Daily Success for an elderly peregrino is symbolized by this statue

Daily Success January 21 – Okay. Just the tiniest bit more, or even “well I could count this” scoring, and we’re to Very Good. But I wasn’t.

Yesterday

Yesterday was much better as I pretty much ignored the Sam things. Huge help. And there was plenty of football to get me to a good score. Lots of football = lots of distraction for my brain so that lots of exercise is ok.

Today

Today must include moving my finance tracking from Quicken, which is simply no longer tolerable, to something else. That will be more Internet banking and transaction tracking using (probably) a spreadsheet.

Lots of exercise, too, because lots of football.

Sadly, I must take some time for Sam and his endless something new. My foot must be down, but Jan has developed a solid “let’s work together” version of my stuff. I must tailor it, but that should not take a ton of time.

And general chores, of course. Much to do there as well.

The Future

No word yet from American Pilgrims about the hospitalero waitlist. Not expected for a month or more, either, just wishing and hoping.

The real issues, the issues that make the future unguessable at this point, include my left knee (who knows?), Sam (who knows?), and Jan (who knows?). The key, however, is being stronger about setting “me time” aside more rigorously. That is the foundation for improvement.
