Exercises

Now that Turkey Day is over (and there was a LOT of it here over the weekend), it's time for me to work off all that eating. We did take a few neighborhood walks over the last couple of days, but I need to make sure I keep it going. I need to start up the stretches and the exercising during the day again. I did recently check my weight for the first time in ages and I'm down more than I thought, but I can do more. Unfortunately we also have a lot of holiday snacks kicking about so that could pose an issue...Well! Either way, I think I can at least work off what I snarf down, yeah? Then come January I can get it going in the right direction again. It's more than just weight, of course...my joints are starting to ache because I Am An Old, but I'm pretty sure it's also because I'm a lot more sedentary than I should be -- the life of a writer, alas. I'd like to be more active again, and this should be a good way to get started on that.

I'm also thinking of writing exercises as well. This of course means making sure I hit my daily 750 Words again...I have a project that would work on that platform and I need to make good on my refocusing plan. Since I've circled back to scheduling my days, I'm feeling a lot more creative and productive, which is right where I need to be right now. I'm very glad that I decided to kickstart all this creativity again, because it was long past due. Not that I'm annoyed by all the time I wasted, because I really didn't waste it -- I had a lot of personal stuff I wanted to process that I'd put aside for WAY too long, and I'm glad I took the time to do that. I returned to the writing because I missed it and was ready for it again.

So! On that note, here's to hoping everything starts running on a normal schedule again...
