The State of Me

Hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving (or Thursday if you're from a place that doesn't celebrate it). I had a nice evening with my parents, a friend from church, and some neighbors. I ate way too much food though.

I am behind on NaNo. I need to get to it. I fear I have overextended myself this month with some churchy obligations that take up some time each week and I've just generally been blah about this project. I may need to do some quick mind-mapping or something. I'm at 35K, so it's not like I'm that far off, but it's not like this is the week where I'm going to be flying through things either.

I had been making progress on my diet/exercise regime (lost about 15 pounds since August), but there's been a bit of backsliding since the beginning of the month. Still I'm trying to get myself in better shape. I've actually got a real doctor now (instead of going to urgent care every time I need something) so that's a step in the right direction in terms of health.

Local hockey right now isn't a relief because the Blues, for lack of a better term, suck. At least some of the time, I can watch the other team and just enjoy the hockey that they are playing. I still love the game.

My brother's family is coming over tonight for a game night. It should be a way to everyone to relax and have a good time after the week we've had and I'll get to spend time with my one nephew who was in for the Thanksgiving weekend (before everything went to hell) before he goes back home tomorrow.

That's it for me. Back to the NaNo novel...
