It was not for lack of material: I played a pretty good game of poker on Tuesday, worked out every day this week and walked one morning, even as I am still recovering from my recent illness. I even found out that my trainer’s wife is related to Mary Todd Lincoln.
I also celebrated my wife’s birthday today by making a dolce de leche cake from a recipe by the owner of the Momofuku Milk Bar, Christina Tosi. I also made ravioli lasagna, cucumber salad and focaccia, all of which were very successful.
The whole family attended the birthday dinner, including the bubby, who was in high spirits. He is now actively imitating us and trying real hard to speak, not quite there yet, however.
I guess I’m slowing down a little because I am worrying in tbe back of my head about my professional obligations, and spending time writing in this blog seems like an indulgence until I finish what I need to finish.
I plan to spend most of tomorrow on that matter, mostly for my own mental stability. I read somewhere that the way to overcome anxiety is to directly confront your fears. I almost never do that, however, preferring to tamp down my trepidation until I can’t.
But I’m hitting that point now, so tomorrow is a work day.
I will report back on whether I actually do it tomorrow or if I find another reason not to.
Sigh…
