BlackTezca Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Yay!! Socializing!! Awesome you've been getting together with fellow photogs! Also, you are drinking quite a bit of water, but I doubt you're at a risk of drinking too much water...I'm not sure how you would be get there.... Also, somewhat related but pretty sure it makes me a horrible influence too: next weekend is Collaboration Fest up here in Denver. Really excited cause it's a bunch of breweries getting together to make unique beers just for the festival itself. Yummy! 1 Quote Link to post

Strickland5 Posted March 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Felt better after hanging out with friends?!It was get out of my own way situation ... I tend to get down when left to my own devices and nothing actively engaging me ... I work hard to avoid it but sometimes it happens and you just have to ride the melancholy. Quote Link to post

A+ to be sure139/112 124%124% Life quest - Socialize with other Photogs!Half way through the challenge and I'm halfway to completing this goal! 50%50% WEEK3 WRAP UP (MID TERM REPORT )QUEST 1Looking over things I'm overall doing well here with weeks 1 and 3 had the goal met. Week 2 slipped as I was sick for two days. I'm pondering upping the mileage but I'm worried about old injuries coming out to play and with Ragnar in a month I need to keep myself in proper shape. QUEST 2THIS is eluding me ... my weeks are too social and I'm falling back into bad habits. Time to double down and get out of my own way QUEST 3I'm solid here ... water isn't really an issue it seems even though I thought it was. Consider me pleasantly surprised. QUEST 4A few canceled events didn't stop me here. Still a few more events to attend to meet the goal. 3 Quote Link to post
shaar Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 That beer is vicious, man! I'm learning to be social without drinking. It's HARD. You can do it though, conscious choices. Go go week 4!! 1 Quote Link to post
