Darkness on the Edge of Town

There was a song title to go with that album title, right?  Oh, well.  Just a little darkness at the far-reaching edges of my usually sunny disposition this week (this is supposed to make you laugh at the sarcasm.  Go ahead.  I am.).

The Good Stuff:
  • I tracked, did Morning Pages, rode the bike, read, and did some yard work.  All the good, basic stuff I want and need to get done.  Yay.
  • My dental check up went fine
  • Sneaky is back and doing great. We didn't talk yesterday, but I guess she was busy.
  • Got a little back end maintenance done at FM
The Not So Good Stuff:
  • The deteriorating filling they've been watching for a year or two has reached the point where they want to do a crown.  We're going to do it before the tooth breaks so we can control what happens.  Apparently, if the tooth breaks, and it doesn't do it the right way, they can't fit it for a crown. 
  • Despite tracking, I've managed to gain 6 pounds since starting to use LoseIt!.  I think I have something backwards here.
  • I'm still avoiding the writing thing.  
The Week Ahead:
  • Track, read, morning pages.
  • Head back to San Antonio on Sunday in preparation for reporting to jury duty Monday morning.  They sent free bus passes with the summons, and, since I live on a major bus route that runs right downtown, I'm going to use them.
  • If I get released by Wednesday afternoon, we'll scamper up to Lawton, OK, on Thursday for my nephew's high school graduation on Friday.  If I don't get released by Wednesday, we'll have to cancel the trip.  Mr L says they usually empanel for M-T-W and W-R-F, so he says I should know by early on Wednesday what the scoop will be for me. (R = Thursday -- that's how they did it on my computerized junior high school class schedule, and I've never forgotten it, but I don't know how prevalent the usage is.)
Have a great week, y'all!

Jean, have you read anything by Stephen Pressfield? "Turning Pro" is an amazing motivator, and so is "The War Of Art." They're both geared to writers/artists specifically although most of what he says can be used for life in general. Those are go-to books for me when I get discouraged.
