Schedule Day 2
So yesterday was my first day following a full day schedule. It went pretty well, especially seen as how I had to work. Being at work kind of takes care of the schedule for 8 hours or so.
I felt pretty accomplished by the time I got home last night. I think it's because it's been hard for me to manage my time on a day to day basis lately. Without full time work I seem to hardly notice what time it is, and how little I'm doing in the time that I'm wasting. It seems to be greatly affecting everything I do. Anyways, yesterday was a good day, and I count it in the win category, even though I had more George Bluth, Sr problems. George Bluth, Sr, by the way, is the PC that I'm building for school right now.
Today is not a win though. I pretty much failed right off the bat. In my defense, I didn't realize it was going to happen. I left the schedule open for the most part today because of the problems with George Bluth, Sr. I woke up this morning and turned my laptop on while I was still laying in bed, which is where the fail started. That being said, I had the best intentions when I opened it. I had hoped to catch my friend Charlie this morning to see if I could grab his power supply so I could swap it out with mine (trouble shooting step).
As luck would have it, I did catch him, and I decided to meet him first thing. So I hopped out of bed and ran over there instead of sticking to the morning routine schedule. Skipped breakfast, shower, and all that to go get it. I tried to start the schedule over once I got back home, but it pretty much fell apart.
I spent the afternoon trying to trouble shoot George Bluth, Sr more. Came to the conclusion that the motherboard was bad, and now I have to send that back and wait for the new one. For those of you that care about what's going on with that. I'm hoping to get the new one by the end of the week.
I realize now that I have to adhere to the schedule from the start. I give myself 5 minutes in my schedule to wake up and get out of bed. I have to stick to that. I'm a hard person to keep on task (with life stuff), and it starts with me first thing in the morning. I feel that if I can get out of the bed within the first 5 minutes of waking up is a victory. It's nice to start the day with a little victory.
After the wake up is breakfast then bathroom time (you know, shit/shower/shave time). The bathroom time is the key point in my day I have realized in the last few weeks. I've noticed that no matter how little I want to do when I wake up, if I can get myself in the shower, the rest of the day will fall into place. The shower is what truely wakes me up and gets me going in the morning. That's one of the reasons ya shower in the morning right, to wash the sleep away?
So hopefully tomorrow I can keep this all in mind when I wake up. I know there is nothing I can do for my computer tomorrow as far as fixing it. I do have to take in my motherboard to be shipped out tomorrow, and I have to pick up an ethernet cable and an HDMI cable. I also, and more importantly, need to do more reading for school work. Hopefully I will be having lunch with my mom tomorrow at my Classic Slice as well.
So I have my work cut out for me tomorrow. Here we go.
Sorry for the poorly written blog. booooo.
