Personal Digest Saturday: August 17 – August 23

Life news this week:

• Saturday I relaxed with some junk YouTube that I shouldn't get addicted to, did my blogging, and sent Polo video messages to my friends. Did some chores, made some yummy zucchini pasta, and read some old posts looking for something I want to compile. Made some new business cards.
  
  
• Sunday I was supposed to have band practice but too many people are sick so we didn't. Got my laundry going and did some more reading of old posts. Wrote the rest of that damn chapter that's been plaguing me on my sapphic YA science fiction that I've been wanting to finish. Got all the laundry folded and put away and the trash out and some other chores done.
  
  
• Monday I did some data entry at work, along with letters and meetings and info tracking. Did some homework with novel submissions. And did my catch-up with friends and family on videos.
  
  
• Tuesday I attended some meetings and organized some calendar items. Did some more homework with my novel submissions. Did some more Polo messages. And chatted with a friend.
  
  
• Wednesday I had two meetings at work and cleaned up the house a bit. Continued with novel homework. Jeaux came over and we went shopping, ate at Little Greek, took our walk, and caught up on Colbert. We finally finished watching Dungeon Meshi and I agree with most of Tumblr that it's a good show. :)
  
  
• Thursday was a usual workday and I did some research on old projects to collect data. Did some novel homework. Wrote my webcomic storyboard for the week. Went to game night with my pals. Did some of the webcomic drawings while entertaining myself with news and cartoons.
  
  
• Friday was reports and timesheets at the office. Then I worked on my comic and did some reading and walking.

New Reviews:

• Leah gave The Invisible Orientation a two-star review on Goodreads.

Health Plan Update:

• Weight stuff: Progress this week is unusually good and I have finally noticed a difference in how my clothes fit, so I'm pretty happy with what I saw this week. My HIGH this week is lower than last week's low! I recorded a high of 118.3 and a low of 116.9.
  
• Nutrition stuff: Really excellent nutritional balance this week! I didn't have any days that were unbalanced in any of the stuff I'm tracking, even the day I ate at a restaurant. I am still regularly taking vitamins.
  
• Activity stuff: I met my walking goal every day this week. My low day was Friday at 10,058 steps, and my high day was Monday at 14,097 steps.
