📅 Daily Check-in - July 11, 2026 💭 Reflection: Later today my wife and I will be leaving for Germany again to attend my mom's funeral (we were there a few weeks ago for a vacation and to see my mom while she was still alive) - she looked like she was in better physical shape than last time I saw her, 3 years ago. She died peacefully and painfree in her sleep last Monday. I did my morning walk and decided to ring the doorbell at Kerstin's house around the corner, just to find out if she is alive and doing ok. I had not seen her for quite a while - we sometimes meet when she walks her cute MaltiYork dog Layla past our house. We had a very open talk about ADD, ADHD, Autism, and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (Kerstin's daughter Emma and my daughter Jennifer both have it). I tried to be a good listener, I could sense Kerstin's exhaustion. She is drawn between two worlds: her German home, and her Canadian home. She never got along with her mom, and most of the hoped for parental love and recognition came in the form of non-acceptance and criticism. I will visit her again when we are back. There is also the prospect of getting to look after her dog Layla from time to time - a prospect I am really looking forward to. I encouraged her to use us as dog sitters whenever she needs. Now I might take a 20 minute nap, and then finish packing. The plan is to get picked up by an Uber at 16:30. In spite of the sad reason, I am actually looking forward to travelling to Germany again - quite a bit. 📊 Wellbeing Scores: 😊 Happiness: 7/10 ⚡ Energy: 6/10 🎯 Focus: 5/10 😌 Calmness: 5/10 🌙 Sleep Quality: 3/10 🔥 Motivation: 6/10 ⭐ Average: 5.3/10 ✅ Activities from yesterday: 🚿 Cold Shower 😴 Nap ☀️ Morning Sunlight 💧 Stayed Hydrated 🌬️ Breathwork 🌿 Grounding 🚶 Walk 🥗 Healthy Eating 🍺 No Alcohol ☕ No Late Caffeine 💊 Took Supplements 🥦 Ate Vegetables 🧘♂️ Meditation 📝 Journaling 💚 Gratitude Practice ✨ Positive Mindset 🎯 Deep Work 📚 Reading 🎸 Skill Practice 👥 Quality Time
