But then again, when is it not?
I was just going over my Google calendar and putting in all the things that I have happening this upcoming week.
I swear, I might need to not look at it for a while, there’s a lot going on.
But, I usually do have a lot going on.
I’m feeling the need to organize it as I wanted to see where I had little pockets of time to address things.
Like clothes shopping for D.C.
It was 75 degrees in San Francisco today.
It was glorious.
I wore a sundress.
I loved it.
February always has a run of nice days in San Francisco, it’s like a little mini-summer break, in the middle of what should be winter.
D.C. however is not that warm.
Nope.
Today the high was 41 degrees.
Granted I’m not going to D.C. to participate in outdoor activities, I mean cozy hotel, cozy restaurants and cafes, cozy museums, maybe a brisk walk around Dupont Circle and Georgetown but aside from that I won’t be outside that much.
Yet.
I still have a yearning for some cold travel appropriate clothes.
Plus I will have one nice meal out if not two and I want something appropriate for where I’ll be dining that’s not, well, a summer dress.
So.
Anyway.
Just spent a lot of time combing over my schedule and seeing where I can do things.
Tomorrow is pretty jam-packed.
Coffee in the morning and walk on the beach with my best friend.
9a.m. yoga class.
Shower and breakfast and more coffee after that.
My morning writing routine.
Food prep for the week.
And then.
I have a ten page paper I have to knock out.
I also have a lady coming over to do work at 2p.m. and I will be leaving to do very much the same kind of work cross town with my person at 5:30 p.m. then over to the Castro to get right with God and that is it.
My Sunday.
I won’t have time to do any shopping or the like.
Nor did I have time today.
I did, however, do some nice self-care things for me.
I did go to yoga, my head always says, just sleep in, but my feet were smart, I’d signed up for the class the night before, and I went, and as it is always, I was quite happy after I had done the class.
I had super hot shower, washed my hair, ate a great breakfast, worked on some client emails, did a bunch of writing, and went off to my internship for group supervision.
I was supposed to see a consultation today.
They no showed.
So I took the extra time, went to the bank, deposited a check, went to the car wash and got my car washed and then actually found brilliant parking just off Divisadero a block from a nail salon that I have been frequenting more often.
I got a mani/pedi and the eyebrows waxed.
It felt super nice to have an hour and a half of not moving, just relaxing, getting a little pampered, and then I was off to the spot for the doing of the deal and after, home.
A bite to eat for dinner, confirmation about meeting my friend for coffee, I can’t believe I’m getting up at 6:30 a.m. to meet my friend for coffee.
I obviously love my friend.
I hope there’s a lot of coffee.
Heh.
And that about wraps up my night.
It wasn’t a huge eventful day, but it was sweet and there were good moments of self-care and I had a few phone check ins with the new lady I’m working with and that felt really good.
I’m not going to make it a late night tonight, since I’m getting up early, just a little snack, some hot tea, and a bit of Peaky Blinders.
I’m quite taken with the show.
Just started season 4.
And a good nights sleep.
I’m not really upset about getting up early on my day off, it’s actually a good way to start the week, being up as early as my earliest day, which is Monday.
I’ll have a lot of 6:30 a.m. starts this week.
Monday for supervision before work.
Tuesday, fingers crossed there will be a fucking yoga class to go to before therapy.
Wednesday, a chiropractor appointment before work.
Thursday I can “sleep” in until 7a.m.
But Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I’m back in school for the second weekend of classes for the semester, and that means a 6:30 a.m. start for each of those days as well.
So an early start tomorrow will just prime the pump.
And I’m super happy to see my best friend, our schedules are full and busy and it can be really hard to see each other.
I’m sure the company will be fantastic and I won’t be at all upset about getting out of bed early on a Sunday.
Fuck.
It will probably put me in such a good mood that I will get all the work done I need to do.
Fingers crossed.
Because I don’t have space or time during the week to work on my paper, I have to do it tomorrow.
I’m sure it will get done.
I always get them done.
I just have to sit down and show up.
And.
Well.
Write.
I think I can do that.
And with that I bid you adieu.
Snack, tea, Peaky Blinders, bed time.
Sweet dreams lovey.
Sweet dreams.
