Done yesterday (20120309 Fr)

[mdlbear]

It doesn't look as though I got much done yesterday. That would, however, be somewhat misleading. I applied for Medicare (which should kick in next month), spent a lot of time talking with Naomi and Colleen (and a while on the phone with my Mom, who is very supportive and encouraging), and made some tough decisions largely as a result of those conversations. Not time wasted by any means.

On the other hand, my left wrist hurts. Don't know what I did there. And no walk. Self-care is going to be important over the next few months, so I'll have to work on that.

Oh, and I made up a new tag: 8.3% (which, in case you're wondering, is the current official unemployment rate). And several to-do sub-lists. And sent email asking which of several items in my office that I want have depreciated enough for me to just take home. And started going through my home directories on various systems, doing triage.

As Samuel Johnson said, "The knowledge that one is to be hanged in the morning concentrates the mind wonderfully."

re self care: our community pool and fitness center opened Thursday, and I've done an hour of swimming and aqua ex daily 3 days in a row (and today figured out I can't use the recumbent stationary bike, but could walk on a 1 mi/hr treadmill for about 3 minutes)

Go you! I got in about 1.5 miles of walking today. Which isn't all that much, but it's better than nothing.
