Week 1 Status

Fooling Mother Nature (First Draft):  2103 words plus a few mingled in with earlier scenes

Polar Bear on the Loose (Revision, using How To Revise Your Novel):  I finished Lesson Five -- the lesson that stopped me in my tracks early last year.  I'm midway through Lesson 6.  I've worked on the project every day for at least thirty minutes each day.

750words.com: I've written at least my 750 words each day and have a current streak of 208 days.  I've written 7171 words so far this month.  My next badge to earn is the Double Flock -- 250,000 words.  I'm currently at 206,743 words, so I have a little ways to go yet.

Internet Responsibilities:
- I've blogged reasonably regularly this week.
- I need to resume work on an FM project.
- I'm also working on a more philosophical topic.  I did an opening paragraph, and I haven't returned to it.
- I want to learn some WordPress CMS techniques, and my goal is to learn one thing a month.  I did not do anything on that this week.
- I did an update on the writing blog, which is my goal.

Pets:
- I have not trapped the kittens in the freezer
- I brushed Dazzle

Property:
- I set up the weight bench and unpacked the weights
- I set some trash out at the shop
- I organized the bedroom closets

Health:
- I rode the recumbent bike for ten minutes, on custom 1 setting, which increases resistance one level until it maxes out then it decreases the same way and tapers off to a light load to finish out program.  I call it the peak setting.  Max heart rate was 169 (calculated max heart rate for me is 170).  Average heart rate was 143.  When the max heart rate gets down to 153, I'll increase time.
