Not another day off
A daily application of negatives soon adds to a mountain of hindrance. From once that seems just like yesterday, in reality has taken over two months of justifiable "frittering" - wheels spinning , with little to show in way of results. Barely a finger in contact with earlier expectations.
Wife ill, then myself with breathing problems that have extended beyond my personal allowance of down time: reaching feelings of lethargy, "why bother? Another day off."
My "PopEye" stage has been reached. "I caint stands this no more" - Pass the Spinach". Christie has sensed something is happening, probably my reference to her as "Olive Oil" on occasion today.
I am better. I must be. I have tomorrow planned into 5x1 hour work periods. Refined from most important to least important; most urgent to least urgent. Non-negotiable. Still allows a good day to be built around this activity.
Today is still several hours from wasting. I am enjoying the feeling.

That's the beauty of life....always another day. Let's both make the most of tomorrow. Debbie
This comment is a bit late, but I hope that these days you are both so much better. Breaking your focus down into several parts of the day is a great way to get things done. In reality any really good focus and concentration time gets tasks done quicker than a few minutes here and there. Better than ohh... I wonder if I've got another email yet or what's the latest video on youtube? Before your know it half an hour or more time is wasted being side tracked.
