So just wanted to report that this weekend felt like a model weekend. One of those where I really got a lot done but kept it balanced with recouping from the previous week (side note here - usually it's one or the other, but not both - i.e. sleep and lounge and not get anything done, or just work, work, work, but than end up exhausted for Monday). Saturday I woke up at my regular time (6 am), went to the bathroom, than went back to bed and slept for some more. Read in bed a bit, got up and tidied the house, put a load of laundry in, did the dishes and made breakfast. Than headed off to run errands on foot - gorgeous brisk autumn day. Went to the bank (deposit, money order and notorized docs), the post office, and the library. Got back home and had a bite to eat for lunch and watched War of the Worlds and Must Like Dogs - my double feature, while knitting on my knew cardigan pattern from Jo Sharp and dealing with financials. Two comments, I got a lot of boring stockinette knitting done during War of the Worlds - addrenlin rushing in some parts, and felt like the Must Like Dogs gave me a preview (although with a hollywood twist) of the whole online dating stuff.
Than cooked and baked - made Mary's Apple tort and Roasted butternut squash - while keeping the kitchen clean. Took a good two plus hours prepping everything, but was good food in the house finally. Than early to bed (by accident - i.e. couch).
Today got up and had a good breakfast and headed off to work to catch up on my humongus project that I have no time for. I've been working on it all day and feeling like it's in a better place (think of infinity and that is the scope of this project). Plus I think I garnered bonus points with the boss man as he ended up coming in this afternoon and we have been working side by side - commradery is a good thing. So finally feeling like I truely am taking back control of my life - and it ain't all talk. Tons more, but a bit more work and than home to a relaxing evening before the week begins all over again.
