Aug. 13th, 2009 10:31 amI am having a bad week. Nights filled with extended periods of sleeplessness. Days filled with attacks of self-doubt, second-guessing myself, and being overly sensitive to the ignorance and injustice in this world.
I think I need at least one day off the Internet. A bit hard to do that when my job is to do content writing for websites. I need the Internet to do my work. But Sunday is a day off and would be a good day to stay offline. I have plenty of unread books that need attention. I could pull out my paper journal and do some writing. I could even go pick up a small craft project and do that. The possibilities are endless.
Also - I need to think about planning a day trip for Lance and myself for our wedding anniversary. It's about 2 months away. There are so many places we could go. I thought about a day up at Deception Pass or something, but since the weather is so iffy that time of year, I don't know. We should plan to go someplace where there are both indoor and outdoor activities. We really lucked out last year and had a gorgeous day for our trip to Snoqualmie. We might not be that lucky this year. We keep talking about going to Leavenworth, but I think I would rather go at Christmas.
Anyway, I haven't gotten any work done today. I had a rough night last night. I was sleeping fine until Reece woke me up at 1:30 to go out. Afterwards, I couldn't get back to sleep. My brain turned on and I couldn't shut it off. I had to get up for an hour and 15 minutes or so and read until I felt tired again. And then I ended up sleeping in late this morning. So this day hasn't gone as planned. But the work will get done. Even if I have to put in a couple of hours on Saturday, it will get done.
