Take good care of my self (read all 3 entries…)
It's so hard 5 months ago

It’s so hard when your routine just changes on you. Things got so bad that I had to file for bankruptcy. Then on top of that, my work hours got cut down to almost nothing and had to file for unemployment benefits. Then I was disqualified before I even got my first check. Now I have to re-appeal. It sucks, all the paperwork and all, but in the end it’s important for my family’s well being. I’m going to take my own advice when things where going well. I’m going to write down what I’ve always wanted to do and write a schedule doing it. Then I’m going to try to make it habit. I’ll write back in a week. to see how things went.



Quit Smoking (read all 5 entries…)
Still down to about one a day 5 months ago

So, I’m still down to about one a day. I’m kind of wavering between fully quitting and just having the occasional cigarette. I’m trying the approach of everything in moderation. I know it sounds awful, but I just can’t force myself to repress. It just makes me want more, more, more. I asked a friend who lost weight in the Marines and asked him how they did it. He said everything in moderation. I think I’ll begin to try that. I think I’ve gone wrong with the all-or-nothing approach.

It's submitted, Finally! 5 months ago

I’ve finally submitted the project to plan check. I got paid for it. Now I’m just waiting for comments. I’m going to knock this one out of the park as soon as I get it. I’m just waiting for the pitch.
