A Different Detach At lash place with the Nurse. In a cozy sofa-like chair. I don’t know if this is fake leather, or what… but it’s cozy. And I have some time to collect. When back at the house, one meeting, then I think I’m done for the day. But don’t want to hex the…

When the Universe smiles at you…
You smile back. Show gratitude, enjoy it and study why you’re smiling. And, maybe why this was selected to occur now. Do I believe in coincidence? Yes, I think… Do I believe in something beyond all this planning events, or putting me in front of people at a certain time so they can say things…
After Ops meeting, I’m even more intent on getting this writer more organized. Simplified.
No run at lunch. Going forward, workouts are either before or after “shift”. Messaged Nurse…. She’s busy at work. Crazy commute for her as well, taking her nearly an hour to reach NB. Said there was a police chase that ended in a crash, and the suspect stabbed a dog…? AND, the perp is now…
On the floor writing while the Nurse readies for a night at one of our spots, with two of her nurse friends, ML & NS.
Easy day, not too many demands from the sales world, sales life, notes or to-do’s for next week. How did I find myself here? Well, I know. And by here I mean at Sonic. I’d always wanted to come back… why did I leave.. the thoughts get tangled and I know there’s not really any…
Getting the ASBC project off the ground. Call earlier, now just have to make some small business contacts. Rewriting the day’s agenda, in a second.
No run today, again. Too much to do… One project, then another. No more new ones, I swear…. Like my head is spinning and the mind is desperate to escape itself. Was talking with a guy from another department, Logistics I think, in the break room a minute ago, telling me he’s rowing during the…
Change in the company, and there is a new Story for me…. Coffee, sound of an airplane over our Vacaville home.
Caring for SELF, in a new way. Email account having issues, and I’m refusing to let it do anything to my mood. Coffee…. The book. Work tomorrow, in the office, build more of the Story of a Consumer Sales Trainer. The notes and lessons, how it extends out of the role itself— Nothing to write…
Back from lunch with Nurse.
Article posted on bottledaux.com, with the intention and vision of turning the site into a SELF-Care content agency. Quite honestly, I had the idea this morning at Peet’s getting coffee with the Nurse and have been haunted by it before that so this morning I decided to write. Part of it, to be honest, was…
WFH. 08:52…. Dominant idea for week, OWN. From the Onus idea and stress throughout my teaching “career”.
Just got back from coffee with Nurse. Talking about the weekend we just had, how we needed it, and while her and I offered thoughts and insights and reflections, I thought about organizing the day, where I start writing. The book, not done in the next 8 days, I can almost assure. So.. stay here…
07:59 ::: Home and starting day. Coffee with the Nurse at Peet’s, I believe our first such of the week.
Been making coffee at home, which I nearly wish we would have done this morning, with the wait and the crowd in the shop. Parking before that.. But I’m here, practicing calm. Not much practice needed, I’m simply doing it. Discussion yesterday with a Senior Instructional Designer, about me offering a course at the company. …
6.38 miles. 8:28 pace. Hot, and more so than I expected. I know it’s Vacaville, but DAMN.
12:15, early lunch done. And now time to write and enjoy some time to SELF… a true dose of self-care about to materialize. One of the painters comes up. There goes the quiet. No complaints, just logging occurrence. QBR meeting went well, thinking of getting out of the house, changing scene, maybe the coffee place…

3-16-26 Office. Something on my mind, distracting me. But deciding to let it go. My focus needs to be here.. HERE. In this Sonic office. Nowhere else. Have to check calendar… back in a sec. Trying to talk myself into running. Maybe later, after lunch…. Put off a money-related appt till tomorrow, EOD. Just talking…
!!!!!!!!
14:10. Time for some coffee. Call in 20 minutes with the Dallas Market Manager…. The strength I felt earlier today has only heightened, like the Sales Heights I write about so often. Coffee, a small and regular not too strong, and while waiting for it.. I DECIDED. Book done by 3/31/26. YES. It has to…
