Where did the time go?

Lately, I have been losing time.

Not losing time in the sense that I awaken some place and don't know where I've been or how I got there... but in the sense that I have so much to do that it all becomes overwhelming and I end up not completing the things that I would like to complete.

I end up in front of the television or playing piano or guitar instead of doing things on my never ending to do list.

I have friends coming up to visit labor day weekend and as a result have created a LARGE to do list of what's needed to get the house visitor ready... Each day is dedicated to completing a room or two - to get everything "visitor ready."

Saturday - Basement/Dining Room

Sunday - Kitchen/Living Room

Monday - guest room/guest bath

Tuesday - Studio

Wednesday - Master bedroom/bath

They arrive late Thursday night...

Instead of just doing this, I had to actually make a list to make sure that I complete all these tasks.

I'm also starting my new excercise plan on Monday. Oy... Why do I do these things to myself.

From Couch to 10K

I admit it...
My diet has been lousy. I haven't been working out. I've been doing what I enjoy doing... making music... slacking in general... being hyper... unfocused.
I have determined that I need some personal goals... a reason to get up in the morning and do, other than the requirement to go to work.
There is a program called "From Couch to 10K" it's a part of the Birmingham Track Club. It's a 10 week program... I think I can commit to that, just to see what will happen.
I may take profile pictures, so you can see my progress...
Or maybe I'm not that bold.
I'll let you know how it goes.

Hyper

Ummm.... WOW.

I feel like my mind is racing 1,000,000 miles per hour. Now that the house is clean - I have nothing to do to occupy my time. I'm used to having people around.

My mind races with the possibilities of all the things that need to be done... things that can be done. Too many books to read, too much music to compose, working out... it's almost overwhelming...

So far, the theory holds true. I'm a homebody. I can be totally and completely happy being at home by myself without human interaction... I have to remind myself to go out and have human interaction.

I don't have a set schedule. I'm finding that I need a schedule....

I was up until 2:00 am.

My alarm was set for 6:00 am.

I was in the office by 7:00...

I now know what people with ADHD feel like...

I've started writing things down... making "To Do Lists..."

Need... more... discipline... need to focus...

Need to be... less hyper.
