I’ve been going jogging by myself more often and I try to speed-walk/jog with a couple women in my neighborhood – but they only go 3 times a week. I’m making progress, though!

How I did it
It made me
peaceful 
How I did it: I didn't really do anything but keep going as I had been. I guess I'd just been trying to make better and better decisions for years. One day a few days ago I was thinking about how I used to hate everything and realizing I didn't anymore. I realized it was because I didn't hate myself anymore. To cut a long, self-involved philosophical discussion (with myself) short, I realized that while I may not love myself yet… Read how I did it…
It made me
How I did it: I don't really know, but now I'm sort of working on two stories. One is just about a legend I've been sort of obsessed with since I was a kid, and one actually came from a dream I had. So one's fantasy, one's science fiction. Never thought I'd write science fiction, but I guess it's more romance than sci fi. Actually, never thought I'd write romance either... but that's ok! Read how I did it…
It made me
feel accomplished
How I did it: Bought paper mache spheres, painted them white, painted designs in black, wrapped the gold loops attached to the spheres in white thread, attached thread to ceiling... probably more simple than I'd do it next time. Read how I did it…

framed some, a few more to go… I just need to get the ‘library’ set up in our loft, then hang the pictures.

It’s beyond ridiculous. I’ve realized I’ve got these stacks of ‘important’ things I want to save… and I never look at them. I occasionally look for a recipe, but that’s about it. Time to dump the trash.
Except I’m giving myself a lot of time because I’m emotionally attached to stuff.
