mondaytuesday
It’s the day after a holiday, so my whole work week timing is off. I’m still mellow from the weekend and getting a lot done, both fun and practical, but my 5a.m. dream keeps niggling at me to pay attention. I was drving on a road that disappeared, landing me in an interesting, but very dark woods, with a construction guy pointing to the side, saying, “there’s a couple jobs over there.” That should be my wake-up call, literally, the clarion call of Get Going, but still, I feel myself just sauntering along with an it-will-work-out attitude that is somewhere between faith and denial.
So while I’m reading about how great it is when plans come together and that you can’t live a dream without having a dream, and all the other wonderful advice out there, I’m making a list in my head.
1. Do one thing to wrap up my job.
2. Do one thing to work towards a new job/career.
3. I learned one new word: flense.
4. I found an old word I had used once in an essay: moldering.
So this isn’t the greatest list in the world, since I went from an action check-off list to things that made me happy. That’s just how my brain works. For you organized folks, I should really make #3 Learn a new word – read something interesting, and then I could put Flense and Moldering under there with nice little checkmarks.
And maybe on tuesdaywednesday, I will start my list in the morning, and it will be organized and I will check things off and it will be another good day.
