Right up front: Never in a million years could I do what is required. However, I needed to start somewhere. Considering how fit the SEALs are, I figured it was a good place to start. So my SEAL puppy reps (SEALp) consist of girls' pushups, crunches, and flutter kicks, a SEAL training basic. I started with doing one of each.  Since my accident I haven't done these, but I'm working to add them back into my routine.

PT ~ Physical therapy

UB ~ Upper body exercises

Bother

No work on Christmas Lost. *pfft*

Walk and PT done. YAY!

Eat healthy wasn't even close. *pfft*

Grocery shopping done but spent more than I planned. *pfft*

A little reading. *pfft*

Lunch with a friend. Awesome!

Sorting little things that need to be done and doing some. Good.

Distracted. Definitely!

Watching what's going on in Texas, with hurricane Harvey. All day long. Praying for those who need help and the helpers.

God willing, I'm not as distracted today.

Not beating myself up anymore. I spent much of yesterday on social media, following what was happening in Houston. I have a number of friends in Texas.

Schedule today is busy. Wonder how much I'll accomplish? Feel like I'm spending a lot of time keeping my head above water, so to speak.

Moon set.

Carpe Diem

Rather than fight to finish the last scene, I sent what I have to my editor. So editing as started on "Christmas Lost." Woohoo!

God bless those in the path of Hurricane Harvey.

And it's Friday again...

...and Christmas Lost still isn't finished. Bah. Today has several things already scheduled. However, this will not stop me from attempting to add more to the story.
