Jupiter

I've read 5 books so far.

Portland sounds like a cool place. I hope you get to go back someday.

Thursday/Friday/Saturday's stats: Fitness: 100% plan: - Yoga 20-30 minutes 3 times a week ✔️ -- Did 25 minutes. - Strength training 10 minutes once a week - Walking 30 minutes once a week ✔️ 10% plan: - Yoga 10 minutes - Strength training 5 minutes Decided Thursday would be a rest day, did yoga on Friday and walked 30 minutes today. I think I'm going to switch up the schedule a bit and make Tuesdays and Thursdays rest days. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday will be workout days, and I'll do whatever I'm able to do on the weekends (probably walking and another yoga session like usual). I want to start using my time a little more efficiently and try to get the most out of my workouts, and I think this will help with that. We'll see how it works for now. Nutrition: 100% plan: - Eat 1 serving of fruit and veggies 2-3 times a week 10% plan: - Eat 1-2 servings of fruit or veggies every day ✔️ -- Ate 3 servings of fruit Thursday and 3 on Friday, nothing today. Intellectual: 100% plan: - Revise 1 and a half to 2 pages every day ✔️ -- Ugh, struggled with this on Thursday and Friday. Work mostly consisted of me staring at the page so I feel like I didn't get much done. But, at the same time, I worked through the scene (the tough one that I took a break from and came back to) in my head and took some notes, which helped me for today. I revised 2 pages, but it's still a bit slow going as I have a couple different moving parts. But I think I'm getting there. - Write down 1 new plot point a week 10% plan: - Revise half a page. Miscellaneous goals: - Read 30 minutes a day ✔️ -- Read a lot Thursday and Friday, not very much today. - Cook breakfast on Sundays - Go to bed half an hour early ✔️ -- Went to bed early the last two nights but I feel like I didn't get much sleep. Not sure why. 😕 - Draw once a week - De-clutter the junk room once a week ✔️ -- Got rid of one box full of stuff finally. Only a billion more to go.

I'm like:

Thank you all so much for your comments and support. You have no idea how much it means to me. ❤️ ❤️ *sending virtual hugs to everyone* As for the guy, I'm going to take the advice of all the very smart and awesome people here and be glad that he showed his true self early, see this as a good learning experience and move on.

I know things have been a bit rough but you're doing great! Keep it up!

I've noticed that when this happens to me, sometimes either pushing through a tiny little bit at a time until it passes or just taking a break for a few days can help. I hope things work themselves out soon.

Ugh, I totally understand. And it seems to work in my family LOL. Sometimes people are just going to do what they are going to do regardless of what anybody tells them and it's just best to let it go. I'm sorry you are dealing with family drama.

Awww, super cute!!! Honestly, as impulsive choices go, that's not a bad one to make. And that's a nice kettle bell! Been catching up on your thread, and a lot's been said already, so I just want to say 'you got this'!

I used to be like this too. At some point though I realized that life is too short to do things that I don't like, so if I don't like it, I stop and move on to the next thing.

Hey, how is your challenge going?

Agree with @Defining, it's not horrible! Life isn't going to remain the same every day and sometimes the mark of success is how well we can roll with it. Maybe you can have a plan for when things get hectic and just do the things on your list in smaller/shorter sessions? Like, if you only have 10 minutes for a workout, just do what you can in that 10 minutes before moving on to the next thing? Also, I love the plants! LOL nice!

Thank you! This helped me get through yoga today LOL.

Wednesday's stats: Fitness: 100% plan: - Yoga 20-30 minutes 3 times a week ✔️ -- Did 30 minutes. It was one of the harder videos, but I pushed and I made it through. - Strength training 10 minutes once a week - Walking 30 minutes once a week 10% plan: - Yoga 10 minutes - Strength training 5 minutes Nutrition: 100% plan: - Eat 1 serving of fruit and veggies 2-3 times a week 10% plan: - Eat 1-2 servings of fruit or veggies every day ✔️ -- Only 1 serving of fruit today, but that's okay. Just trying to get more consistent with everything. I feel like I haven't been as consistent this month as I'd like, so something to work on. Intellectual: 100% plan: - Revise 1 and a half to 2 pages every day ✔️ -- Rewrote a few more pages. Nearly done with the first draft. It's absolutely terrible, but I think I have all the elements I want at this point and I'll be able to prune and fine-tune when I start revising it. But once I finish the rewrite I need to go back to the previous chapter and finish revising that first. Have to admit, though, had some trouble with focus today. - Write down 1 new plot point a week 10% plan: - Revise half a page. Miscellaneous goals: - Read 30 minutes a day ✔️ -- Finished the book. That's 5/40 books for the year so far. The only problem now is having to wait for the sequel from the library. - Cook breakfast on Sundays - Go to bed half an hour early - Draw once a week - De-clutter the junk room once a week So, the guy I've been talking to has stopped texting me. I sent him a few texts over the weekend, but got no response, and he hasn't texted since then (which is not like him, or at least, what I know of him so far, he's pretty chatty), so I'm assuming I've been ghosted. I don't know if it was something I said or didn't say, or what. And I don't know how long I should wait until I know for sure I've been ghosted, but I don't know, seems pretty definite at this point. So, I guess that's that.

Monday/Tuesday's Stats: Fitness: 100% plan: - Yoga 20-30 minutes 3 times a week - Strength training 10 minutes once a week ✔️ -- It was a little hard to get through this session yesterday, but I had slightly less trouble than last time, so I'm counting that as a win. Decided today would be a rest day. - Walking 30 minutes once a week 10% plan: - Yoga 10 minutes - Strength training 5 minutes Nutrition: 100% plan: - Eat 1 serving of fruit and veggies 2-3 times a week 10% plan: - Eat 1-2 servings of fruit or veggies every day ✔️ -- 2 servings of fruit yesterday, 1 today. Accidentally skipped dinner last night, which was a mistake, as I ended up feeling a bit sick last night. Lesson re-learned, do not skip meals. Intellectual: 100% plan: - Revise 1 and a half to 2 pages every day ✔️ -- Rewrote a few pages yesterday, and now I'm rewriting those same pages again tonight as I got a new/much better idea of how to frame the scene so I'm redoing some of it. - Write down 1 new plot point a week 10% plan: - Revise half a page. Miscellaneous goals: - Read 30 minutes a day -- Will do once I log off. - Cook breakfast on Sundays - Go to bed half an hour early ✔️ - Draw once a week - De-clutter the junk room once a week ETA: Just saw the backdoor pilot for the Green Arrow and the Canaries spinoff. I'm so ready for this series.
