Done yesterday (20090603)

( raw notes )

My main accomplishment for the day has to have been splitting the Tempered Glass concert at White Blossom, only two weeks after the event itself. OK, that's not all that great, but I still have recordings from a year or more ago that haven't been split up and posted. So go me anyway.

Since Tuesday's "being mindful" group session I've been trying to get back into the habit of meditation. I find that it's been comparatively easy to slip back into my old (from 40 years ago) habit of meditating while waiting for things like appointments. We'll see whether I can keep it up.

There's still a lot of muscle tension in my left shoulder; I'm going to try taking a rolling laptop bag today (for both the laptop and my shoulder bag) and seeing whether that helps. Sitting still and trying to be aware of my body seems to have helped, too.

The other major bit of news was Colleen ordering groceries from safeway.com to take some of the shopping load off me. I also felt free to go in to work in the afternoon, knowing that Ali was around to help with the shopping.

Who knows where the time goes?

Too often, I look up from whatever I've been doing and realize that if I'd wanted to go for a walk, or take a bath, or any of several other things I've been complaining about not doing, I should have done it an hour ago.

And that's not even counting work, errands, housework, or caregiving. Foo.
