improvement

I feel like things have changed drastically and not at all. While my days look a lot different than they did two months ago, they still all look more or less the same. The good news is I'm writing a little more regularly. I think I'm finding a rhythm, especially since I gave myself permission to write on Sundays. I've been trying to do that sabbath better, and last month I heard someone say the sabbath is supposed to be about worship and joy. Writing is kind of both to me, so I've made it a point to write Saturday and Sunday the last couple of weeks, and it's made a difference. I don't feel so pressured on Monday morning because I'm picking up where I left off. I'm least likely to write on Wednesday and Thursday now because those are my back to back days at work.

Speaking of work, I've learned to close, and while I haven't done it on my own yet, I feel like I have a better handle on it. I'll get some practice this week. Next weekend is prom for some of our kids, so I've got a couple of extra shifts. They're both evening, so it won't interfere with writing time.

That's really about it lately. I'm starting to feel more human when I leave work. I've taken to leaving a cup of coffee in the coffee pot when I leave for work so I can drink it when I get home. Eric gets home before me, so he's usually got dinner well in hand by the time I get here, assuming we've remembered to thaw something.

Hope y'all are having a good week.

Sounds like you're adjusting to the new routine well. Is that second cup good? Are you having it over ice?
