Learned: When Dan “Replies All,” with his Daily Communication, his words post on my blog page. Parents are now getting interested in Amazon Prime for the TV options. The climate of central Oregon was good for me, but Alfalfa crops would be a problem. Amazing multiple mountain views from Redmond; Three Sisters, Bachelor, Jefferson and Hood, all in one skyline.
3. Uncles and Aunts and Cousins. Space to be human, offered and received. Cooler days. 3.
Seems: Like I’m never going to catch up on my Precision Nutrition coaching program. (But I will.) Like I’m going to open registration late because of reasons and excuses. Like Tuesday calls will interfere with walking and shopping, or vice-versa. Like it’s been days since I’ve seen anything but Caucasians, except on TV.
*New Habit(s): That new one I still don’t know. Plan Ahead. Healthy Fats. Smart Carbs. Lean Protein (at every meal). 5 colors a day. 80% full. Slow down. Make time. Breathe.
Accomplished: Amazon Prime and Firestick research. An extended family weekend where I reconnected with many, surfacy as it may be. A new way to braid my hair super tight that stays for days, even though it gets a bit like a rat tail after days two.
Thinking about: Walking around Safeway with my mother as exercise. Tomorrow, today is my day off. Feeling pestered by the thread of bad men’s group communication. Tamale Pie and refried beans. And Ice cream, but that’s not for me. I’m still playing.
Q: What if I made this easy? OR What is there to give up?
Mine: Yeah, giving it up constantly while experiencing relative peace, but conversations are easier to give up when there is no predicted negative impact to my ending responding to thoughts. I linger over things and say, “I should stop this before it goes too far.” What I want to give up is having to be this kind of watchdog. Let people screw up in communication/marketing. It will be good for them. I’m no longer the snark police.

Reading: Same as before, only not reading. Too much going on.
