check in april 7th

I was pretty distracted by 
t*ump & his civilization destruction threats 
I figured he would not go through with it
BUT 
I wasn't sure what he would do 

I feel like 
SOMEHOW 
this KINDA 
consumed my attention 

I had dreams 
BUT 
I could only remember 
right before I woke up 
SOMEBODY 
was right up in my face 
standing in front of me 
& SAID 

welcome elder

& it KINDA freaked me out 

I LOVE you VERY much sweetheart 
I'm gonna try to sleep now
goodnight

OFF

check in april 5th

I've been in a sort of liminal space all day
I decided I would rather sleep 
there was enough weather 
to give me a headache 
SO
I decided I would do qi gong
&
it was more difficult than I thought it would be 

I mean 
I'm not saying it was difficult 
I started with a very 
SIMPLE one

something about the stance
wasn't comfortable 
I kept having to 
stop and touch my toes
stretching out my back, I guess

& the funny thing is that I have been feeling MORE RELAXED 
I have a greater range of motion 
in my neck & shoulders & upper back
than I have memory of when

I'm not sure what was my problem 
I felt stiff & uncoordinated*

*I always want to put hyphens in these

I didn't do a lot of work on the room
physically just one project
BUT 
I walked around the space 
I did some pondering 

I made some postulated beginnings for rules
about what to throw away 
& what to donate
& what to keep 
to try to sell

I made some postulated orders of operations
for going through the things still in the room 
on the FLOOR and the CHAIR

I have this rug I didn't want to put down
after the apartment flooded
that I'm thinking 
WALL
that seems like a lot of work 
I've just about worked myself around to FLOOR 

this rug
I was driving around 
& this shop was going out of business 
so the rug was at least fifty percent off 
& I still had to talk myself 
into it it was SO MUCH MORE than my
COMFORT ZONE 

I'm not sure it's 
CALM though
it's this
KINDA 
burgundy--magenta wool kilim
with I wanna say
orange spikey wheels woven in with 
some white accents

ACTUALLY 
it MIGHT be TOO big for FLOOR

I'm unreasonably tired
for someone who didn't DO that much 

check in april 4th

I have to not forget to take my l-theanine
I've been forgetting 
& then I FEEL 
the ANXIETY 

I would naturally be like
NO, let me back up
there is sometimes a problem with doing the things & forgetting the self care
BUT 
when I have forgotten 
I become AWARE of it & take the STUFF 

I was thinking about it
I have USED the 
CRUTCHES
& NOW
I'm not EVEN really snacking

I haven't moved the needle on the picking
I'm watching the qi gong videos
I'm not YET doing the
stretches

BUT 
I'm impressing myself on the STUFF front
I'm trying to do a variety of things
to get at the CORE 
a SPACE that
FEELS that that SERENE 
HOTEL vibe

BUT 
it's ALSO 
KINDA
it's a test of the can you interact with the real world well enough to set of something you want WHY have you NEVER really 
got THIS right

NOT 
I have all these THINGS 
that MUST be CONFIGURED 
RATHER 

HOW 
DO I 
WANT 
THIS 
to BE

ALSO
abraham hicks I THINK maybe
CRIBBED off
neville goddard 

& videos of decorators rearranging furniture 

short attention span
only two chapters in on shaolin

NOW
I've got peace train stuck in my HEAD 
SOUNDS like 
cat stevens did he do peace train
YES

I think it would be good for me to
SLEEP 
I'm probably going to tibetan buddhism tomorrow 

unless it's raining 
street flooding 
is a possibility 
SO
if it's raining 
& truthfully 
I want to
FINISH
the 
ROOM

BUT 
they're doing a teaching 

I LOVE you VERY much sweetheart 
goodnight
