    I actually don't have anything SCHEDULED for after school today... I didn't sleep well, so I might just faceplant. But if I feel up to it, the weather's supposed to be lovely, and it'd be great to go for a nice, leisurely stroll in a park!

    Hour commitment - I won't eat again until after 5 pm. Can still have my metamusal before we leave. Also, I commit to not looking at my insurance for my surgery anymore until Monday. I can't change it and it's worrying me, but continuing to look at it over the weekend won't help. I have to remember it isn't finalized and it remains to be seen what I have to pay. Also, I commit to not looking anymore at my big fund until Monday.

    @PackerFanInGB - Thanks for the encouragement and the reminder that I need to take care of myself if I'm going to take care of others. I love the idea of your walking challenge - 365 days seems daunting, but I'm rooting for you! I really need to get back to walking on some sort of regular basis. Just being out in nature is good for my mental health, and the exercise is good for my heart. You've inspired me to get out there today and to try to keep it up this week :)

    It's been a while since I have set goals. Life has been really busy and I've let health slide again. Working on though. Was doing well with the workouts until the last few weeks. The weather got cold, and I got busy with work & life. My new job has me getting more steps than the previous one. Close to 10K a day instead of 4K a day, and usually at least 10 flights of stairs. On the down side, I tend to work later and have been traveling more. Soon work will settle and Sierra's race season will end and I won't be traveling each weekend. Funeral this evening for my bestie's mom. I wasn't sure I'd be able to make it, but I think I can swing it. It's 2 hours away, but it isn't until 7:00pm, with visitation from 4:00-7:00. If I leave here at 4:00 I can get there by 6ish and visit for a few before the service.

    JFT Tuesday

    13. Therapy thoughts: Prioritizing is hard. There is so much that feels important. I need to talk to my parents about end-of-life plans (particularly funeral arrangements) and I'm not sure how to go about it. I do somewhat trust that they are capable of deciding when they need assisted living but should probably offer help in finding out what sort of place would be best BEFORE it actually becomes necessary. How do you take the hurt out of caring? Identify what I want: to have my professional expertise acknowledged and given the respect it deserves, and to be taken as a legitimate authority.

    14. Just for fun: Start sketching dragon on a pile of books, offering one to the armored knight, & banner that reads "Treasure should not be hoarded / It should be shared." Use AI for ideas.

    WFTY: Priorities. Today is a hot mess. I have overlapping meetings and responsibilities. UGH.
    2020 WFTY: Progress. 2021 WFTY: Persistence. 2022 WFTY: Focus.

    It was so good seeing my bestie last night. I wish it were under different circumstances, but I miss her terribly. She was very excited to see me. Like I'd ever not be there for her...

    Got back late, and didn't sleep well which means I didn't get up early and go to the gym like I'd hoped. Making some changes to my training plan due to work conflicts and weather changes. Going to spend more time in the gym for a bit.

    Fun evening planned tonight. It's Trunk or Treat at church and I'm Face Painting for the event. The expectation is 50 kids, not sure I can paint 50 faces in 90 minutes, but I'll do my best. I'm far from a professional, but I do ok and kids tend to be forgiving. If I get cleaned up quickly enough, I'll try to make the end of trivia, but I'm not sure about that.
