A healthier outlook

So one of my resolutions this year was to avoid falling into the easy traps of cynicism and negativity. I found myself doing so more often than I'd like over the past few years and as I've said before: if I'm getting sick of my own kvetching, I'm sure you've been sick of it for much longer. I might be testy with a coworker or complain about how one of them has been irritating, but I'm choosing not to let it ruin my day. I spent far too much time in the past dwelling on that kind of thinking and it gets me nowhere.

Other than that, I've been doing pretty well. Not being down on myself for wasting a work break reading Discord, because I'd like to be better at connecting with my friends again. And speaking of work, now that the weather has finally improved, I plan to walk to and from work more often and not rely on the car or bus as much as I have. Yes, even when I've had a busy day! 

Added to that, I'm off to see a doctor on Friday about my right ear and possible hearing issues. I doubt it's infected but lately it's felt like whenever things are noisy my hearing in that ear becomes a bit of white noise mush with a slight ring. I'm not worried but I am concerned enough that I'd like to make sure it's nothing bad. And to prepare myself it it is. (Hell, if I need a hearing aid, so be it. I'm just expecting to keep listening to tunage for decades to come is all.) 

Hope everyone has a good week!
