Dateline 10-9-2017

Yesterday turned out to be a pretty uneventful day leaving me with very little to report on. I woke up late after sleeping in then casually worked through my daily tasks. My slow pace to the day made me feel a little guilty that I wasn't taking advantage of my revived positive attitude to power through the day and know out a lot of rewrite pages.

The guilt subsided eventually as I reminded myself that it was Sunday which is the one day a week that I actively attempt to take it easy. I know, I know, since I'm a "self-employed" freeloader, at this time, it can be easy for me to unintentionally slip into an easy day but when it comes to Sunday, I don't beat myself up no matter how little work I end up getting done.

That said, even though I took things slow, I still managed to meet all of my obligatory deadlines while also managing to fit in at least five pages of my novel rewrite. Normally I would consider this a productive day but due to my recent change back to a positive attitude, I was expecting to get to a lot more with my rekindled enthusiasm working as the fuel.

Today, being both a holiday and a Monday, I'm half expecting a repeat of the same sort of day only with lowered expectations and more reasonable goals to achieve. Now that my mood is even more balanced out, my idealized plan of attack isn't as grandiose since I'm settling back into being happy and don't feel the need to go overboard to compensate for the days that I lost when I was depressed.

So, now that I've shared my game plan and headspace for the day, it's time to get to work. As always, I check in again tomorrow whether or not I have anything all that important to say.

Talk to you then.

Sincerely,

The Wicker Breaker
