I have a problem with Mondays. Even though I am not working, I am bound by the work schedules of the people that I deal with – mostly doctors, but others as well. That means that I see weekends pretty much the way that everyone else does. There is also a very strongly ingrained pattern of behavior after decades of living a typical workweek schedule.
That means that Mondays are still that first day of the week when I need to get into gear.
This first week of January has been a Monday.
Blech. At least I feel as if this cold is finally lifting.

Onward! Or, the self-motivational post, sort of.
OK, I admit that I am slacking off. That’s what happens when there’s a weekend after a holiday. Everything seems to be waiting for Monday to begin. I did a few chores, but mostly I just slept this weekend. Hence the wee hour of the morning posting.
I don’t make New Year’s Resolutions. Not for any philosophical reasons, I just never get around to it, so there’s no waiting to start in on them. I just make plans. I need to keeping working on my recovery – which means moving on to the new things I was about to get to when I got sick for most of December; I need to read; I need to write; I need to learn; I need to create.
There, that’s a sketch of a plan/resolutions for the new year onward – with additions and edits and course corrections along the way.
I wish for everyone a good start to the first week of 2010 and a good year to follow.

Just a post for the 2nd
OK, so the cold knocked both me and my wife down so we stayed in on the 1st. This is the cold that will not leave. Also slept most of today, so we’re starting the year off very quietly. Which is not such a bad thing. I wish I had a clear enough head to read, but this cold is leaving me exhausted and my mind is muddled.
For example, I wrote yesterday’s post and then the editor lost it. I rewrote it – obviously – but I liked the first version better because it was clearer. Why can't I write the same thing twice? Oh well.
I always want to start a new year off right, but I’m not going to kick myself around. I’ll up the pace as soon as I can.
Congratulations to everyone who is starting off on new adventures this year! Good luck to you all!
