This counting business is becoming rather silly – and I'm writing this post on Sunday evening because I only just remembered that I've not been keeping this diary.
So, here's to trying to remember what I did on Friday:
Slept rather late, and took Concerta at about 9:10 instead of 8:45am. Not that that seems to make any difference at all.
Felt pushed to get stuff done, work and Gaelic and after the Gaelic session – during which I was barely able to concentrate because I was so nervous and jittery – I felt I needed to cut the grass – it was day two of a run of lovely dry weather. The dew is heavy, though, and the grass long, which means that it's really rather wet. Still, got about half the grass cut – and spent ages cleaning the flymo afterwards, which ended up being all clogged-up with the wet green stuff.
And I ended up not going out.
What went well today?
Got the grass cut (well, half of it).
How can I make it happen more regularly?
Doing it more regularly would mean a bit less hassle. But we had three weeks of almost constant wet weather.
What strengths have I focused on today?
Pushing myself so things do get done just in time (at the cost of feeling utterly exhausted afterwards).
At what point did I feel most authentically myself?
Pushing the lawnmower? Discussing language issues? Stuffing my face with silly TV shows?
Maybe. And all of the above. I'm feeling petulant and have not much patience for diaries any more.
Is Concerta making a difference?
I don't really know. Would probably have to stop taking the drug to see if it makes a difference.
Yes, there is one positive difference: my sleep IS better. But it's not going to change the habits of 60 years, is it?
