(no subject)

Reassurance was good - thanks guys :) Something about expressing boundaries/preferences send me into a nosedive of paranoia. Whether that's my upbringing, my Englishness or just being human... I don't know. But I'm going to work on expressing these things a bit more often rather than getting (internally) cranky.

My ankle is mostly fixed. I ran a couple of miles today and it's not protesting too much yet. Steinergarten committee was also ok, despite my dread. Compared to the overlong ego-fests that I was used to in my previous job, this committee is a walkover. There was some pressure to take up a committee position, which I resisted. I may "cave in" at a later date, but there's no point in taking on something when you have no idea WTF it's all about. A committee where I'm not too bored and I feel safe to express myself and be a useful member is probably a good thing in my life right now.

At the moment, my main problem is morning crankiness. I think I'm just overtired right now, but I don't like getting irritable at the sprog. I found a 200mm lens in a box, and did some work on the garden.

All is pretty much ok.
