On-Off Cycle

Productive days, then non-productive days.
I have my project/ TTD list; It is the follow-though that becomes the issue. Not that I am totally slacking, but I wish I could get myself moving a bit quicker.

One step at a time- at least it is movement.

Continuing in the garden.
I move away from the west beds, instead, working on the smaller bed by the parking area. I felt that I need a couple of "little victories" and then I will return to the larger beds. After this bed, I will work on the fence.
Like last year, the back patio is filling up with plants.
Unlike last year, I do not want to plant things at the end of the season to just get it in the ground.

When the rain arrived, I worked on the main computer (cleaning it out). Took a while, but I think performance improved. I had things on there from years ago. Ironic, I find it faster than my laptop (being 11 years old).

The rain yesterday was a nuisance: quick, not much at all. But a good storm hit last night. 40% of more this afternoon.

After I get my ass to the gym, I will continue in the yard.

I don't know why the gym is such a big issue. If I make it my #1 priority- something that should be easy; if I do nothing else, at the very least I go to the gym- it is just too much pressure.

Bottom line is really this:
I feel better when I go. My mind is clear, mood is better.
I need to get into the habit (time management is another issue to work on this summer).

Heath and David had a little project last night: spying on Robin (Heath's wife). He suspects she is cheating on him (this would be the second time- email, text messages), so, after telling Robin he was going out of town, the two of them followed her after work. They lost her for a bit, but she went home.
Not that I am an angel, or that David and I are perfect, but Heath needs to make decisions about his marriage. Frankly, I never thought she was much of anything, but Heath is somewhat social inept and probably pussy-whipped.

To me, spying only makes it worse.

When David told me about their night, he repeated "tolerating behavior." Interesting.

Last summer, we had a big talk about our relationship. Not that it was an all-enveloping discussion, but a few realities were brought to the surface- in the end, honestly, nothing changed, and I sometimes struggle with various aspects. If I think about it too much, I just get more irritated, so I just ignore it. Perhaps I've developed an disassociation.

Otherwise, I'm just kind-of chugging along; going with the flow.
Enough to do to keep me busy (which is sometimes a headache), but I am enjoying my summer break.
