Healthy Pony Motivation Round Sign Up

Yeah Monday was not good:( I get a 0 for buying junk food...sigh. I have a lot of stress, so I stress eat and make bad choices each day it will be a 5 or 0. Keeping things simple. 0 if I buy extras and eat junk food. 5 if I made the best choices. Once this week is over, I will be better.

Today is a 3 - I got up early, went out for a while and just ended up being annoyed by the people in town, came back and got some more stuff done around the house. Also did some more reading about trees and forestry, so that's two goals in the bag. I just can't be bothered with the guitar today, there's too much stuff going round in my head and it's just *urrgh*.

[Crowning_Glory13]

I feel you on the ugh part. I am tired, but good choices yesterday so 5 for Tuesday. So far so good, but I could use a nap.

Geez time goes way too fast, and I have been bad at tracking anything. I'd say most days are probably a 2-3, weekends probably get higher scores just due to having more time.

I have made a bit of progress on the bazaar stuff (and sent a message off to the organize that I'd like to join this year). Getting through my custom order large mailbox.

Reading and organizing haven't been great so far this month.

I was feeling great when it was getting warmer, then Easter came and we've just been so busy, when I do get to sit and rest, I want to do very little. Plus the cold/rain/snow again is putting a damper on things. I WANT SPRING ALREADY!

Each day one can only do so much. Not doing it all is still a good day when you try:D

[SwirlyWhirly]

The past few days have all been 1 and 2 days because I've been busy. This really isn't the best time of the year for me to do this because spring and summer means getting started on renovating the exterior of the house plus garden projects. I'll do my best and try get at least a 1 every day.

Today has been a 2, I didn't feel like going out but I did still get up at a sensible time instead of hiding in bed and did some cleaning around the house. I read for a while as well but still no energy to bother with the guitar.

april 8 cont: made sugar cookies and artichoke chicken.  the day turned out pretty good - a 4

april 9: probably a 3 because there are insane amounts of unfinished projects around here

april 10: also a 3

april 11: also a 3

april 12: not a good day.  I would say a 1.

[Miniature Sheep]

Today gets a 5, I'm still completely unmotivated and wound up but got up early and went out to get some stuff done. Also did some reading and played the guitar for a bit. I've been making an effort to be more focused as well rather than just autopiloting through the day.

I'm so behind, things have been rough 

April 8th:
I completed and posted my first commission, I was really proud of myself. I was very stressed out over my Aunt's passing and it was distracting me. I didn't eat much. I managed to get another commission thought. Solid 4.

April 9th:
I worked today, it was one of the rougher days but it wasn't awful. I worked on art when I got home and spent some time with my boyfriend. I stayed the night with my parents due to the funeral and had a nice time with my parents and watched my eating. I'd give it a 3.

April 10th:
This was the day of the funeral. I was very social with my family, but at times I felt very left out an alone. It hurts that I'm not close with my family. I was okay until I saw the coffin and I broke down from there. It's a sensitive matter so I don't want to hurt myself for being too sad because it's natural. I got some reading done on the long trip. It was a 2.

April 11th:
I called into work and said I wouldn't be back for two days. It's not right to lie but I was so beat down I needed time to myself. I spent a lot of time with my boyfriend and finished another commission. I didn't get much sleep but that was due to some poor/unexpected planning. I ate well and had a good day. A 4 I'd say.

April 12th:
I went to the zoo with my mother and had a really great time. Spent the rest of the day drawing and playing video games. I didn't clean or do anything helpful though so that takes points off. It's a 4 for that day.

Hugs that was a hard week to get through. I think you really understood the goals and how to give yourself points. We may not have the days we want to have, but that does not mean we did not do any work towards those goals.

I did not run off for extras these last few days, but I have not done much. The play has been taking a lot of time. If I get a spare moment I rest. I have given me a 3. No extras, needed the rest, but as I reflect I could have handled myself a bit better this week.

[Kiwi]

Oh Bekuno
Haven't done much the last couple days towards these goals, but I am posting here.

[Crowning_Glory13]

I have one performance this afternoon, and then 2 nights off!!!. I just weighed myself and I gained 2 pounds:( I know weight can fluctuate, but it was a bit of an eye opener. I am going to plan my week. My hope is to get me on a better track so when my play is over I can add to it.

[Miniature Sheep]

Yesterday was a 3, I got up at a reasonable time, read for a while and did some hoovering, then proceeded to muck about on the PS3 for most of the afternoon. Also attempted to put in some practice on the guitar but it was a complete mess, I just couldn't focus.

Today was a 4, I got up early and went out for a job interview (on a Sunday - I don't understand the logic there), finished reading another book and played the guitar for a while. It wasn't a 5 because I've been a bit too lazy this afternoon.

Looking over my scores and notes for the week, the main stumbling block seems to be a lack of focus. I'm going to try tracking my concentration throughout this next week and see if that helps me to stay on task a bit better.

April 13th:
Busy, busy work day. I went in not expecting much, ended up with a 4 hour shift spent entirely in the back room. Ugh. Later in the day we had a party, so I was social, but I got grouchy and jealous after a few hours and slunk off to bed in a bad mood. It was a 1.

April 14th:
Work again, but a short shift. Putting things off is only going to build up more work on Monday :/ I worked on my project some, but spent a lot of the day playing video games. A 2 at best.

April 15th:
Bad day. Cried and binged, been in a real awful mood. I don't want to deal with anything and my confidence crashed. If it wasn't for me working on some art it'd be a 0 day, but I give myself a 1.
