Learned: SF’s Proposition 64 legalized the recreational use of marijuana and also cleared the way for people convicted of marijuana charges to petition courts to wipe out their cases or reduce penalties. DA being very awesome about it by going over past cases to undo, saving people time and expense of petitioning. All the city record stuff about the building/property I call home since 1997. 3. Bonus: Story behind “Doing A Land Office Business.” Another Bonus: Way of being practically nobody wants to be with is Imperious.
3. Having two rather impactful days followed by a mellow one. Being asked to do something interesting and experiencing ease in declining. Being The Registrar a thing of the past. 3.
Seems: Like I’m too tired right now to start anything new. Like I will never truly rehab. Like I am saddled with the job of caring for my caregiver, no easier option available, for as long as it takes. Like I could declare that a breakdown. 4.
Three Questions:
Ask “What if I made this Easy?”
Ask “What about this is REHAB?”
Ask “What if I made this Important?”
Desirable Habits that want to strengthen: (TOP THREE)
✔︎ Do things you normally wouldn’t do.
✔︎ Seek out and pursue opportunities for TRUE REHAB. (like Cooking)
✔︎ Embrace community while putting self-care first.
Note: If you start a conversation, establish a way to remember that it’s still active. (This is not happening, especially if they said something last and I haven’t followed up.)
Thinking about: It’s February, time for a new game, or at least new game structure. I have a trip Feb 15—March 1, not sure what to do about NB if he can’t function independently. How weak I am at being courageous & radical when it comes to habit-changing. 3.
On-purpose ways of being: Courageous, radical and confronting with forgiveness, peace, freedom and unconditional love in the background always.
Accomplished: Made it through January without significant financial breakdown. Actually taking lots of extra steps and losing weight. Ordered all the items that need replacing or replenishing, including printer paper, clear shower liner and fresh kitchen towels. 3.
Q: What are the benefits of a face-to-face meeting?
Me: First pass, eye contact, which is considered to be important, but isn’t that one of the ways we add one other to our lives? Oh, another question. Great. More on this later.

Watching: “Hoarders” on A&E (They kept making them) and “Philip K. Dick’s Electric Dreams” on Amazon Prime
Need to see if I can still read: “We Were Eight Years in Power – An American Tragedy” by Ta-Nehisi Coates, and “Hands of Life” by Julie Motz.
Clay:
Thank you for the link about “doing a land-office business.” While my speculation was semi-accurate, there’s nothing like being spot-on. I learned quite a lot from this and another post on America’s first interstate, which grew into U.S. 40, the highway that I grew up with in Dutch Flat!
