Saturday Post #4

It appears that I have successfully fallen into my old reading and writing patterns which is a great step in the right direction. The Board Games and activity goals are proving more of a challenge. Part of that is due to the disruptions we are having with the weather. Part of that is other things. My cat Helios has been fairly sick lately and he took a bad turn on Friday. He's doing better now, but things like that make it hard to work on new goals.

One thing that is going well is my cooking goals. I've been keeping up well with the recipe boxes but more than that, I've been cooking steadily since the new year began which means we are on track for some of the associated health goals.

Steps (officially way behind)

ok. So I'm not even going to go into it. With all the snow days I essentially didn't move much at all. January is a bit of a wash. So the new plan is to try to get in 10,000 steps four out of 7 days for the next week and get at least 8,000 for the other three. I might even bring back the AM treadmill jogging in aide of this. (not sure I'm quite ready to commit to the running though)
