Daily check-in thread for March 21, 2008

Woke up earlier by 5 mins at 5:50 am.... I can't believe I used to wake up at 6:30. I guess the key is slow and small changes.

So, it's {10/11} for my 30-day challenge.

Yep, did yesterday. I will do a shortened version today, since I'm doing a morning vigil for Good Friday. Man, though, I have been >good.<

From the darkest day of the liturgical year,

Meditated last night.
No professional enrichment yesterday - migraine.
Completed C25K run session, and weights workout.

Considering taking next month "off" to consolidate the habits obtained in Jan/Feb/Mar. We'll see.

Gratitude and acceptance completed.

Meditated, somewhat distracted by cat playing with my blanket.

Yesterday was my scheduled vacation day. Didn't work out very well, because I was thinking all morning I should work instead, and did do a little work. Ultimately I didn't have the satisfaction of a vacation day or the productivity of a work day. Then today I had trouble getting back to work, and didn't meet my challenge. So I switched to another project for this afternoon, and did get the satisfaction of completing work that could lead to another project in the future. Unfortunately, that will be a scholarly project that is likely to pay very little, if at all, but I suspect that it will offer personal satisfaction, and that is meaningful.

Went for the run, but have missed gym this week due to a sprained region near the neck.

FAIL

Went from bed to coding ... didn't shave till later (which is still better than yesterday, but I'm off on a lot of things thanks to my new projects)

I come into this day with {13 of 20 for March}

Promise: 1 hour on accounts and finances

-"orcmid"

Complete. I end this day with {14 of 21 for March}.

Slipping. Wrote 300 words in the morning and meant to continue after work, but went for a drink with a friend and after such a long week was unable to stop at one. So that was the end of that! And I've been so good with the booze lately. Should have kept a vigil instead.
