Oddly...She Should Sleep More

I started the day off strong. I got a lot of laundry done, and was powering through cleaning the house. I took a break to run a few errands, and when I returned my wife was up. I have now discovered that once she gets up, my brain takes that as a cue that it is time to stop working on things. I'm not sure if that's due to the lack of time I get to spend with her normally, or if it's because once she's up I can no longer surprise her with any additional progress. It's very odd, though.

Grinding Onwards

So, this weekend was Samara's wedding. It was a very lovely affair, and I met some very nice people. Today it was back to the grind. The construction crew was pounding on my wall for a good portion of the day. Then none of the kids I sent for showed up like they were supposed to! Hopefully, tomorrow goes more smoothly.

PSAT Schedule

Today was the day for the PSATs at work. That meant a very weird and different schedule. As a result, testing was a great big nope! Instead, I got a bunch of report writing done. I also chatted with Brandon about a student he had worked with in the past. It was nice getting to chat with him. Perhaps I can set up a day when me, him, Cece, and Aaron can get together for drinks or something!

Sore Legs and Insane Brain

Well, my legs are sore because I've earned two medals in the past week. On Thursday I earned the Eternal Glory 4 Miler and on Sunday I earned the Platform 9 3/4 K. Tomorrow, I am planning on earning the Adipose 5K medal. This is important, because I have another medal on its way here, and then two more coming at the beginning of next month.

My brain is going insane due to the sheer amount of work that I need to accomplish before the end of this month. I really think I might need to log some extra time in the office this week.

I also need to do some serious prep work for NaNoWriMo. I need to have my house super clean. I need to get caught up on the laundry. I need to finish the first draft of Matroyshka and finish revising Switched. Then I need to get caught up on all of my HEX classes and get some work done on my HOL classes as well. I also need to figure out what I'm doing about my NCSP certification. Finally, I need to plan out meals and snack for November, create a shopping list, and get as much prep done as possible. Oh, and I need to create a workout plan and a writing plan that I can stick to during November. Finally, I have to get things settled down at work. That is a definite must. Oh, and I still have like, 70 books checked out from the library that I need to read ASAP.

October 1, 2017

Well, today is going to be very busy. I have a lot of time intensive stuff on my to do list. I need to clean the house, do the laundry, prep dinners for the month, and bake breakfast cookies. Hopefully, I will have time to work on my own stuff as well.

I ended up getting the chicken marinades prepped, and a little bit of the laundry taken care of. I also got some reading done, and watched Kingsman again.
