So, here I am...alone in Naperville for the longest time yet! Ryan is in Louisiana all week for work and will be in Dallas all next week too! I thought I was going to freak out and be super upset, but I am not. I wish he were here because we are so out of practice keeping each other updated via telephone, but other than that, I have kept pretty busy. I am working about 25 hours a week and getting a lot of compliments at work so it makes it a little easier to have my own life in conjunction with his.
In case you are interested, you can check out my job at this website--http://lechocolatdubouchard.com/--OR you could come visit me! I like being a server again and it is already evident that certain skills never go away!
Other than working, I am just TRYING to get a grip on my thesis--if you have advice for motivation/anti-procrastination, PLEASE let me know!
The best thing I've found for procrastination issues is dividing tasks up into very small bites and then committing to doing just the very first one and sincerely letting yourself know it's ok to take a break after that, even if it's just 5 minutes of work. 90% of the time, once you do that first bit you say "what the heck" and do the second and get into a flow. But if not, you take a break and then do the second tiny bite. It's amazing how it adds up over time.
ReplyDeleteI almost wish you didn't have a job.... Then whenever your husband left you could come here & we could keep each other company!
