listening to: indigo night - tamino
the "good things" post already outlined big items from this week. the health consult thing on tuesday really wrecked my week, just by how out of the ordinary it was. routine out the window, needing to recover from the people-ing and figuring out a new place etc. i'm really happy things are moving forward and are relatively simple! but yeah, the next steps will be similarly disruptive. there was a lot of downtime gaming - diablo with partner, stardew with a friend, and baldur's gate with a whole group of us.
i've been doing really well with not being stuck and passive. turns out it helps when i'm simply writing down what i did. i want that list to look good/satisfying. to be happy with myself at the end of the day. i want to put as many "valued" items on it as i can. and the caddy is helping keep my desk tidy, somehow that's motivating too? being able to so easily do One Valuable Thing gives me the starting spark to do more.
the "compass" is working. i've been exercising for my core almost daily. chest opening stuff, resistance bands etc. and as i wrote on mastodon recently - i'm also trying to do some more intellectually stimulating things. expose myself to more/new ideas. i think i'll manage to wrap up letters to a young poet today and i'll try some baldwin next. and then in september i want to try camille paglia.
no takers so far for this week's tarot readings, i might just write an example/practice reading up instead to put up here on the blog :)
