Axiel Posted June 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 3-June-2017 Not much to really report - quiet day at work (only one here - just the way I like it). Both kids out and about for the evening. SO activity seems on the decline in the area, must be concentrating on some of the weaker squads or solo rebels.

Axiel Posted June 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 Boss Battle: Own your Vulnerabilities. Here are the 3 lists of vulnerabilities I've currently identified as part of this to eventually work on and try to eliminate. Partly to keep me accountable, but also to serve as a reminder of what I need to focus on. Physical: Shoulder pain (suffered frozen shoulder in both shoulders at separate times, that still causes extreme pain in the left) - continued physical therapy to build and strengthen these areas to relieve the pain Soreness after walking / exercising. Even after walking for 30+ days, my legs are still sore the following day. Need to find out if that's normal, or what I need to do to help alleviate that. Just getting started on the actual workouts and building them into a habit. No problem with the walking, but I have some kind of mental block about just getting up and 'doing it'. Nutritional: Family eating - more along the lines of continued snacking, and poor eating habits within my family. Working towards a slow adoption through watching my efforts and determination to stay with what I'm doing. Small steps, I won't force anyone to do anything they don't want. Low variety of quality food available - mostly on the veg side of things, alot of the 'good' produce is either very expensive, or not readily available. Have started doing more gardening and looking into and indoor aquaponics system to grow more of my own foods. Limited time to prepare - not as serious an issue, but sometimes it would be nice to just sit down and eat without having to make something fresh everytime. (Just need to work on doing some advanced meal prep - becomes easier once some of my meal choices become more popular with everyone else in the family) Mental: Lack of motivation - Need to continue working on building my system of habit building. RH has been extremely beneficial with this, especially the support and team-spirit from my squad and division. Don't want to do it - not sure really how to describe this, more like apathetic, sometimes just get this overwhelming urge of I really don't care, or my recliner rocker looks really, really, really comfortable. Fear of ridicule or others opinions - I have a pretty thick skin, but other peoples opinions still bear way to much weight in my own self-image. Meditation & mindset work are my tools to help overcome this at the moment. Quote Stan -------------------------------- 'He's an IT guy, but like, with superpowers' Origin My Log Link to comment
Axiel Posted June 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 4-June-2017 Spent the day at work again, managed to get the backyard mowed. Pretty quiet in general again. Did get my Vulnerabilities mission done (as in the last post). Focus for the upcoming week is going to be start working on the physical activity missions and finish basic training. Waiting to see this months new campaign.

Axiel Posted June 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 5-June-2017 Fighting a weird phenomenon with my blood sugars - I 'think' I had a vial of Lantus (long acting insulin) go bad, I've had to bolus to correct highs far more than I'm used to, and sugars are just generally staying higher than normal, even though I've been feeling pretty good overall. I've taken the plunge and jumped back on the executive of a local youth support group - I was pretty involved for several years (secretary, treasurer, vice), while my kids were the age that they would attend. But for the last two years I had taken a step back from active involvement, partly due to the fact my kids were no longer interested, but also due to some personality conflicts, maybe not necessarily personality, but a distinct sense that the organization was being pushed in a direction I didn't believe it should be going. I knew their annual general meeting was coming up, and spent some time reflecting on what my goals are, and being able to actively help and participate in supporting and empowering the youth in our community ranks pretty high up there. I had previously really enjoyed working with them, and gotten a great sense of accomplishment whenever we saw some of the kids succeed at something they thought they couldn't, so decided to attend the meeting last night and see how things have been going. Long story short, I'm now the new vice-president of the organization. The individual I had previously had conflicts with is also on the board executive, and we had a good discussion about our goals, and discovered that they are not that far apart, although our methods might differ, so I think we can work together to bring about some positive changes overall. I'm also going to evaluate my time commitments, and possibly resume facilitating one of the programs (A Robotics / Geek night program), that I had run for 3 years. I was asked if I would take it back over, and I'm already pretty sure I'm going to say yes... Yeah, a pretty positive day.

Axiel Posted June 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 6-June-2017 Pretty quiet day, kept up with all my missions - helped my daughter get her courses picked and enrolled in for the fall. Works been good, busy though. Not much to reflect on today, other than I really wonder about people that think taking a cold shower is a good idea.

Axiel Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 7-June-2017 On the road for work today - site visit to one of our offices. Picked up a new project while I was there, so that's good - always nice to have something to keep me busy on at work. Also checked out a car my daughter was interested in buying, but probably going to pass - a little more damage & wear than was really expressed in their FB post. I'm going to take some time and do some preliminary program planning for the youth group program, give me an idea of what I might work on.

Axiel Posted June 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 11-June-2017 Bit of a sore back last couple days - been managing some walking, but no real workouts involving any bending or twisting. Better today, will try some stretching, maybe interval speed walking on Monday. Nice weekend, spent good part of Saturday baking some low carb breads and treats for future eating Went to see the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie with the family tonight too.
