take care of myself

I might need to work on this goal. It’s 7:23, and I’m still at the office. It’s been a rather trying day, editing a dissertation by a young person who has opted to argue with me about the changes that are needed. Not a good strategy.

We had a Come to Jesus conversation, in which I explained it to the student. I will stop work on this now, but I’m still sticky with annoyance.

These dissertations, committees, extra projects, etc., are making it really difficult to make progress on my grant. A pox upon external trials and tribulations!

• sleeping enough.
• watching what I eat
• getting more exercise than I get with riding.
• taking stretch breaks to keep from getting headaches
• accepting that I work slower now
• being with my kids
• being with what’s left of my family
• being with my friends
