Week #2 Goals Update

The second week of 2022 has certainly had its ups and downs, and my goal work has reflected that. I did end up going back to work this week, but I was only able to manage two days in-person, although I was able to work the other three from home. My bout with COVID-19 is not quite over, despite the fact that I’ve been officially asymptomatic. It seems that my tendency toward extremely long recoveries from respiratory diseases is definitely still in place.

I also had a rather personally painful experience as a result of the online reactions to the very poorly reported comments by Pope Francis on January 5th. Fortunately, though, I was able to go to Adoration the day after it happened, and my experience there was much better than usual. It helped me work my way through it mentally and come to a resolution about my feelings and how I intend to react (or, more properly, not react).

There are also some significant wins in the goals work, too, even if they’re not as much as I’d hoped for. Today is a day I’m having to remind myself that sometimes, any win counts.
