Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-Nine, Dateline 6-28-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-nine of Operation Achieve Anything. Last night I went to bed feeling pretty bummed out because I felt that I ruined my nephew's fun earlier in the day. It happened because I was in the middle of watching the episode of Saturday Night Live that I had to review for the day which is literally the only time that I can’t have him out here because he is too distracting. Any other time I’m usually writing at my desk while he watches YouTube on my TV and jumps around on my couch.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-Eight, Dateline 6-27-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-eight of Operation Achieve Anything. Once again, I’m getting a later start than usual due to the PM pain meds that I’m taking to help me get through my latest bout of sciatica. Though it’s been really nice to get the all of this extra sleep, I don’t like the anxiety that it creates in me as I feel more rushed to make my day. With that said, I’d rather have a week filled with anxiety while my back feels better every day than to wake up extra early in pain with no idea as to whether or not my back will ever feel any better again.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-Seven, Dateline 6-26-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-seven of Operation Achieve Anything. Here we go with another day, my back is finally started to feel a lot better but it still aches enough to where I’m still aware of the pain and fear the short bursts of sharp pain if I turn weird, stand too long, or simply step too high while I walk. I really hope that this clears up really soon because it’s growing to become a singular focus.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-Six, Dateline 6-25-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-six of Operation Achieve Anything. I’m getting a late start today because I woke up to find that my job wants me to switch departments which meant that I had to fill out even more new hire documents. Though it’s annoying that I don’t get paid for all of this extracurricular work, I am excited about the potential change of pace along with the potential that switching tasks is a sign that I’ll be employed for at least a couple more months.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-Five, Dateline 6-24-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-five of Operation Achieve Anything. It’s Sunday and I’m feeling like garbage. I don’t know what’s going on with my back. It felt like it was getting better yesterday morning but by the time evening came around I could barely even walk. The weird thing is, this is a new pain that’s very sporadic as to when it will act up. So I’ll be getting around just fine and then, BAM, out of the blue I’ll feel like I’m about to collapse.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-Four, Dateline 6-23-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-four of Operation Achieve Anything. Not only am I excited by the fact that it’s Saturday and I plan to spend most of my day marathon watching whatever on my brand new Netflix account, but my back is feeling ten times better ever since I started to add a PM pain relief pill into the mix of my sleepy time regiment. At least I hope that’s the case because the constant pain as really been dragging me down.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-Three, Dateline 6-22-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-three of Operation Achieve Anything. Today I was trying something different and I really don’t like the outcome. I thought, “How great would it be to finish my paid work first to then spend the rest of my Friday having fun while working on my TheWickerBreaker.com content. Unfortunately, now I’ve finished work and am in a very grumpy mood because of technical from the paid gig, and now the service I used to create my blog pages is acting up where it will not allow me to save my content so now I’m in a frustrating fight with my own site.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-Two, Dateline 6-21-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-two of Operation Achieve Anything. Today is the last day of yet another family visit, which has been fun but at the same time, I can’t wait to get back to my normal scheduled programming. There’s just a subtle sense of unnecessary stress whenever there’s a guest in the house. I feel it’s because my family has a way of always trying to be the perfect host while deep down inside we really don’t like any changes to our routines. I think this because I either inherited or learned that trait through my upbringing, so it’s easy to spot when it shows up in the people who did the raising or were also raised this way.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy-One, Dateline 6-20-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy-one of Operation Achieve Anything. Today’s going to be another quick one. That said, unlike in the past where I either claimed I was in a rush only to ramble on for a page and a half or I admitted to the defeat of feeling uninspired, this post is going to be quick due to the fact that yesterday’s assignment was an artistic one and I’ve already spent a ton of time fulling the actual assignment and now I need to move on.