I need to talk to myself about this. I am the last therapist I get to have. It’s time to think about some of these priorities. I have a whole lot of stuff I want to do in this life. I’m looking at my list of projects coming up and I feel overwhelmed and terrified about how I am going to get it done.

Through a fucking super human level of focus and scheduling. I have a variety of projects that I choose to have in my life. They are all important to me. Things like home educating my kids, growing a food forest, being part of the cycling community, helping people have access to green spaces in the city as developments are built, helping Highland Pride have a space for people who get very overwhelmed in loud and crowded spaces, helping my friend set up a teaching tour, spending time with friends who are coming to see me from very far away, finding ways to strengthen ties with people I won’t see soon but I will see someday, and cycling as far away from my house as I can as often as I can.

Yo, I gotta be fit for all that shit. You can’t make a rusted out jalopy race. You have to take care of every part of the engine from all the individual bolts to the brackets to the really important technical parts I can’t think of right now. Just stay with me here.
