Are you close to achieving your goals? Close is a relative term. More than goals, the tasks I need to successfully complete are more like involuntary life mandates and if I don't complete number one, the others will suffer or fail. 2. List something you could improve on this week. Getting more done in a given amount of time to satisfy number one above. 3. Is the glass half-full or half-empty? I can't tell if it is a glass. It's nice that it is more full than empty. But with the dewpoint of my situation, if I don't hurry it will evaporate. 4. Are you current on paps, mammograms, dentists & check-ups? I suppose I could substitute colonoscopy and prostate exams but that would be no anyhow and I haven't seen a dentist in 42 years and have all my teeth. Now that I said that....... 5. If you take medication, are you overdue for some maintenance? The only things I take are over-the-counter and I miss from time to time. Maintenance? Haven't been to a doctor in six years. Now that I said that..... 6. What is the last really nice thing you did for yourself? Decided it was about time I quit accommodating everyone for a while. Spent most of my life trying to accommodate others and it hasn't worked out as well as one might expect. Maybe later. Refer to item number one. How'd I do? <strong><em>TMS: I like your answers! Especially the part about not going to a dentist in 42 years. Wish I could say the same (and not NEED to go to the dentist).</em></strong> 1. Are you close to achieving your goals?
Close is a relative term. More than goals, the tasks I need to successfully complete are more like involuntary life mandates and if I don’t complete number one, the others will suffer or fail.

2. List something you could improve on this week.
Getting more done in a given amount of time to satisfy number one above.

3. Is the glass half-full or half-empty?
I can’t tell if it is a glass. It’s nice that it is more full than empty. But with the dewpoint of my situation, if I don’t hurry it will evaporate.

4. Are you current on paps, mammograms, dentists & check-ups?
I suppose I could substitute colonoscopy and prostate exams but that would be no anyhow and I haven’t seen a dentist in 42 years and have all my teeth. Now that I said that…….

5. If you take medication, are you overdue for some maintenance?
The only things I take are over-the-counter and I miss from time to time. Maintenance? Haven’t been to a doctor in six years. Now that I said that…..

6. What is the last really nice thing you did for yourself?
Decided it was about time I quit accommodating everyone for a while. Spent most of my life trying to accommodate others and it hasn’t worked out as well as one might expect. Maybe later. Refer to item number one.

How’d I do?

TMS: I like your answers! Especially the part about not going to a dentist in 42 years. Wish I could say the same (and not NEED to go to the dentist).
