Realizing My Potential: Update

This week was good and bad. I'm just now today deciding on a Bible reading plan (I'm going to go through the History books and Major Prophets of the OT throughout the day at work, 3 chapters a day, and 3 chapters of the NT letters in the evening). So, my Bible reading has been sporadic.

I only worked out three days last week, so that needs to come up to six this week.

On the positive side, I completed both of my household tasks I sought out to accomplish. The weight equipment was brought out of the garage, cleaned, and placed upstairs in the bonus room. I had a pair of 10 pound weights that I forgot about that's good for cardio stuff.

I also cleared out and cleaned up the screened-in back porch. This was a more daunting task. To be honest, we hadn't cleaned it since we lived there. We've also started putting the dog out there during the day in the past few months. You know what that means. It's also doubled as a catch all (which is why we haven't cleaned it) and there were dozens of tiki torches of which I don't know the origen, brooms, mops, a propane tank, Eden's baby pool, and about a million spiders, eggs sacks and bugs that I can't identify. Add this on top of all the leaves and the dirt that needed to be scrubbed off, and I had quite a task ahead. After a few hours of sweat, it's now a livable space with a scrubbed floor, no cobwebs on the walls, two chairs and a table for drinks. It's a nice space now. On top of that, I cleared off the patio so we've got an unobstructed view of the yard and the sunset. Beautiful.

My weight last Tuesday was 183.5. This week it's 181. 5. Next week my goal is to hit the 170's.

For the two household projects, I have chosen to clean out the garage (yikes!) and take care of two dead spots in the front yard, which will entail digging out rocks and putting down new soil and straw.

Here's to a better next week.
