Today was a good day

I didn't really spend my time exactly as I'd planned to today, but I'm happy about a couple of things.

After sleeping late (recovering from working graveyard shift for a few days), I decided to get some work done.  I'm typically pretty productive when I telecommute, but I couldn't really focus today.  After sitting on the couch reading emails for a while I realized I was falling into an old trap...convincing myself I deserve to relax and subconsciously deciding that I'd be a lazy bum and watch trash on TV for a few hours.

For once I snapped myself out of it before total lethargy took over.  Roxy and I went for a walk, and that gave me a burst of energy so I came home and worked out for a bit (nothing too strenuous, but I felt refreshed after doing some Wii Fit yoga).

I went out back to "hurricane-proof" the porch, but gave up on moving everything inside after I uncovered a huge spider underneath a pillow on one of the patio chairs.  In some ways I'm a strong person but I think I'll always be a big baby about spiders.  Ryan's at work and my dad is in Mexico so there was no hope of me continuing that job :).

After that I turned on some music and got some painting done in our bathroom...it's coming along slowly but surely and it's gonna look fantastic when it's done.

I've spent more time on blogspot than I probably should've tonight, but it feels good that I've actually begun one of the many things I've been meaning to do.  I still feel pretty overwhelmed by life right now but I do feel like I made some progress today.  I have tons of things I want to talk about right now but I am going to tear myself away and settle for taking a few notes about what I wanna write about later.

I'm gonna grab a little snack, get some laundry put away, give myself a pedicure, and try to get to sleep at a decent time.  Goodnight!
