stormdogI prioritized my perception of my health and mental state today by deciding to take a short ride after class instead of going home and working. I think a given amount of work tends to expand to fit available time for me, so I decided I'd just make the time I have this evening enough time to get my response paper done for tomorrow.
That decision feels good. I plan to continue prioritizing a little time for self-care that way, even if I still don't know where I'd find time to meet friends and be social. If I have to give up everything else in my life to be successful at school, I don't think it's a reasonable path. Hopefully I'll find out that I can do more than just work and still pass classes. But I also need to concentrate better on work when I *do* get to it, so I'm going to close this stuff down and write now!
