Morning Mental Meanderings

Keeping Myself Sane

Every day for the past 2000+ days I have dictated into my computer what I call my morning mental meanderings.

This verbiage contains

• thoughts about the day before
• thoughts about the coming up day
• how I feel
• what and who I'm pissed at
• musings about people and things that are driving me crazy
• musings about people and things that are making me happy
• anything else I feel like talking about
• ideas for books, courses, and articles
• rehashing my dreams
• etc. etc. etc.

With apologies to Shakespeare — sanity sanity — all is my sanity.

I hate typing — so I use Google voice typing and yammer into Google Docs, save it into Scrivener, and then save it to a file.

I have a separate file for each year I have been doing this.
