Five Things for a Sunny Tuesday
Tue, Sep. 20th, 2011 10:39 am1) I go to the doctor today for a post-accident check-up. I'll be talking to her about the foot, the body soreness, and the driving anxiety. That last issue is a bigger one that I realized.
2) Today I start on a new project for Night Shade. Without a day job, doing this freelance job will be easier and will go more quickly than the last two. I wish I could have been more lickety-split for the two writers I've worked with for a while.
3) On the subject of freelancing, I have been more seriously considering going that route fulltime. With my financial phobias, it scares the hell out of me, but I am feeling more and more like I myself am the only employer I can reliably depend upon. I'd have to create multiple streams of income. Figuring out how to do that could be challenging in an interesting way. We'll see.
4) The foot makes it hard to walk any distance. I feel like I'm losing all the fitness I've gained the last few months with the walking and jogging. I feel like a slug. I need to figure out how to fix this, because this sitting-around stuff is deadly, especially with these last, pretty days of summer upon us. I want to walk! I want to run! Bleargle!
5) More decluttering to do today. I didn't do a lot yesterday, but it was enough that I can see the difference. The trouble is, the easier decluttering is always what gets done first--getting rid of supermarket circulars and mailed advertisements, putting away things that have a designated place, and so on. It's the harder stuff--the stuff I want to have to hand--that is always more challenging and involves my lazy, lazy problem-solving skills. Will work the brain today and try to make another substantial step toward organization around here.
Post-script: I really need a proper desk chair. Seriously.
