Feb. 12th, 2015 12:21 amOkay, today I did live off sugar to keep going. Still not going to have the energy to do physics in between everything yaaaay. Tomorrow at least looks on the surface of things like it will be less busy, so maybe? At this rate I'm not even hoping for it though.
I did manage to get the writing done, and even got some promo copy for some other stories done, so progress happened there. I managed to make a healthy dinner with the meat the boy took out, and tried what appears to be called Israeli couscous? (Not being in Israel I can't speak to whether that's a fancy label to appeal to the hippies or truth in advertising.) Whatever it is, it still tastes good and has a good texture, so sure, why not. Yay trying new things! And I got another scene tossed into the desert novel that I'm less sure about, but I expect it'll clean up nicely.
Wednesday Reads
Once I pick up my library books I will have five books out from the library, in addition to the sixth... seventh. I'm reading on Kindle. At the moment I'm reading The Prince on my iPhone of all things in the morning between exercises and things, I'm reading Sanctum on the Kindle in my browser at work in between the really mindnumbing tasks like labeling 225 pottery tools (I'm not kidding, that's what I did in the back half of today) and then I've got an Eddings and a Kate Elliott by my bed from the library that I'm going to try and get through if not this weekend then next, and two more books from the library. Plus the reference book I have to find time for at some point. So, yes. I have MANY READINGS. All of them, in fact. It's a damn good thing I read fast.
This weeks' word count stands at 7,069, the first time I've made word count this year, and hopefully not at all the last. And I'm really happy with most of these words, too! I haven't gotten back to the Grant Ward Redemption Epic which makes me glad I didn't post it anywhere yet, maybe eventually. But all other projects are slowly creeping forward.
Exercise continues apace. I do need to get better about starting exercise on time, though, to see if I really can cram two rounds of the one yoga routine, one of the other, ballet, grand plies, releves, belly dancing exercises all into the alleged exercise time. I should be able to, it's just the discipline. I'm also contemplating adding a minimal number of situps and punches for some variety, that might replace the port de bras with arm weights in the morning. Decisions. Anyway, in the coming week it's just continuing to get back into routines and get more efficient.
And the first key to doing that is an on time bedtime, which I am so not doing tonight oops. You'd think as tired as I have been and am all day that I would have gone to bed early. Except you'd be wrong. So, so very wrong.
