January 2 check-in

Yesterday’s word count: 1464

Monthly total: 2,863

Blog posts and fanfiction. Worked more on You Can’t Fight Destiny. Hayley and Elijah flirting, while Elijah has no bloody clue who she is, is kind of giving me life, right now. And have now gotten to the part of this adventure where Josh is interrogating Hayley about what she’s doing there. It’s a lot of fun.

Stayed in my calorie budget and walked 6,943 steps. So, diet is going better than it did on Tuesday. Still have not cleaned anything. I did read some. New chapter of my favorite fanfic was posted, yesterday, so I started rereading it to refresh myself on it. Which, I got so caught up in it that it was almost 11pm before I wrote anything beyond my blog posts. Oops.

Honestly, I’m just glad I survived it. After waking up so bloody early, my body decided that it was bedtime right as I needed to get dressed and eat breakfast so I could go to work. And then work was crazy slow, which did not exactly help my energy levels at all.

But, I’m baby-stepping my New Year’s resolutions. And, I kind of like doing it that way. Only thing I’m trying to go all-in on is the writing. Other than that, I’m just working my way up to where I want to be. Which probably actually makes more sense than going all gung-ho the first week in January and then burning out. There was a thing on the radio about how most New Year’s resolutions only last about two weeks, and the second Friday in January is known as Quitters Day. I’d rather ease into things and gradually create habits I can stick with, than bite off more than I can chew and end up participating in Quitters Day.

So, that was my day, yesterday. Gonna admit that today is not looking great, but will hopefully get some more of YCFD written tonight to reach my word count goal. And, if not… that just means I’ll need to step it up this weekend.
