Day Thirty-three

Slept in a bit and took Concerta at about ten past nine. Still on 2x18 = 36mg/day. Felt ok physically.

What emotional pangs did I notice today?

None. I'm fine as long as I've got lots of diverse activities on my hands.




What went well today?
Productive day:
- sent off yet another translation job within the deadline.
- handed back some things left behind by one of my summer visitors.
- received back a fairly substantial loan to said visitor.

- taught a good ESOL class, with the help of a wonderful young co-teacher; we had a visit from a UNISON representative. They have a programme focusing on continuing education for migrant workers. It was really instructive and interesting, not least for my line-manager and one of the Library staff.
- taught a good lesson to my private ESOL student. Really enjoying the exploration of some challenging English/Irish poets with her.
- enjoyed the second portion of a yummy dinner.
- did another translation (short piece) and shipped that off.
- looked at my Gaelic work so I am ready to go tomorrow. 
How can I make it happen more regularly?

Stay focused. Stay disciplined.
What strengths have I focused on today?

Ability to focus when necessary.
At what point did I feel most authentically myself?
Teaching, working, e-mailing, living...

What did not go so well?
Cravings. Ran out of cashews so overdid the dark chocolate just a bit and am feeling quite "fizzy" now it's time for bed.
