Also when they make jokes like "I promised my team they wouldn't be in another crossover" it amuses me so much. LOL, yeah, I love when they make jokes like that. I think I liked the 3rd episode more than the 2nd actually LOL, especially the cameos. The Lucifer cameo was a huge surprise. I was not expecting that one, but I loved it so much., and now I want a mini series with Lucifer and Constantine. That would be so fun to watch.

Kishi Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Can confirm that taking time to rest is good. But it's weird, too; one thing I struggle with a lot is external pressure on my times of rest. Like, if I set up an alarm clock, I know I'll wake up super early because there's something about that that just cues me toward waking up. I haven't figured out what it is yet - it doesn't appear to be chemical - so I can't solve it, but I do think that the pressure's a part of it. Which is all to say, you need to find a way toward R&R without feeling like it's something you're pressured to do. It'll interfere with your efforts if you do. 1 Quote Work like a farmer, train like an athlete, fight like a soldier. 2 Tim. 2:3-6 BATTLE! Link to comment

It's not really something I feel pressured to do, more like the opposite. I decide to take a break, or I tell myself I'm going to take a break, and then I turn around and say, "Well, but I can still do this, that and the other first, I should do that" and then the break/rest day never happens. So a rest day is something I need to figure out how to incorporate and also make sure I don't feel like I'm being lazy and unproductive. *** Saturday's stats: Fitness: 100% plan: - Yoga 20-30 minutes 3-4 times a week - Strength training 10 minutes once a week - Walking 30 minutes once a week ✔️ -- Walked twice this week instead of once. 10% plan: - Yoga 10 minutes - Strength training 5 minutes Nutrition: 100% plan: - Eat some fruit and veggies 2-3 times a week 10% plan: - Eat some fruit or veggies Intellectual: 100% plan: - Revise 1 and a half to 2 pages every day ✔️ -- Revised 3 pages.

Hi, thank you for checking in! I really appreciate it. Doing all right, I've got my updates below. *** Yesterday I was super exhausted so I decided it would be a rest day. We were just slow enough that I could leave work a little early, so I read for a while (finally got A Discovery of Witches from the library, I've been waiting for it for months after I saw the TV show. I'm thinking I like the show better, but the book's not too bad so far.) and watched a movie. Amazing how much free time I have when I'm not working all the time.

Arm strength though leaves a bit to be desired. - Walking 30 minutes once a week 10% plan: - Yoga 10 minutes - Strength training 5 minutes Nutrition: 100% plan: - Eat some fruit and veggies 2-3 times a week 10% plan: - Eat some fruit or veggies ✔️ -- Had one and a half servings of fruit. Getting a little better at least. I was expecting this one to happen once or twice a week, maybe, but so far I've been having at least one serving of fruit almost every day. Another yay. Intellectual: 100% plan: - Revise 1 and a half to 2 pages every day ✔️ -- Another 'revised all the pages' day. I had my writing mentor take a look at my last chapter and she gave me all kinds of good feedback, so I've gone back through the whole thing between yesterday and today. I think my problem was that I didn't have the villain's motivation in this scene fully fleshed out. Now that I do, it changes things. Like, a lot of things, LOL. Hopefully I can have it all fixed in the next few days. That will give me a better idea of how to move forward in the next chapter. - Write down 1 new plot point a week for my new outline 10% plan: - Revise half a page. Miscellaneous goals: - Read 1 book a week - Cook once this month - Go to bed half an hour early -- Only went to bed about 20 minutes early last night, but still better than nothing. I've been thinking about my goals for 2020. I think my fitness and nutrition goals will stay the same-ish for a while, but I'm considering my creativity/miscellaneous goals. I know I want to add more reading (and writing, of course, always the writing), but I'm debating whether I want to add a drawing goal again. I had one this year but then between the day job and working on my novel, it kind of fell by the wayside. I'm not sure if I want to add it again, but I miss it (not that I'm very good, mind, but it's fun). So, still debating. 😕 You're making great progress! I was thinking about drawing too. I'm very much a beginner though. 1 Quote L3 Human Ranger/Assassin Str. 6 Dex. 2 Sta. 1 Con. 12 Wis. 8 Cha. 3 https://www.nerdfitness.com/character/58014 Motto: Where there is life, there is hope.

I'm very much a beginner though. Thank you! I've drawn off and on over the years so I'm not quite a beginner, but it's not something I've ever done seriously. However, I have some drawing how-to books I've never really looked at and that I'd like to make use of so I'd like to make it more of a habit. *** I had planned to do all this work today but decided after I got off work that I didn't want to do anything. It's Christmas Eve, dang it, and I wanted to enjoy it. So I binge watched a few episodes of The Gifted season 2 and Legacies season 1 while I wrapped presents. I'm telling myself not to regret the downtime, but it's hard. Oh, and I also did weights for a few minutes, had 2 servings of fruit and I wrote some notes for this chapter. Anyway, hope everyone had a great Christmas Eve and that you all have a great Christmas tomorrow (for those who celebrate). 2 Quote New Battle Log, Old Battle Log, Current Challenge 2022 Challenges: Challenge 1, Challenge 2, Challenge 3, Challenge 4 2021 Challenges: Challenge 1, Challenge 2, Challenge 3, Challenge 4, Challenge 5, Challenge 6 2020 Challenges: Challenge 1, Challenge 2, Challenge 3, Challenge 4, Challenge 5, Challenge 6, Challenge 7 Link to comment
fitnessgurl Posted December 25, 2019 Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 I went to the bookstore today & ordered this: It has some nice illustrations in it which I might try to draw. 3 Quote L3 Human Ranger/Assassin Str. 6 Dex. 2 Sta. 1 Con. 12 Wis. 8 Cha. 3 https://www.nerdfitness.com/character/58014 Motto: Where there is life, there is hope.
