Silmarilliane Posted Monday at 11:04 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 11:04 AM Oh hi! Hope you're all well Last challenge as passed, but it was super minimal and now I am potentially half a stone up from where I was (I didn't weigh first thing so will confirm tomorrow) so I really need to get back on track with calorie counting and exercise. I started a new job at the beginning of the month and feel mostly settled. I managed to get covid last week so have been going a bit insane in the house by myself, but have had some video chats with people and focusing on getting better for the singing competition I have this weekend(!) So this challenge is going back to my older format of Food Exercise Sleep, so I'm just copying across from challenge 43 and will tweak. FOOD Under 1600 calories for the day 🥗 = 10pts Going slightly over for emotional needs 🍫 = 5pts Overeating one meal 🍻 = 0pts Overfooding all day = -10pts Hydration! 💧 = 5pts Maximum = 525pts SLEEP Reading and light off at 11pm 📚 = 10pts Light off at 11pm 🛏️ = 5pts Bed after 11pm 💡 = 0pts Scrolling instead of sleep 📲 = -10pts Maximum = 350pts EXERCISE Morning exercise before work 🏃♀️ = 10pts Walk at least 30mins 🚶♀️ = 10pts Unspecified other exercise = 5pts Daily Darebee 🐝 = 5pts Maximum indefinite but should be at least 500pts ⭐ 5pt bonus for brave things or where I feel I deserve it. Maximum ~1500 and as I'm starting recovering from covid, I'll put pass rate at 1000 5 Quote Level 43 Rogue, 2024 ROADMAP Welcome to the Dungeons of Doom; locate the Amulet of Yendor ♀ on Level 26 Challenges: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46 Link to comment

Silmarilliane Posted Wednesday at 03:55 PM Author Report Share Posted Wednesday at 03:55 PM OH! I only went and finished my reread of Wheel of Time! I looked back in my messages and I started them again (plus the tor.com readalong/commentary) in November 2021, so that's a good solid 3yrs of reading to get through them again!

Sovalis Posted Wednesday at 04:50 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 04:50 PM Congrats on getting through Wheel of Time! I am lost somewhere in book six or seven. We listen to them as audiobooks when we take road trips which is not an effective means of retaining information for me - trips are too spaced out for me to remember what was going on. 😅 Quote Past Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16 Current Challenge: #17 “Finish each day and be done with it.

You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson Link to comment

Harriet Posted yesterday at 07:39 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 07:39 AM Oh gosh, I hope the covid was short and you're recovered now? Hmmm. I gave up on wheel of time and started reading mistborn instead. It was a good choice but now they're all gone and it only took like a week. That's one thing I can say about wheel of time; there was always more. 1 Quote Let cheese and oxen and mead crowd out our secret desires for power and domination - Harriet the Viking Just be bold, fluid and unapologetic, not small, hairy and indecisive - Harriet the Artist You can absorb me! - Harriet the Contextless Guru Link to comment

Yes, I've started them. I bought them as a package with the mistborn trilogy. I'm not yet quite as hooked, but perhaps I will be. 1 Quote Let cheese and oxen and mead crowd out our secret desires for power and domination - Harriet the Viking Just be bold, fluid and unapologetic, not small, hairy and indecisive - Harriet the Artist You can absorb me! - Harriet the Contextless Guru Link to comment

That's one thing I can say about wheel of time; there was always more. Mistborn is on my list to read, though I have a lot in my pile to read and I don't get all that much time to read, so that might be a next year task...

Silmarilliane Posted 5 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 5 hours ago Ok, I'm away at the singing competition weekend so not doing amazingly with the challenge - will do a full catch up when I'm back but basically, scrolled unnecessarily the first night I was here, late to bed last night and food hasn't been awful but hasn't been great. I've got a decent amount of walking in but that's it on the exercise front. I'm just in a cafe waiting for our chorus rehearsal so will try to catch up on some other forum posts! Oh, my quartet sang yesterday and a lil bonus for myself: Spoiler One for the bucket list - sing on stage commando 2 Quote Level 43 Rogue, 2024 ROADMAP Welcome to the Dungeons of Doom; locate the Amulet of Yendor ♀ on Level 26 Challenges: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46 Link to comment
