Today’s challenge

I think this progressive update thing works. Today is my biggest challenge yet:

  1. I have a blocked-up headache and a sore back
  2. My cat, Zac, came home yesterday from the vet after a knee reconstruction, and is following me around and moaning at me.
  3. I need to get some client reports done but can’t get into it
  4. I could work on my Diploma essay – that seems more feasible given challenges 1 & 2.

I’ve resorted to working at the dining table so he (the cat) can see me wherever he is. The stairs are blocked so he can’t fall down them. He really wants to be outside, and we tried that because I thought he’d need to do what a cat needs to do, but he just wanted to sit and look around. Either that or asleep on my lap will do.

I’ve organised my work in the city for tomorrow. So that’s one for me!

Zac has found the sunny spot in the spare bedroom, so there’s hope for me yet!

[hours later] I did manage to work out the final structure of the essay and fix som citations, but not much else.

I also visited my sister’s place and talked to two of my nieces. Wonderful girls, both of them!

  • Productivity update 9 Sept 09
    It's the ninth of the ninth oh-nine. I don't remember doing anything special on 8/8/88, but on 7/7/77 I was in high school, and we had a little ceremony in the grounds and danced around a tree. My ...
  • Productive progress 7 September
    This essay is really getting me down, but I'm on the last stretch. It's finished, proofread (first proofread, more to come) and formatted to the required standard. I just need to proofread it again an...
  • Last dash
    Today I'm making a last dash to finish this essay. Why is it taking so long? Well, partly it's the need to get client work done first, and volunteer work with its deadlines, partly it's pure procrasti...
