- Be fit
- For the past two weeks (except Sundays), I have gotten up at 5am to spend about an hour working out on the weight machine. So far, success has been based on my not giving up. Weight loss has been negligible. My exercise has been anaerobic lifting, lower weights for more reps. My hope was that it would mean a better visit to the bathroom scale, but so far that has not been the case. It may be that I’m adding muscle and losing some weight at a relatively equal pace.
- I started back on the No S diet, although its been more of a guideline than a rule. I’m still avoiding unnecessary snacking, but I’m still trying to adjust to the new exercise routine. I’ve also been taking Sundays as a free-food day. A lot of this is because we tend to eat out the most on Sunday.
- Goal status: Good.
- Write More
- Three posts total for an average of less than one per week. I noticed that working out has significantly cut into blogging time. I’m not sure how to shift to an alternate writing time, but I’m hoping to make better with the writing. I have a few ideas for new blogs: one for the business as well as another idea in the works. However, I feel I have to close out some previous commitments before starting new blogs.
- Goal status: Poor.
- Remember important annual events
- No events to remember. Success!
- Goal status: Satisfactory
- Deliberate Dates
-
- Since we’ve been back from vacation, I haven’t taken the time to date my wife officially, but we have been watching Lost – Seasons 1 and 2 – on DVD on Saturday nights (with a romantic basket full of laundry to be folded). She thinks Lost jumped the shark at the start of Season 2, but continues to watch it because its some specific time together.
- With the boys, it has been harder. Soccer and t-ball seasons have begun. That’s five nights a week spent driving to practices or games of one sport or the other. That leaves little time to deliberately do things with the boys. Even geocaching has been difficult to organize. I took a bicycle ride with the Youngest today, which was a very nice time together.
- Goal status: Fair.
