- I’ve been feeling so out of my element this week, but one of the meetings helped bring me back. Glad to be home
- So glad my parents arrived safely
- My work doesn’t define me but a well run meeting might
- Had a wonderful dinner with Amanda and watched the Attack on Titan series finale, what a great day!
- Today was my second to the last yoga sessions, as I contemplate the positive side to endings. Finally met up with Mike after so many years
- I have so much to be thankful for on this birthday. The tough part is realizing and embracing this love that I do have over the lie that I don’t that’s deeply etched into me.
- Presentation went well today, and glad it wasn’t as meeting packed as usual
- Ian made a really nice miso soup with veggies and added noodles for dinner — so yummy!
- Had a leg cramp during the night that affected my ability to walk for the early of the day. I’d always know a cramp is happening seconds beforehand too — so strange.
- My cramp prohibited me from running. It’s been a while since my last run
- Today finally felt like my proper birthday, as it was wonderful to enjoy dinner with my friends
- Journalling is something I sometimes dread doing at the moment, but never regret having done afterwards
- It was tough to get through the workday with my cold, so I might actually take a sick day tomorrow
- The sick day gave me a needed opportunity to restore, which allowed me to not only relax but work on things that can further alleviate stress
- I’m taking a new stab with the BuJo daily log with Interstital logging — basically logging down my notes and todos throughout the day in-between context switching. It’s taking a bit to get used to, but I think it will really expand my use case to be able to capture more progress to make my BuJo even more meaningful
- Work meeting consumed the entire day and nothing ever seems to be good enough
- First day of cutting out caffine and it sucks. I am entirely burnt out at work and thank goodness for the break next week
- With Ian’s help we changed the car’s headlights! Though difficult, it was not impossible — there’s a life lesson in there somewhere
- It was nice to be in yoga today. Part of me will miss these Sundays, but the other part is looking forward to shaking up the routine!
- Met Ian’s friend and her new, cute puppy! Felt nice to not be working and be able to unwind at Japantown. Got sushi from Nijiya for dinner
- Spent most of the day cleaning the apartment — it’s not something i love but I do love the feeling after the errand is finished
- Saltburn was a better movie than I thought. Did an evening Yoga session and it was similar yet different, which led me to use “Familiarity” as my intention for that session
- Thanksgiving went really well this year, and Dad liked Ian’s cookies and roasted potatoes.
- Parents had a really good first day in our Monterey trip, and I’m really thankful for Ian’s kindness and patience on this trip
- Parents were over the moon to see the giant waves crash onto the rocks at Point Lobos! This has been a good trip
- We went to a different hiking trail than planned and I was very impressed with my parents’ hiking abilities
- Finally went home and relaxed after a wonderful trip and Thanksgiving long weekend
- First day back at work is always a rough transition
- The chicken porridge Ian made was really nice
- It’s always good to talk to my oncologist. She is so upbeat and optimistic.
