<\/a><\/p>\nProof I got dressed and left my house and drove my car.\u00a0 I may have been wearing a sweatshirt and running tights, but at least it wasn’t PJs!<\/em><\/p>\n Today’s objective was a whole bunch of errands for both Holiday shopping and just regular stuff, plus a run in the middle.\u00a0 I could have run around the house and gotten it done first, but I know me.\u00a0 I would have put it off for a while waking up, and then after I would have showered and lounged on the couch, and then it would have been late and more traffic-y and I might have blown it off.\u00a0 I also put on the list a place I wanted to eat for lunch (Parr’s Deli, great greek food) that Zliten doesn’t love as motivation to get my ass out.<\/p>\n I left the house around 11 (a little later than I wanted, but such is life), and had a bit of a false start when some dude almost plowed into me.\u00a0 He had his blinker on and was slowing down, and then randomly decided not to turn and speed up as I pulled out.\u00a0 Awesome.\u00a0 However, it was not an omen.\u00a0 The day actually was… dare I say… enjoyable?<\/p>\n I spent the day on missions.\u00a0 I often get distracted in stores, looking at everything, and then I’m like – crap, it’s been two hours, I’m over this.\u00a0 Not that I stayed COMPLETELY on task, I came home with a few extranous things, but I remembered today was about the list, not wandering.<\/p>\n Second, it was bright and beautiful out.\u00a0 I think if it was gross out or dark I wouldn’t have been so happy.\u00a0 I was looking forward to getting to my run so I got through my early errands quickly and then after my run, I felt pumped up and happy, not tired, and was on my way to finish up my list with a great attitude.\u00a0 Breaking up errands with a destination run was a great decision!<\/p>\n Third, I forgot how much I love driving around with the music up loud singing.\u00a0 When Zliten’s in the car, we have the music on super quiet or not at all and talk, which is nice, but I enjoyed my karaoke time.\u00a0 In fact, I was a lot more patient waiting for lights because I was like, man, my jam’s on, I don’t want to be there yet.\u00a0 I realized, like some people can’t walk and chew gum at the same time, I don’t drive and talk well.\u00a0 Music helps me concentrate and relax at the same time.<\/p>\n Fourth, it was my only goal today.\u00a0 I didn’t have fifty thousand things to do like normal and get cranky at the tasks for wasting my precious time.\u00a0 This isn’t typically something I can replicate in normal, non-holiday break life, but maybe I can change my mindset (3-4pm is errand time, and that’s my focus) or something.<\/p>\n
