oops

Up before noon this morning, hmmm... It gets more interesting that this, as I gradually move from being upset with myself towards being impartial. Anyway, this has to has some repercussions throughout the day. One of them is scarce attention, which can be observed when working with specific long time span exercises that involve attention. Or just now at the start of this day, during sitting.

I check emails. One of them discussing possible short visit to Vienna, between Christmas and a New Year. This would coincide with the final ECP meeting.

After light breakfast I leave to the post office to post the addressed envelope for the application form. The office is crowded, and outside of it? It has been raining, but now it's just slightly cold, the sky is greyish.

After some AAD guitar work, which, I could say, makes me feel alive, I check internet - a new AAD Theme is available. I look for the notes from my previous work with it.

It's 15.38 and just noticed it's already getting dark - what?! It's living in the North of England I don't take for granted that much anymore.

I get going with lunch, my sister calls. She's very pleased and excited about getting a new car soon, she also made some good moves toward getting a better job in Leeds. Great to hear all this and it makes me wonder how much information already the tone of our voice carries... Now food - I get a big serving, too big, I stop when had enough, and leave what is left for later.

I use internet next and spend some time on a very engaging website: www.liminalband.com Great stuff! and the info in Spanish is translated into English so it's also a good material for study.

I keep working on the piece, which I set myself to write this week. It continues to develop in it's own, slow pace... It's simple.

Then we are out with Marek to get some shopping in ASDA. It's already colder now, but as long as there's no evil northern wind it can't be too bad. I notice that shops are generally not the places where I want to be, this one is not the exception.

After this go to the bus station and meet Ania there. She has a Spanish-English dictionary and JGB's book on working the Themes for me. There's yet more of my stuff at her place. She also brings some goodies - pesto and mielone. Then she's off to her night shift.

More guitar, Spanish, dinner. We sit with Marek and Belen, relax and help each other with languages.

Then emails, I present Marek the progress with the piece, more emails. JOTD.

Post the journal, now winding down...
