I wrote so much today! Well, the idea was to get to two thousand words. On the very first day I started this, it took me only two hours or so, and I wrote 2700 words. Today was not that easy. I wrote in pockets and even by 5.00 p.m., I didn’t have 2000 words. BUT, I just achieved the target, so I’m good to go! J One of the reasons that it took me much longer today is because I was doing a number of other things as well, today. As I had no classes to attend today, I just stayed around, being lazy and lethargic. I’m awake now!
I started the day late, eating the usual grapefruit. I also had an apple. I need to shed some pounds. After that. I went for my massage. It really was awesome. My massage therapist is such a great guy. After the massage, as he didn’t have any more clients until later, he gave me a tour of Bloomington and showed me some places I really needed to know about: a chiropractor, eating places, hair cutting places, etc. So now I have a much better picture of what Bloomington has to offer. Awesome deal!
I ate way too much pretzels and peanuts today, so I skipped dinner. I did spend 11 minutes on my cycling machine, and I feel good about that. Tomorrow I intend to go to the library and get some work done. I have a lot to get done for next week, but all is well. I just want to get a head start on the week.
Tonight I will do some reading and go through the Writer’s Chronicle to get some more information about upcoming submissions to journals. I’m doing well… I am, I am... I just need to keep going, just like this. I met my friend, John, for a bible study. His Dad’s health is not that great, and he had too much on his mind, so we had coffee and prayed. Dear readers, please pray for his Dad, I entreat you. Prayer can do a lot. I firmly believe that.
I cleaned a tiny bit. One step at a time. One day at a time. It’s a lot easier that way. I’m sure I will have good dreams tonight. Oh, I forgot to mention that I meditated for fifteen minutes today. So all in all, I had a good day, and I am glad to be alive. J
Sounds like a great day, Lasantha! I love that you're taking King's advice and writing that much every day. I have yet to do that, but I want to.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I thought of you today when I looked at my dining room table and, somehow, it is COMPLETELY COVERED again! How did this happen?? :)
I think it's fantastic that your massage therapist showed you some places around Bloomington. Discovering on your own takes time and sometimes you have to suffer through horrible meals and embarrassing haircuts before you find a place you love. I'm glad you had someone there to introduce you to good places.
I'm enjoying your blog and can't wait to see more!
