There will be no Weekend or Midweek Update next week, as we will be on vacation, visiting friends and family back east! I'll be afk and basically filling up on Dunkies, maple-flavored things, and taking a bajillion pictures of the foliage. Yay!
Not too much to report here at the moment...the Day Job is what it is, so I'll just keep it at that for now.
As for writing: coming along fine with the revision work for In My Blue World, slowly but surely. I've already deleted a scene and inserted a new one, I've cleaned up a lot of the prose in the first few scenes, and doing what I can to fix up the continuity. There's a lot of fiddly bits that need straightening out (using the correct POV pronouns, for instance), but thankfully I have them all flagged in my notes.
As for the personal end of things, I'm still not entirely sure if I've lost any weight yet, given that I haven't bothered to weigh myself in ages, but I *think* there's a bit of an improvement going on. This process is so slow people usually don't notice right away. I feel healthier, though -- despite my lower back giving me a twinge earlier this week. I haven't done any heavy lifting or overexertion lately, so I'm pretty sure that's due to me possibly doing my crunch exercises incorrectly at some point, or that I slouch like a champ when I'm at my desk. Still... I'm getting there. Soon enough.
Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
