#603 – Hello 2018! and Taking a Stand Against Racism

So it took me half the month to get here, but let me catch you up on things. The trip to Florida went well. I got to see family I hadn’t seen in a long time, we had some time in the hotel room on our own so we didn’t have to be “on” all… Read More #603 – Hello 2018! and Taking a Stand Against Racism

The Last Three Days

First off, I’m sorry I haven’t written anything of substance for the last couple of days. Things have been really busy on this vacation and I’ve gotten in with just enough energy in the tank to say “I’ll get you tomorrow” twice and then go immediately to bed.So today’s blog post is going to cover… Read More The Last Three Days

Done Deal

This morning I attended my Area of Study information session, which is a requirement to be able to register for classes at Austin Community College. The meeting was at the Hays campus, which is in Kyle, a town south of Austin. I live on the north side of Austin, and so I had to drive… Read More Done Deal

Rest in Peace

Today was the funeral service for my father-in-law. We expected there to be some family drama but there was hardly any, and the service was very nice. We survived intact. My wife did tear up during the service, as both she and I expected, but it was brief. I expect that at some point it’ll… Read More Rest in Peace

A List of Accomplishments

Today is therapy day, and since I don’t remember all the progress that I’ve made over the last two weeks, I figured it would be prudent to summarize everything in a single place rather than looking through two weeks of blog posts during my session to grab the highlights. For those new to the blog,… Read More A List of Accomplishments

Turning a Corner

I went to the store today with my wife to get the weekly shopping done, which was considerably more than we normally get due to needing a lot of occasional purchases like cat litter and parchment paper, and stuff for Fourth of July potlucks. We were in the store for a while, and I never… Read More Turning a Corner

Another Step in the Right Direction

Once again, I spent most of my day in Secret World Legends. Yes, I know I’m hyperfocusing on it. However, dinner was something of a step forward. We went out to dinner on a Friday night, to a very crowded barbecue restaurant. No anxiety at all. For someone that even at his best still avoided… Read More Another Step in the Right Direction

Road Trip!

We got a call last night from my mother-in-law, asking what we were doing tonight. We thought this odd since she lives in Illinois. Nope, she explained, she was in San Antonio for a board meeting and wanted to know if we’d be willing to drive down to have dinner with her. We thought about… Read More Road Trip!

Seems Like a Simple Thing

Today we had planned to go to the store together, and then to do our radio show in the evening, and do a lot of goofing off around that. But instead my wife got called into work for seven and a half hours, which put everything else on hold. So I decided to take up… Read More Seems Like a Simple Thing

Progress on Several Fronts

I met with my therapist today. We talked about the last two weeks – about the SCA event over the weekend, about how I managed to avoid much anxiety, how much fun I had, and how glad I was to be getting back into an area of the SCA that I used to enjoy very… Read More Progress on Several Fronts
