Well, okay, maybe not DOOOOOOOOOM! ...but doooooom? 😂 I have a horrible habit of losing track of time and/or focus so this little mini-challenge will be all about finishing setting up a system that will help me keep my eye on the ball-- err, challenges! Here are my tiny goals for the tiny challenge! 🏆 Goal 1 - SET GOALS I will pick the year long goal for 2022 for my Nerd Fitness challenges and then break it down by 5-week segments (based roughly on what time the challenges happened in 2021). I will pick measureable doable things, but I will allow myself leeway in how fast the overall goal is accomplished. If I bite off more than I can chew, I will have backup dinner plans in place! Goal 2 - Create BuJo pages What's on paper gets remembered! So I will use Google Drawings to continue to create (and tweak) my yearly/monthly/weekly/daily/project bullet journal pages. I will share them here and as I go through the challenges so other folks can use them if they're helpful. Sidequests Continue decluttering the house Continue doing ALL the stairs! Work on finding a way to doggie walk around the new available daylight Cleanup the treadmill, update the treadmill computer, and test out some things other than WoW that I can play while I walk Christmass prezzies creation time! Think about other goals for 2022 that aren't fitness related

So, historically I've been prone to leaping into Grand Plans that fail to get traction. I have a manic squirrel for a brain and am easily distracted by the shiny. (So. Much. Shiny!!) 1. Thus this first proper challenge back, I'm aiming to decide what my not-Grand goals are for 2022 and then play around with some plans on how best to track/achieve them. I have a pile of index cards with ideas and right now my main piles are: Health/Fitness, Art, Writing, Decluttering/Cleaning, Learning/Coding 2. Aim and bring up my 'I'm not thinking about it, it just happens' daily steps to a minimum of 2k a day through the Power Of Chores! (and decluttering). My current daily meanderings fluctuate from 1k-3k, so it shouldn't be that hard of a thing to manage. 3. Winnow off the Diet Coke so it's a 'migraine days only' sort of drink. To psych me up, here are all the things I've accomplished since I last did a NF challenge (many many moon ago): I got down to one Diet Coke a day (from 2-4 liters) and I drink a lot of water I've done a bunch of organizing of my art supplies so they are now in tupperware containers in the basement and easy to find I've lost 20-ish pounds, just by changing how I'm eating to something that's a better fit for how I like to eat (large meal in the middle of the day, less carbs) I did a lot of cleaning in the week off between jobs and I've done a good job maintaining that I picked up bullet journaling again in May and have been constantly experimenting to find things that work I've made crazy strides in fixing all the formatting issues with the blog and with adding images and summaries to the old Saturday Story Prompts posts! I've gotten a LOT better about marketing my art and ebooks and it looks like I may break even this year! (so the IRS won't hate me! 😅)

WOO!!!!
