4/4 Check In (Wuhan Virus Edition)

On 2/2 I began my year long journey to create life long habits for myself and throw in some fun intentions as well. The plan is to check in every month to monitor my progress. How did I do since my last check in on 3/3?

Nutrition & Training

Thanks to COVID-19 and quarantine, I have been eating at home more. Eating out has decreased (not by much, but it counts.) However, since I haven’t been walking to work the cardio has been limited. I’m feeling it. I re-gained two out of the five pounds lost. The bicycle has helped a little bit.

Yoga & Meditation

Another benefit the work from home situation has is extra sleep in the morning. I haven’t been waking up in the 5am hour lately and I have time to workout here at home. Mainly yoga and stretching. Amazing how much that kicks my butt. Meditation and breathing is a big part of this so I am on track with both of these. Namaste at home.

Photography & Writing

Slow progress in organizing the decades worth of photos in the archives. The Vault is setup and the images now need to be culled. After that, I can begin the process of further organizing and printing. I received negatives from the print lab and some scans. Why did I not spring to have prints made? What am I going to do with these negatives? Yes they were a test but I can’t fully see the results. Duh.
The only writing I have been doing is here and in my journal. Nothing contributed to the novel or short stories. Not even micro fiction.

5/5

Despite this friggin’ virus I do believe I am picking up the pace for this year long journey. Looking forward to sharing this month’s results on 5/5.
