do a vipassana meditation retreat (read all 2 entries…)
looks like it's going to happen 13 months ago

i’ve been accepted to the Nov 12-23 retreat in georgia. i’ve cleared it with work. i need to line up some pet sitting, but it looks like this is going to happen. i’m not sure how to prepare myself for it, beside spending a bit of time sitting. i’m most afraid that my hips and back with give me grief sitting in meditation for hours on end. i want to be off caffeine and booze and able to sit comfortably for an hour before i go.

still cutting down 13 months ago

i’m mixing decaf into my regular beans, up to about a 3 to 1 ratio of decaf to regular and feeling pretty good. last week kinda wore me out. just felt very sick and exhausted. but today, i seem to be over the hump and have a lot more energy. sleeping better and stomach feels good.

drank tonight 13 months ago

not sure why. i just felt like such total shit today, all day long. i mean i just felt sick – terrible backache, sore throat, just felt weak and sick. i also felt lonely and awful and the drink did help in its way. i feel less like crap, physically at least. feel a bit disappointed with myself, though.

i didn’t take care of myself the way i should have today. the plumber was here ALL day. literally all day. so i didn’t feel comfortable just taking to my bed, which i should have done. i’m obviously sick. and now i’m waiting for my husband to come home from his business trip and just feeling really lonely and alone. also still feel physically pretty bad. i hope nothing is seriously wrong with me… i’m actually kind of worried about that.
