Chug. Chug. Chug.

Jus' chuggin' along. 

The Good Stuff:
  • NaNo is coming along nicely.  As of last night, 27,686 words completed.
  • I got the yards done this week.
  • I only rode the bike once, and there were three days of yard work, so that's four days of some kind of exercise.
  • I knocked out a few items on the anti-procrastination list.  I have so many more to do.
  • The new FM chat is operational, and the old one is shut down.
  • I have a test chat environment working
The Not So Good Stuff:
  • If I'm going to subscribe to the WW website, you'd think I'd use it.  This was the problem I had last time I was signed up for the program.  It works when you work it, but after a certain amount of time, I just quit working it.  Then I don't want to go there, because I've been doing so bad.  I tried restarting in week one, but I didn't "play the game," so it didn't help.  It's a mental thing for me.  When I'm on track and in the grove, weight falls off, it's never been so easy to do this, why did I ever have so much trouble?  Then, I get out of mental balance on it, and it's the hardest thing I've ever tried to do, I can't do it, nothing works. Blah, blah, blah, blah. Very frustrating.
  • Both HDMI inputs on the kitchen TV went out yesterday.  It works on composite cables, but that's not why I got HD satellite service.  I was hoping it was the satellite box, but the BlueRay player doesn't work either, so I'm sure it's the HDMI input circuitry on the TV.  The TV is an LG, and there were some negative reviews about volume cutting out on it which have caused me concern since we bought it -- volume does cut out from time to time.  I bought Samsungs for upstairs.  We may look at replacing this with either a Samsung or a Toshiba.  At some point, a trip to Best Buy will be in order to compare, but it isn't an emergency.
 The Week Ahead:
  • Continue work on NaNo
  • Look for a trap for the kittens -- males in January (vet won't snip them before six months; says it messes them up), if I can identify any females, I need to be trying to get them now.
  • Knock out a few more procrastination items
