So...I yelled at my professors less today than yesterday. I think that earns me a slightly better grade. Prof Thea was home sick from second grade. That was sad for her, she spent most of the day in her room listening to Dealing With Dragons on the Ipod. That made it easy not to yell, so I don't know if I should get credit for that or not.
All silliness aside, I do feel like today was a better day. I thought more about what I was choosing to spend my time on. That doesn't mean I played no games on my Ipod, but it does mean that I was consciously choosing to do so, at least most of the time. I put the professors to bed on my own, when normally Solomon and I team up for that. He had a bit more of his actual homework to complete, so rather than have it take until 9 or 9:30 for him to be finished, I went solo and he finished up simultaneously, and we were both done just after 8.
I worked hard not to let Solomon down today. I am too often selfish in doing what I want, and even more so, when I know Solomon is around and he picks up my slack. Today I was trying to be aware of what I chose to do, and only ask for help with my tasks if I actually needed the help. Too often I ask for help because I'm feeling lazy and I know he almost always says yes. So at least in that aspect I get an A, because I didn't do that once!
So Today, I was my imperfect self, trying hard to care for my family. I was less critical of Cirdan than I often am, I was fairly attentive to Thea, and I made a good supper. I didn't whine to Solomon that I have to work too hard (not much anyway), and I feel at the end of the day generally loving toward my family and kids. A bad day is usually marked by guilt as I try to go to sleep, and while I know I messed up several times today, overall I think I earned my B-....I think....Maybe I should outline some criteria for this class.....
