Getting my life back on track.

(Written Thursday) I am slowly getting my life back on track. It’s amazing how one’s life can quickly spin out of control in such a short amount of time.  I still haven’t made it back to the gym in over a month, but I’ll work up to that. I don’t want to do too much at once and overwhelm myself and then just not do anything. So, today I finally got back on the stair stepper. I can’t believe how long I have neglected exercising.  This is a step in the right direction. The next step will be getting to bed earlier so I can get up earlier and get my day started sooner. If I’m going to be putting in 40hrs a week I’m going to need to get to work earlier.   And it’s not like I don’t have work piling up. I really do. I really need to prove to my boss that I can get things done in a timely manner. I’ve got 3 transcriptions that have been sitting and waiting for me to do.  I am such a preacher on not procrastination and I am the biggest hypercritic.  I am a much better at dishing out advice then taking my own or other’s advice. Going on a social hiatus from the single scene should help me get my life back on track.  I have made it a point to not date till I got my paperwork, but that doesn’t mean I made my self a social outcast. I have kept myself busy hanging out with friends and going to activities. Now, I’m going to take a break from that and get my life back on track.  As much as I’d love to go to my friend’s house Friday night and carve pumpkins, I think it would be best for me to hang out at home and sort through that box of papers that needs to be filed.  I know, not the most fun activity I can plan for the weekend, but it really needs to be done. I’ve been putting it off forever and the pile is really stacking up.  I’m ready to go. I have gathered together a file box, hanging folders, clear tabs, paper to put in those tabs, folders to put in the hanging folders and the label maker.  Did you see the Seinfeld episode about the Label Maker; well I thought to make my evening more complete I will borrow a Label maker and go town.

Let’s see what really happens on Friday. I’m still tempted to put off filing, yet again and Carve pumpkins. That sounds so much more fun.  Or I can go out in search of those red shoes that my girlfriend suggested. There are just so many options. And if you read my blog post yesterday you will know that I easily swayed and spontaneous.
