June 2022, was pretty much missing in action – I went out to visit a doctor and came home with a lurgy or two. It seems I need to build up my immunity after being confined to the house for the better part of two years.
Even had to drop the 04:30 wakeup calls for a while because I needed the sleep. I still felt the benefit and have come back to it, on and off as I felt better and worse.
So the main happening over the month was Clever Girl and I visiting her bestie. It’s fun, but we walk past her house everyday and Clever Girl always wants to stop in. They make a good collage though.
Might not have felt the best, but I managed to get a novella on the market.
And managed to read a few books – still ahead of my reading challenge schedule;
• An Elderly Lady Must Not Be Crossed • When He Was Wicked • Bitter Wash Road • On the Way to the Wedding • Making Living Lovely •
Goal Scoring
The score is a percentage; the times I did the keystone activity (most likely to produce the result) divided by the times I planned to. A “good” score is above 85%. I check in every week, but I’ll only note the averages here.
I stopped scoring myself early in June, so I got a little further over twelve weeks than last quarter, and I’d like to think I’d have kept track if I hadn’t been sick
| Goals | SCORE | NOTES |
| #1: Stay Married to DB • Cook his favourite meals. • Do the chores that annoy him the most when they don’t get done. • Never move anything he puts down. | – | I still cooked and cleaned, but not to schedule and less effectively. |
| #2: lose 5.6 kg by July 3, 2022 • Eat smaller portions. • Don’t eat snacks. • No eating after 7 pm. | – | Too much comfort eating… |
| #3: Stephen King Famous • Write 500 – 1,000 words every day. • Complete a novella each month. • Publish the novella the next month. | – | Didn’t write for most of the month, though I finished novella #2, and got an unrelated novella on the market. |
Being sick is an endless time suck that takes all the joy out of life. I hope I’ve left the illness behind with June 2022, but there’s still a few weeks to go before we start warming up again.
How was your June?