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Seventy, Dateline 6-19-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-seventy of Operation Achieve Anything. My paycheck arrived last night and though I still have to wait to get it cashed, just having it in my possession is enough to ease some of the stress that’s been building ever since I burned through my last bit of money. I don’t have as much to buy with this paycheck so I should be able to make it stretch until I get paid again and should be able to keep this paycheck to paycheck existence running smoothly, at least until I get fired from my job.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-Nine, Dateline 6-18-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-nine of Operation Achieve Anything. Here we go with another Monday where I feel nice and refreshed from not having to do the day job on the weekend and wondering how long it will take for the gig to drive me out of my mind. Hopefully, this will be an easy week as there does seem to be ups and downs in how knit-picky they get with their feedback.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-Eight, Dateline 6-17-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-eight of Operation Achieve Anything. Yesterday, I got a lot of much-needed rest and now feel like my spirits have been reset during the downtime. This is good because I was just saying how I was starting to slip into a negative headspace that didn’t quite feel like a bout of depression but I definitely was finding myself starting to focus on the gloomier side of existence.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-Seven, Dateline 6-16-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-seven of Operation Achieve Anything. It’s Saturday, I’m starting to feel run down, so I’m going to make this one quick in order to rush back to bed to lay around for another day in hopes that this bout of weekend rest will finally work out the back pain that’s been contributing to my low mood. Thankfully, I don’t feel that I’m slipping into another bout of depression, I just feel like I need a bit of a recharge as I continue to find the right life balance since my schedule’s been shifted thanks to my new gig.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-Six, Dateline 6-15-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-six of Operation Achieve Anything. I’m so excited that it’s Friday and I’m just a couple of hour away from being done with my day job for a couple of days. I hate how much this gig drains my energy each week, especially considering how easy the work is and how it should be a stress-free job. It almost feels like the company keeps throwing extra hurdles in order to stop us from settling into a groove by making subtle changes to their expectation randomly throughout the week.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-Five, Dateline 6-14-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-five of Operation Achieve Anything. This is probably going to be a quick one because the Achieve Anything… book’s returned focus on lessons about laughter is really starting to get me feeling down. For one, the book already dredged up enough sad thoughts about my former favorite past-time during the last laughter-themed set of lesson from just a couple of months ago.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-Four, Dateline 6-13-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-four of Operation Achieve Anything. We’ve reached the humpday of this week that I just can’t wait to be over. It’s not really that it’s been all that bad but I’m getting really antsy about payday being just around the corner. The job I have pays only once a month making it harder to spread out my spending to maintain this new phase of a paycheck to paycheck life that I’m building up to.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-Three, Dateline 6-12-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-three of Operation Achieve Anything. Well, yesterday turned out to be an unexpected fun day where I woke up early enough to finish all of my obligations before noon and then said fuck it which led to a bit of day drinking. I don’t really feel all that bad about this impromptu decision since it was a failed goal throughout the entire weekend only I kept giving into tinkering with my website overhaul.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-Two, Dateline 6-11-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-two of Operation Achieve Anything. Here we go with another Monday installment where I don’t really want to face the day. Thankfully, this is due to the fact that I just want to rest and not because I’m feeling down and depressed since I’ve been on an upswing over the past couple of weeks.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty-One, Dateline 6-10-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty-one of Operation Achieve Anything. It’s Sunday, and I think that I’ve gotten as far as I can with my blog overhaul until my next paycheck comes in and I can afford to buy the software I need to move forward. Since that’s not coming for a little over a week, that means I get some time where I get to take it easy for a little bit while not worrying whether or not I’m procrastinating.

Operation Achieve Anything: Day One-Hundred-Sixty, Dateline 6-9-2018

Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-sixty of Operation Achieve Anything. It’s six o’clock in the AM on a Saturday and here I sit, blown away by the fact that I’ve seemed to cross over to become an early morning person where this is the new time that I enjoy to work. I wish I could have pulled this off back in my nine to five days when it actually mattered what time I started my day as opposed to now when my schedule is completely flexible.
