			<title>A Sheepish Hello...</title>
			<link>http://www.psychiatricsurvivors.org/weblog/index.php?entry=entry080624-143441</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Hello everyone. Assuming there are some people still reading this blog ;o) I am the replacement volunteer today. PSO has gotten way more busy since I worked here. Many more calls, more activities etc. It is good to see that PSO is growing and that our funders are taking PSO seriously. It is a needed resource. As a person who only comes in once in awhile, just knowing that the office is here when I feel like coming in is a great comfort.  ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The webpage will be updated very soon to include the Wellness Project. A new link will appear in the sidebar.

			<title>Hello Everyone</title>
			<link>http://www.psychiatricsurvivors.org/weblog/index.php?entry=entry070815-154734</link>
			<description><![CDATA[I have not been doing any blogging lately because I have no computer! Anyways, for those who don’t know I am no longer working at PSO. My anxiety level is just too high. I applied for Ontario Works and it took 4 hours! I will also be applying for ODSP. I will continue to come to PSO as a member and maybe to volunteer in the near future. ]]></description>

			<title>On Procrastination</title>
			<link>http://www.psychiatricsurvivors.org/weblog/index.php?entry=entry070711-124654</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Sometimes it is very hard. To keep on doing the things you know will make you feel better but just keep putting it off. Some of my common excuses are:<br /><br />I&#039;m tired<br />I&#039;m busy<br />Why bother?<br />It wont work this time<br /><br />Maybe it is the law of inertia. You&#039;ll just keep doing what you&#039;re already doing. Sometimes it is just plain laziness. But when I do the things that keep me well I am always glad that I did. It is worth the effort.  ]]></description>

			<title>Internet Interruptus</title>
			<link>http://www.psychiatricsurvivors.org/weblog/index.php?entry=entry070706-102554</link>
			<description><![CDATA[This week the internet was down throughout the whole building and what first seemed like a pain turned out to be quite pleasant. Usually we get heaps of e-mails every day; a fair number of them are accompanied by those red exclamation marks indicating urgency. Almost all seem to require answers of some sort. So I spend part of my day chained to a computer trying to respond somewhat sensibly to this deluge. This week I was amazed at how much time was freed up by not having access. I got caught up on stuff that I’ve been wanting to get done and, best of all, I got to spend more time with our members. Being available for real live humans for face- to- face interaction has been wonderful and reminds me why I do this job in the first place. I know people missed their e-mailing, chatting and games but I found it a nice people break and we all got to chat with each other instead. <br /><br />The secret is to remember how nice it all was when the internet comes back on line and a weeks worth of e-mails flood across my screen. :o) <br /><br />p.s. Happy Birthday, Werner!]]></description>
