miss_marissa Posted April 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2020 I have not been doing much the past few days just work and then really scrolling on my phone and laying on the couch. It snowed yesterday and rained the day before. Therefore lawn has not been mowed nor have I gotten outdoors much. think I might take some time off work. Feels pointless to take time off as I won't be doing anything, but also I'm not being productive while working anyways. probably need groceries in the next day or two. gonna see if I can stretch it til Monday with what I've got. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 5 Quote Current Challenge # 39 | #38 | #37 | #36 | #35 |#34 | #33 | #32 | #31 | #30 | #29 | #28 | #27 | #26 | #25 | # 24 | #23 | #22 | #21 | #20 | #19 | #18 | #17 | #16 | #15 | #14 | #13 | #12 | #11 | #10 | #9| #8 | #7 | #6 | #5 | #4 | #3 | #2 | #1 | Battle Log Instagram | Goodreads Link to post

That way it transforms from a terrible, low quality work day to a good, high quality rest day. And maybe a tiny, non-exhausting walk outside would help counterbalance the couch-laying-phone-scrolling?

So a pretty busy time for me (a blessing and a curse). Resting over the weekend helped. J and I got groceries Friday afternoon, which I know just one of us should have gone, but honestly I think it was really good for my mental health to go (instead of just J), and I don't think I could have gone alone. On the menu: apple and sweet potato hash pumpkin muffins cobb salad chicken salad cilantro lime burgers and fries black bean and mushroom enchiladas I also have fruit and then deli meat for sandwiches if needed. Finished reading: the whole Scott Pilgrim series Invisible Kingdom Vol 1 Feminist Fight Club Halfway through my workout program. It's still really cold and crappy out here, so I can't do as much outside activity as I'd like but I managed to get the brush and yard waste to the curb before collection today. Want to get ready for some landscaping at some point..... Spoiler I got my period Friday so that probably definitely contributed to my emotional messiness Trying to remember that I'm doing my best and my best right now is a different best than a month ago ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 5 Quote Current Challenge # 39 | #38 | #37 | #36 | #35 |#34 | #33 | #32 | #31 | #30 | #29 | #28 | #27 | #26 | #25 | # 24 | #23 | #22 | #21 | #20 | #19 | #18 | #17 | #16 | #15 | #14 | #13 | #12 | #11 | #10 | #9| #8 | #7 | #6 | #5 | #4 | #3 | #2 | #1 | Battle Log Instagram | Goodreads Link to post

miss_marissa Posted April 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 I've been struggling with reading lately. I think it's because reading a chapter of a comic or book still seems really daunting. Each issue/chapter itself is not bad, but knowing it is part of a full story is hard. I've had this collection in hardcover that I picked up a few months ago and haven't gotten around to yet. I opened it up last night and honestly it is JUST what I need right now. There is a phenomenal list of contributors (as tor.com tends to have...) and reading a complete story in ~20 pages is filling my need to read, but not as daunting as books or ongoing comics. 10/10 recommend short fiction collections/anthologies if you are in the same boat! Having the urge to go for a jog? but it's super windy and still not warm, so we'll see... I think I'm in a good enough place now where goals would be more beneficial to me as opposed to counterproductive. So here we go. 1) spend some time doing a handstand or a hang every day - seeing all the handstand challenges is making me want to work on this again 2) Change clothes before you go to work. Don't have to be "work clothes" (I did a really good job on this the first few weeks and lately it's been slipping, just been waking up and working in the same clothes I wore to bed until I do my workout) 3) Eat a fruit or vegetable with every meal - I have been doing this! But need to keep it up 5 Quote Current Challenge # 39 | #38 | #37 | #36 | #35 |#34 | #33 | #32 | #31 | #30 | #29 | #28 | #27 | #26 | #25 | # 24 | #23 | #22 | #21 | #20 | #19 | #18 | #17 | #16 | #15 | #14 | #13 | #12 | #11 | #10 | #9| #8 | #7 | #6 | #5 | #4 | #3 | #2 | #1 | Battle Log Instagram | Goodreads Link to post
