Thursday

I woke up this morning, made Buster's lunch and breakfast. We chatted a bit before he lft the house at 6:50AM. I went back to bed. Still feeling sick, hacking up phlem and blowing my nose alot I got up at 10:30AM. I am trying to get out of my funk, so after my shower I listened to the CD that came with my Franklin Planner. It's useful for me to listen to this information, even though I am familure with it.

I am starting the process all over again to really maximize the Franklin "System". At the core, is Identifying my Governing Values - What Matters Most.

He got home at 2:45PM and asked what I did today. I told him I was trying to put some new principles on my belief window. We have listened to the Manageing Personal Change tape together, so he is familure with the language and ideas.

This evening we went to the Metropolitan Grill (Best Steak House in the City) for dinner. I had a hundred dollar gift certificate from a gig I did there a month ago. We ate like kings and enjoyed each others company. I love him so much and I am happy that he lives with me again. I'm glad that we speak frankly about drugs and everything else. He is doing better in school and we went over a stack of school work this evening.

After dinner we took a walk on the beach. I wanted to walk more but it was cold and lightly raining. With my cold and all, I thought it best to cut the walk shot.

It's 9:23PM now and he said he was calling it a night. 6:00AM rolls around before we know it and start the process over again. I think I will crash too. I want to stop going back to bed after he leaves in the morning and be more productive with my morning hours. So, there you have it - Goodnight
