Week 25

Twenty-five weeks.  2011. Time sure flies. Here's what's been going on:

Polar Bear on the Loose (Revision, using How To Revise Your Novel):  Still working on Lesson 12 but since hubby's back in town, work is more sporadic .
 

750words.com: I've written at least my 750 words seven of seven days.  My 750words account has been moved to the login I'm more comfortable with.  My streak is on track -- I have earned the flamingo badge and am scribbling furiously toward regaining albatross status when I get to 30 days -- I'm up to 16 now.

Internet Responsibilities:
- Done the stuff for FM

- Blogged a couple times

- Have my Merry-Go-Round Blog tour post in the queue on my blog.  Still need to queue my post on the Merry-Go-Round blog.

Pets:
- They're all still here.

Property:
- I dug sticker burs this week until hubby got here and he resumed doing it.

- We got one inch of rain on Wednesday, but I'm going to have to resume watering soon.

- Hubby  grumbled about the curtains but hasn't said anything else

- We got new beds.  Sleep number beds arrived Monday and I assembled them Monday and Tuesday.  I've been sleeping better.  Hubby's complaints don't seem to be bed-related, so I think we're good.  We have a third bed to replace at some point, but we'll probably be able to just keep the best of the three traditional sets we have for it.

Health:
- Pretty light workout week, but I've gotten some stuff done.

- I lost 1.4 pounds this week for a total WW loss of 36 pounds.   

- I added 20.22 miles to Walk Across Texas. 

 

General News:  We spent more time working on the plan for our Amtrak Grand Tour 2012 this week and have made some minor revisions.  Did some planning for the San Diego/LA portion of the trip. We're trying to get the framework finalized so we can buy our tickets as soon as the reservation window opens so we get the arrangements we want.  The details of off the train parts of the trip can be filled in later, but we have to know enough about them to know if they impact the train reservations.  So far, we made one important change in the Northern Tier part of the trip.
