Was given a note from my partner today. I'm not sure how I'm feeling after reading it. I know what is being expressed but my knee jerk reaction wasn't to their desire. My reaction was self centered. I haven't spoken or seen them since reading it. I'll read it again at lunch and before I go home. Really need to consider what to do with this information and decide how/if I should respond.
Stolen meme.
Consistency is not having 100% every single attempt, consistency is giving all you got every single attempt. Some days you might have 0.0001% to give. That’s okay! That doesn’t mean you won’t be successful. Consistency, success, healing, none of these processes are linear how we think they are.
Give it your best shot, that’s the most anyone can do. Maybe yesterday wasn’t your best day. That’s fine. At least you showed up. That’s the only thing we can ask of you.

I didn't very good last week. Not sure what happened. I had to go back to understanding why I want these things. Took the oldest to a splatter room. They seemed to enjoy it. It helped me get out of my head. Work is picking up and going to be taking a lot of time. Did five 12 hr sifts last week.
Today: 1/25/2025
I'm up. Calf cramping like hell. It's ok.
Plan:
Dishes,
Laundry,
Trash out,
Workout,
Fishing.
I want something fun today.
Today: 1/9/2025
I did nothing I was supposed to except 20 mins of physical activity. Laundry not dishes are piled up but damn it, I should have done it. So cold, so tired when I got home.
Reflection: I don't like the intellectual work of being a student. It makes these classes so hard. I'd rather be doing the physical work.
Tomorrow:
Complete one paragraph of assignment. Complete step goal. Put away laundry. One load of dishes and put away. That should be enough to keep things consistent with out over burdening my broken brain. Caffeine will help.
Today: 1/4/2025
For the first time in my life I rented a drained snake. Amateur plumbing. My body is tired. I've gotten way too fat and weak. The laundry room was backing up into the house. The kitchen sink was backing up into the house. I'm filthy and need a shower.
Reflection: Apart from money, I don't know why I put this off for 2 weeks. I feel accomplished. My body hurts and I feel weak. I feel relieved that this task is done. I feel encouraged to do something else. It might not be today but I have to do something else in the house. The list of things I have to do is way too long. And my body is so weak.
Lesson learned: Just do the things. Take 20 minutes everyday and do something for your body. 20 minutes everyday, something to make your body better.
Ok. Long time since I've posted.
I had some great weeks working out three times a week. Awesome!
Not so great with house work and even got behind in school work. But, I'm caught back up and trying to maintain again.
Let's see how this week goes.
What am I doing?
Emergency after emergency the last few weeks. Have I really not been paying attention?
