Laid off

Yesterday it was announced. Last day depends on when they can find replacement. I actually expected it since my work performance has stunk for several months now because of the depression.

I had plenty of energy yesterday, even did weeding in the garden and mowed the lawn for about 20-30 minutes total after work. Totally exhausted after that though, and exhausted today. I didn't sleep well last night. I'll still be working for another month. I've been good for awhile, but have zero energy today. I know I'm supposed to get my 20 minutes 3-4 times a week for the endorphins, but I don't have the energy to do that. I'm getting more like 10 minutes walking 2-3 times a week. The miserably hot weather hasn't helped with that.

Some good news, I'm not supposed to have caffeine because it can cause panic attacks, but I've been having a coffee in the morning for awhile to keep me going, and have not been having any negatives from that.

My Neverwinter Nights 2 project is near completion as well. Once that's finished up and in playtesters hands that will be another load off me. There wasn't any self pressure when the end was nowhere near. There's no deadline since it's just a for fun thing, but I want it to be done. The problem with what's left is it's all writing and I need to be in the mood for it. Making dungeons and forests and whatnot I can just do.
