Weekly Writing Intentions: April 1, 2023
Daily Diary, Day 942:
This will be very simple. First, I want to build my walking back up. Between the rain, and several months of infections and my reaction to the various antibiotics, I feel more out of shape than I have felt for a year, in the months after I broke my toe. I still have lower back pain, but I feel worse when I have been sitting too long, so I hope that very short, intermittent walks will help. Today, in several bits I did 45 mins of cleaning and walked this afternoon for 15 mins, so I actually got in 60 minutes of exercise. Now I am sitting with good posture in my rocking chair, with a heating pad (smile.)
Second, I would like to get through at least 5 chapters a day with this next edit. I did accomplish that today. That means that in a week, I should be ready to send the manuscript off to the person who copy edits my books.
Third, since this Wednesday it will have been a year since I started writing my substack newsletter, I would like to write a post reflecting on that anniversary for that day.
Fourth, if there is any additional time during the week, I hope to continue to work down my to-do list.
And here is a photo from my walk (I swear, having to find something to put in this post, so as not to disappoint you all, is the only thing that got me out for my walk.) So thanks!
Between the rain, and now the sun, those flowers that are blooming are really vibrant.
