  1. Morning musing....

    I sometimes get very frustrated with myself because I find a new shiny idea and go wholeheartedly after it, and then eventually, inevitably, I drop it. I don't remember it, I get out of practice. I still care about it, but it just isn't part of my everyday awareness.

    But you know what? Regardless of whether it's dropped out of my daily repertoire, I still have that skill set/interest/knowledge in the back of my head. It's like I just archived it or shelved it. It's still there. When I need it, when I want it, I can still use what I learned from that time of being interested. So it's really not a flaw, it's just a very wide-ranging library in my head. :)

  6. A weeks ago I accidentally left my meds in the car. The hot, hot car. In the middle of summer.

    And it's *very* clear the effect this has had on them.

    I have been at my least effective/productive and most tired for a week now, and it's killing me.

    I've wasted more time in a week than at least the previous couple months.

    And not wasted on relaxing or enjoying life - wasted on things that brought little joy or rest. Pure crap!

    Another week until the next appointment.
