m_d_hIt's starting to bite, in terms of figuring out when to do the meditation each day. Yesterday, even though it was a Sunday, was such a lazy day for me, with napping and video gaming, that I didn't get around to the 19-minute meditation until after T had gone to bed. Today is a Maids Day, so this morning we were busy getting ready for that, and I didn't do my 20-minute meditation until I arrived at the condo.
Yesterday I was willing to go without the journaling reward for completing the daily meditation, but in the end I didn't want to skip a day and then drop back by half to a 9-minute meditation. I wasn't ready to lose the first round of this game yet!
This morning while meditating, it was difficult to shake off my work stress -- stuff had piled up on Friday, I thought maybe I'd work some on Sunday to catch up, but then I didn't, so this morning I was feeling, "I have too much work to do," and the meditation felt like time I could've or should've spent working instead.
I've never gotten this far in my little meditation game -- 16 days in a row. I wonder how far I'll get?

I want to do a dance video while I'm here at the condo, but I think I need to finish some of the work stuff on my plate first, so I'm not feeling so stressed. There are four work items I want to accomplish today, and there's plenty of time to accomplish them, I just need to do them. How about I start with the quickest item first. Then the next quickest, etc., let's just get the number of items down.
