Odd Quiet Hours
I was busy much of the day but accomplished little in the grand scheme of things. This evening was sedate, quiet and would appear to the casual observer as boring. Richard received a shipment of 40 puzzle books he had ordered weeks ago, and I had my eyes glued to the latest book by Dean Koontz.
The sky was dark with the threat of rain, and thunder rumbled off to the north so there was no after dinner stroll for us tonight. There was a time when I would have considered the life I now live now as dull, but I am appreciative of our predictable and porridge smooth existence. Yes, I am thankful for the exciting times and experiences of my past, but am quite content with the placid present.
Yesterday, I went out to dinner with friends Sasha and Erica before our Advanced Cognitive Workshop at Giveback where we worked on Contextual Processing exercises. Erica is flying back to England Tuesday and we won't see her again until early next year. It was good to spend time with these special ladies who inspire me so much. The group had a surprise party for Erica and another person whop is leaving for Israel. Good party. good food.
I had a bit of a visit with Dr. Schutz after the workshop. He is truly an amazing man. Many folks talk of altruistic motives and plans, but this man acts on them. Everything at Giveback is absolutely free, including all the resources. There are resources for self therapists and their families. In depth writings, therapy plans, and the hours and hours of time to produce and lead survivors through the maze toward recovery - all free.

And my day was like this...
- 22:51 Back from dinner with friends and Giveback (with a party)... really pooped!
- 09:57 Slept in... way in! Was so tired last night. Now groggy and slow. Like moving in a space suit. Spaced suit, maybe.
- 11:22 Working on personal bookkeeping and bill paying chores. Actually, I enjoy it.
- 14:02 I'm late for Lunch with the Lord and starting to be ravenous for both. Too much paperwork here andI'm way too slow.
- 17:16 Picked up "Odd Hours" by Koontz-I love the library! Got gas-I hate being gouged! Made bank deposit & went to gym, both all good.
