scooby shooby

it's a good day. had a wonderful time with my family yesterday.

then went to work this morning and worked well.

came home and was tired as 'all get out' and made some lunch,

played with Blue and decided to do a quick errand before my 

11:15a online meeting with my therapist. She's great! I wasn't so

needing advice today but we had a good conversation...we talked

about the dichotomy of doing the things we 'should do' and doing the things

we 'want to do' - it was a mellow conversation - and lighthearted.

The talk was about finding a balance between those two things....

After the conversation - I decided to go to Starbucks for a Pumpkin Spice Latte.

My niece said she had gone for one - and she has one every year she said -

so I was inspired to treat myself...I came back home and crashed big time on the couch.

Slept a good hour or so...and then I decided to get up and buy myself some beer and cookies.

Not the healthiest choice - so I decided to just have a little. The cookies themselves were

kind of gross - too sweet and artificial tasting - I'll put them away or maybe throw them away.

I deserve better. I am not going to eat stuff that I think is gross. They were a Trader Joe's impulse buy.

The beer is one of my favorites. It's become a kind of acquired taste - and now I enjoy it

like a nice refreshment.. I had only one - I have no need to escape this reality - and one

is definitely enough. The rest will be for the rest of the weekend and week ahead!

Now I'm watching the PBS Newshour tribute to RGB. Such a loss.. my words are insufficient...

but admired her and her work.

I like how the Rabbi who spoke at one of her memorials said that a person who sees what's wrong

with world and can see and make the improvements to it, is better known as "as Prophet."

I hope you guys are having a good day... Sending hi fives, and knuckle and elbow bumps.

Have a good weekend!! Peace, Mark
