MsFitz Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I just read Steve's Epic Quest of Awesomeness today and it inspired me to start my own quest! I already completed the first one. It may not seem that big, but it is to me. I'm a private person so sharing my quest with someone IRL is a huge accomplishment for me.I will be adding to this list as I come up with more awesome, epic goals!Most missions will give 20% exp to my goal. Partically hard, costly, or EPIC ones will be more.

MsFitz Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I'm going to pick a few to focus on for now. Do a pullup and get $1000 in my savings account. I think the bent over rows I'm doing in Stronglifts will help with the pullup. I just need to find a bar. I'll take the kids to the playground Thursday (no school) and practice. I plan on buying a bar, but I have a plan that won't cost money (see savings goal lol). I earn Amazon gift cards online and I'm about half way to a pull up bar for my door frame now.

MsFitz Posted September 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Well, I can't do a pull-up. I wonder if I can use my weight bench and bar to do inverted rows. I'll figure that out tonight Quote “Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.†― Henry Ford Epic Quest First Challenge Second Challenge Third Challenge Link to comment
MsFitz Posted January 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 I have a pull up bar! It swings down too, so you can work your way up. I still think It's going to be awhile before I can do one, let alone 10. But I'll keep working on it! I can do a few good pushups now. Won't be long until I hit 10 of those! 1 Quote “Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.†― Henry Ford Epic Quest First Challenge Second Challenge Third Challenge Link to comment
MsFitz Posted September 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 I need to edit this! Also, I decided why wait to buy a house to have a garden. We made a garden box and I'm planning to plant a few things this weekend! 1 Quote “Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.†― Henry Ford Epic Quest First Challenge Second Challenge Third Challenge Link to comment

MsFitz Posted September 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 I'm not sure yet because the growing season is different in Florida. But I have a book lol. I'm hoping for tomatoes, broccoli, beets, carrots, basically all my favorites.

MsFitz Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 I came so close to squatting my body weight. The only problem was, my body weight went up!! I was 135lbs, but by the time I squatted 140, I was up to 146lbs. So close!

MsFitz Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Cleaned up a bit, added some new missions (even my super secret one I don't usually talk about), and made it look nicer (I think). I added a bonus mission category for those things that life throws my way and I say "Hell Yeah!" to, no matter how scary it seemed at first (Camp). I also made camp count as 100% of my exp because it was so amazingly far out of my comfort zone, yet it was so worth it!

MsFitz Posted October 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Garden level complete!Back row is Brussels sprouts. Then hot pepper, 2 tomato plants (one is yellow!), then yellow bell pepper. I have seeds in for 2 cauliflower, 2 broccoli, and 2 squares full of carrots. Two are empty for the beet seeds I apparently forgot to get.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. Excuse any short replies, please.
