I need to hire someone to do something to the front lawn, or what used to be the front lawn before I stopped watering it. I am thinking desert landscape , and using my tax refund to make it happen.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm another one of those people who is too guilt wracked to take a day off and just rest. To the point that the last time I did was when I was recovering from surgery the day before. And the time before that probably ditto.
BTW I don't recommend it. I think it's a stupid habit that leads to unhappiness and burnout.

Punishingly Intricate
The screening call I was supposed to have yesterday afternoon was cancelled by them at the last minute because the person who was supposed to do the call had a doctor appointment. She said she'd reschedule for next week but, oof, yesterday was rough at work. I totally blew up in a meeting (just an internal one, but still). I really am wondering if it would be totally insane to quit without having already secured a new job. Probably.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Tough one, lisah. I hope the screening call gets rescheduled quick and goes well!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ooh, thanks, meara -- your patio looks great! And you will find positive comments on Jupiter Ascending and McFarland USA in the movie thread, I believe.

I mean, probably, but if you can afford some significant time off, maybe worth it.

I moved a tree today. Owww... Much bending, much lifting, much digging.

The status is NOT quo.
I still haven’t taken a shower, but I had some food and spent a couple of hours doing work for my grad class (sitting on my patio, which is my favorite thing), and I think now I may have enough energy to do a few other odds and ends. I just got new patio chair cushions and need to set them up (and then cover them to protect from dogs). I also need to do laundry. We’ll see if I manage anything else. I should go to the gym. Not sure if that’s going to happen yet.

I see you are as bad as I am about taking "time off", Pix. But yay for studying on the patio. That actually sounds kind of lovely.

I am SO bad at taking time off. Unless I have a great video game. Then I’m a total addict and slacker extraordinaire. It’s my way of escaping from reality.
