Journal

Today is the second day of feeling not sick, per-se but sore. Sore and tired. I

spent most of yesterday morning feeling really low energy and like I had just

finished a really long run. My energy picked up in the evening, but then I fell

asleep on the couch reading quite early for me.

Now this morning feels damn similar. I'm tired and sore and just kind of want to

lie down again. I'm not sure what accounts for feeling this way. I am glad

vacation is right around the corner.

None of this is helped by the fact that I have fallen off my task wagon a

little. My org files have not been as helpful for reminding me of things, and I

have not been as diligent about adding things as I have in the recent past. I

think I need to hit reboot and try again in the new year.

Last week, Ariel gave me a thank you note at the CMT meeting. I finally opened

it today and it was a delight to read. She had resigned herself to not getting

quality poultry this year for Thanksgiving. Being able to not just get a local

turkey, but also help in the slaughter had a major impact on her. It's nice to

be able to help people like that. I sometimes get caught up in my own head and

tend to think of myself as pretty selfish. I am. But I also believe in giving

and doing the right thing by people when I see it, and that makes a difference.

Thinking a bit about what I wrote above, I wonder if part of what I'm feeling

right now is a lack of focus. There are objectives at work, and on the

selectboard and on the ME200 committee and on the CMT. But I don't feel

ownership over a lot of it right now.

What I need to do is sit down and make a list of things that need to get done

for the various responsibilities I have and make sure I not only am getting

things done, but that there are tangible milestones where I'll know I'm making

progress. Even if the milestones move or change, just having them would be a coup.

---

After another slow start to my day things picked up nicely. I watched a few

episodes of GoT with Emma while ostensibly working. I actually got more done

doing that than I had in a while sitting downstairs. I think there's something

inherently distracting about being by myself.
