greenstormSo: Wednesdays are reliably not okay for me. Wednesday nights I can barely bring myself to stare at a wall. Thursdays, therefore, are difficult.
I need to figure out some strategies for getting myself through the next four weeks (at least) of Wed/Thursdays.
One thing that's always been difficult for me, and that's been slipping lately, is anticipation for activities I like. I tend to feel like I should husband my strength for other activities (mostly relationships because "people need me"), so I don't plan things I like (brewing, garden stuff, good emails, chatting with friends) for specific time slots, I just do them when time comes up. That leads to less anticipation, and thus, I can't pull myself through rough patches by looking forward to these things as much.
I think perhaps I should start planning Thursdays to be good-for-me days.
Also need bigger chunks of things to look forward to in February.
