20 of 100 ... To Dream, perchance to Sleep


Saturday was supposed to be full of activity ... and I could not rouse myself from slumber. Yes, when I did finally wake, I was very well rested. But, was it necessary?  Am not going to stress over it - it's done.  Move on. 

Day's Report: 

Habits:
- Clean Sink: yes
- Cups of Water:4
- Hours of sleep: more than 12
- Meds: yes
- Reading: no

 
Goal Advancement for today:

R: I went to KA's birthday party, late, but I did go.  I also reached out to VG and made lunch arrangements and spoke to JS for about 3 hours.  

H: slept a lot 
(E-Environment, H:Health, F:Financial, PA: Prof/Personal Development, R: Relationships.) 
 

Gratitude:

1/ I'm grateful for being able to sleep, sad when nothing's that pressing, but good when I can use it for this. 
2/ I'm grateful today for the invite to KA's birthday party and to RA for the prodding to get off my duff and go!
3/ I'm grateful today for feeling better.  I've struggled with going to the hospital, wondering if the pain I was feeling justified a hospital visit or not, but today was actually good and had very little pain. So, I've chose not to go ... for right now. 
4/ I'm grateful for the 3+ hr conversation with JS.  He is coming to terms with the end of his career, that he can never do again what he once did, where he found his identity, his passion, his love.  Part of me is concerned - this is one of the happenings that contributes to suicide.  The loss of passion, loss of identity, utter change that is beyond control, isolation and loss of connection.  I read this and when I did, I saw my life in these traits.  I know I will not go to the end of that path, but JS has a history of depression, greater than mine and my family. 
5/ I'm grateful for my Fitbit ... it's going to be fun assessing my level of health and then seeing ways to improve upon it!
