Got up before the cats actually woke me up for once, which almost never happens with these two. Used the extra time to get the walk in before anything else could pull it off the list.
Cooked again tonight instead of ordering out — chicken, whatever vegetables were still decent in the fridge, nothing that took real effort. Small thing, but with interview prep eating into most evenings lately, just managing dinner feels like it counts for something.
Shoulders are still tight from sitting at the laptop running through practice questions. I keep telling myself to get up and stretch in between and keep forgetting until I’m already stiff.
Tried reading before bed instead of reaching for my phone. Got through a few pages before my eyes gave out, which is apparently where I’m at most nights now.
The younger cat decided that was a reasonable moment to want attention, so the reading didn’t last long anyway.
Small stuff, but it’s the stuff that’s actually happening, which has to count for more than the plan I’m not sticking to perfectly.
