First I started working on getting everything to "IN". It's an organization concept from the Getting things Done book I recently read. It says that if you will get all of your stuff organized into a system that he gives you the workflow for, then your mind will no longer be concerned with all of your internal lists. It works! I'm not even done yet but just starting the process has made a big difference.
Second, I decided to use the Massage gift certificate that I got for Father's Day. Massage Envy in Collierville is a great place. I've been here once before and it was a worth the trip, but nothing like this time. I don't know if the experience changes with the massage therapist, or if I was just more tensed up than last time. It's probably both but I was feeling no pain when I left there yesterday. It was unbelievable how much better I felt and even how much better I could breathe. It wouldn't take much more convincing to get me to go on a regular basis. Of course that is exactly what they want you to do, claiming on their literature that once a month is good for your health. I'm starting to agree.
Last, we went out for ice cream after the sun went down, which was about 8:30. We took the dogs because at Brusters they give you a doggie scoop. A lot of people were there. One group showed up with a collie about 10 times the size of our dogs. Our dogs immediately started barking and going into attack mode. The collie stood still looked at them and had a look on his face like.. "riiiight"
This morning I woke up to a very loud edger being used by my neighbor we have correctly named "tool man". This guy never goes inside. He's always in the garage or the yard and he has every tool known to man. The other day when the storm came and the power went out - 5 minutes into the darkness I hear this distant hum of a large air conditioner. I looked out the only thing I see, is his house lit up like Christmas. Tool man's got a generator going. This pissed me off for some reason, I guess I was jealous. This morning I actually enjoyed the 7:30 wake up call from his edger. I like a good Saturday workday and the sites and sounds that go with it.
