be purchased and some ink cartridges returned.

I had a couple of boiled eggs for breakfast. I would like to find a place to have a rather small good lunch. Something a bit more fitting with my eating plans. The soup place might be a good way to go. Soup is one of those foods I have not explored well, and yet I know it has great potential in offering both great flavor and solid food stuffs. Soups never seem to fill me up though. There is something else about soups that... I do not know exactly. I do not trust? I am never sure I will like any single one? I do not know. Anyway, I will explore that today.

There may be other things on my list, depending on if I find a printer I like and am able to get it going. A couple of pages faxed out with it might be good. Some copying completed, both for my purchase rebate and for my survivalist file. And tonight is about time for me to contact the man who offered to help me finish moving. If he is still willing, I will of course be absolutely flexible about when to help, so cannot guess when the move would be finalized. I am also not exactly sure when to take my first hike. I know which hike I would like to take. Friday would be a good day, though after this week, a day off is good too. A day I do not have to drive anywhere is appreciated when it arrives. Saturday, earlier in the day, to prepare me for Church would be good if it does not wear me out too much. I think the hike might be doable after Church as well, though I worry about being half way through and having the sun setting. Until I know more, I will be a bit on the cautious side I think. The brain is just waking, so... nothing is sure yet on the more... unknown and heretofore unknowable aspects of planning.

I suppose, time to start waking. I best set a timer or... I might just sit. I might just sit anyway, but... Oh, I woke a bit after 8:00 this morning. I did have to use the alarm. I almost reset it for 9:00, but pulled free from that notion. I am still tired and food does not help. Though I think if I begin eating more lightly and regularly, food will no longer become a drag... I think.

You have a good day! Get over that hump if you want. Drag your lump over it and get what you want accomplished. If the mostly dead, very retired, lump of flesh in which I reside can be whipped into action, I am pretty sure anyone can do it. Again, good day!
