walkitoutWe’re all moving a little earlier in the day. This probably _shouldn’t_ be such an accomplishment, but we are who we are. A. asked last night for me to open her curtains and turn off her noise machine at 9 am, so I did, just before heading out on a walk with M. I started her breakfast, and then finished it when I came back. I’ve been watching TRMS/Alex Wagner on the Tivo the next day, rather than staying up to watch it, so I did that, then we did some TikTok.
I got a 3 mile walk late in the day, and I’ve also been reading Ellen Frank’s book about IPSRT. It’s good, albeit a bit dated.
I had a really long, like, 3 hours long, phone call with J. I was somewhat worried about it, because long conversations, especially ones about difficult topics can go really bad, but it seemed to be wanted on both sides, and while I got tired and developed a headache, I feel like it was really very productive. Certainly, back in 1999, I sure spent a long time spinning my wheels on the phone with J. and he pointed me in the direction of writing down what we were talking through it it honestly made an enormous, positive difference in the trajectory of my life. I don’t know that I am being as helpful to him as he was to me (I have no idea how I possibly could be) but it’s absolutely worth the effort. It also really feels like it is helping me think through the extremely difficult material that I think of as Advice Book 2.
