My big bold strategies for the second Monday of my job and apartment hunt were totally derailed yesterday. I feel like it is the governing pattern of my efforts to break out of my empty nest isolation. I go through life-robbing strings of empty days and the very moment I have actual plans, along comes the string of family crisis to re-format the whole biz.
Yesterday's event was the birth of my first grandchild. An all day event in another city. 4am to 11pm. I did not get home until the wee hours this morning. Ended in a c-section for mama and beautiful new dimples for the rest of the family. Family never picks convenient moments for its evolutions. Never seem to stick to plans, either.
Anyhoo...
Feeling like I need to get my Monday plans back on-line. Yuck. I feel like a mouse at a cat convention and do not even want to get out of this chair. Think I need another smoke and jo.
Anybody got some motivation to spare? I think I left mine in San Antonio.

I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying. I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there. I think that I will start writing in it again. It's so therapeutic.

First, I hope everyone is doing well, and continuing to fight that good fight! Keep up the great work on yourselves; I'm rooting for all of you!So, I started doing therapy at the beginning of the year, when I was in my most depressed state, but with my therapist, I made big changes and steps in the right direction. But, over a month ago, she couldn't take my insurance anymore, and I had to stop...
Motivation? I think you probably need another smoke and jo, and some rest. Having a baby is hard work for everybody. Smile and count your blessings! *smile* And then back to the effort with joy in the heart. Good luck! And congratulations again.
No more smokes and easy on the jo. Patience with yourself. What is the saying about making plans and life happening? You may not totally reach your dreams, but yah, I agree with everybody that this was a great detour.
Motivation wishes are going your direction.
Too hot for the jo this afternoon. A tall glass of iced tea be calling me. Puff puff.
Thanks guys!
gentle hug
might not be instantanious, might be a bit painful and rough, but the end result will definitely utilize those smile-dimples.
and for motivation maybe you might use how much you want to get out of your empty nest and empty days
