Vacaville, CA. Peet’s Coffee First of the month. The energy at work reflects it… excitement and eagerness, supporting others. That BOLDNESS, and Adaptability, among other valued Core Values. Designing a new playbook. Or, not a new one, but one from the other MANY documents I’ve composed since being back home.. Distracted by the energy of…

Images… Zen. LOVE.
Meditation after run… collect, introspection, meditation but more.
…trying to cool down and collect myself, thinking of how to think, how to be the best character. I’ve been 47 for two days now, and I feel different. Different as in better. And this run is just an exponent, an augmenter. How do I keep this going, how do I maintain this, how do…
Working on the Nurse’s book all morning. 12 minutes left on a productivity timer I set for myself, forcing production and singular project focus.
In this new year, FOCUS. Consolidation… running and writing, HEALTHY ways for this writer. So grateful, I don’t know what to say… just seeing more, after the 29th, seriously. Not complicating, not taking energy away and placing it where it needn’t be. The Nurse and her heart, how kind she is, always humbling me…….

Silly in my thoughts, careless and it feels amazing, freeing, like I’m reborn or something. Seriously. ….. Consolidating. Simplifying and singularizing. Just me, this blog, the books, not too many “businesses”, I promised myself walking up the stairs to the office just as I turned on the light. Waiting for student to log on… PEACE,…
Taking a minute in the break room. Not alone, and that’s fine.
I want to hear other conversations…. People talking, their stories. Two people at my writing booth, talking about cooking, and then running, then waking up super early and running and working out. FUCK, I say to myself. I need to get up at get it out of the way. Chris last night telling me that’s…
12:04 —> Gifting myself QUIET. Some time to collect.
And why not. Everything with an optimistic edge and tone. What I’m deciding. What I’m, just, speaking. Find a new strength this morning. Like a lack of concern, but…. Not that. It’s better. More freeing, actually. Just me at the desk, and the simplicity is of a strange and more layered allure. I’m just…
08:00 note and signature
In office early. Coffee, class in an hour. Didn’t sleep well last night, and not letting my head get set in anything opposite of favorable. Nurse calls me, wishing me a great day. Followed by a few ILU’s… there, the writer is better. 08:13… staying in this free-write, this setting and sitting, although I’m standing. …
Three days till I’m 47. Holy fuck…. Yeah, well, it is what it is.
I take some minutes to myself after a great meeting with my Sales Ops Director, Sandra… a strong and empathetic, brilliant and driven woman I have respected for years. Motivated by our meetings, or jam sessions as I call them. Thinking about one more coffee, but refraining. Imagine that…. Example of deciding to stop and…
