She's a pound and a half, nearly.
This was 5 am after a bottle.

Now the not "cute puppy part" if you're still with me.

I'm still fighting big feelings about her and I know it's not her fault--one that's been nagging me is my wife's decision to get and keep her will be affectign me for the next ten to twleve years, or more.

And that eliminates my getting a dog of my own---again. I'll be in my late 70's when I might get another chance.

I know I need to tell her I feel this way, but I don't need a fight over it.

I've been reading #SelfTherapy by #JayEarley this week.
https://www.selfcapacities.com/self-therapy

I wanted to read it all the way through before doing the exercises in earnest. But I did start doing some informal work to test it out as I was reading.

Already had some significant insights and felt some healing.

I've been pretty sick since Friday and haven't had much ability to sit up or concentrate, but even with my current level of wonkiness, it's still been way more interesting and useful than I expected.

Now that I've finished the book, I'm going to go through it from the start and do the exercises properly.

I wrote on a fresh sheet of paper:
Mind Body Talk Money Time
Conceptualizing the basic elements required to build a life. The first 4 might be measured by volume of functionality (y-axis) over time (x-axis). Then again Time is such a tricky one. There are consequences to “having” more or less free time, such that even Time can seemingly be measured in both volume and duration. I’m hypothesizing. I’m sketching.
