so i had a HORRIBLE headache on Friday, and it carried over to Saturday and i sis not work out either day. -_- this beings up the question 'what is considered a fault on working out?' well i though about it and while i was in no physical condition to work out i still wanted to. i was upset that i didn't. and granted its only the beginning of the work out but still i don't want to lose those days i was good one. i technically have already done over half that but it didn't count because i was only working on 100 push up challenge.
a lot of things on this list are a challenge, and while i think that is a good thing, i also don't want to hinder myself and make it harder than i need to. that isn't a good idea generally. SO i have decided, if i do not do a whole week of working out, then i have to start over. i have a busy life and missing 1-2 days is unfortunate, however it doesn't happen frequently, but when you have a migraine its hard to move in general. but luckily i don't get migraines often.
i have been doing well on this challenge list, but also i am learning to help myself and work smart not extra hard. i have some sick notion that the more effort i put into something and the more complicated it gets, then clearly its more worth it.
there is beauty is simplicity.

a list of the list
So with November being my slack month I have decided to make a lift for the list I’m working on ((I just felt physics break.)) this is to get me on track of the 101 things again. While I’m currently working on 40 of the list ((almost HALF OMG.)) I need to start making better headway after frolicking in NaNo for 30 days.
From now to December 31 I plan to:
· Hit 145 consecutively
· Drink 8oz at work 4 days a week
· Add half of all Christmas cash received to savings
· Complete 35 Sudoku puzzles
· Reiki my Bamboo for 30 days starting December 1st
· Complete my winter Jacket (completely sewn, hemmed, buttoned, and wearable)
· Research Water and Juice fasting, and prepare to do this.
· Smudge apartment 2 times ((1 does not count for the monthly smudge))
· Give self 2 full Reiki Treatments that last for 30 minuets or more
· Finish my Journal
· Start Dream Journal
· Enter 10 pages into idea journal, 1 page – 1 idea and explanation of it.
· Have completed up to week 4 of 100 pushup challenge
· Start 1 red scarf and get 50% completed
· Donate blood again (available on December 15th.)
· Donate toys to toys for tots
· Pick landscape photos for water coloring
· Begin portfolio work
· Finish lists of 100 things: Places to go before I die, what makes me happy, what I like about myself
· Donate 50,000 grains of rice at free rice.org.
· Continue with what I am already working on and reaching to goal!
WHOO lets get cracking.

another one down!
WOAH! and then all the sudden i did a munch of stuff!
i finished my photo albums. YAY! i actually and proably going to make a 3rd and have that be only of landscapes. :D i have finished the 2 and here is what is in them.
1- Christmas with family (( bit extended family and my mom dad and sister.))
2- Me through they years, and family, and freinds and pets and boyfreind.
it made me really happy to put those together. it was juSt such a happy feeling i felt flipping through old memories. i printed about 230 photos and used almost all of them. damn.
also i did some smudging and some reiki to try to get my life on track. there has been a bought of negative energy following me for the last few weeks. and yes it is a lesson, and i am trying to learn it but still.
other than that Jacob and i rented some movies, and bought some junk food and had a movie night.
personally that displayed to me the best thing ever. i ate only half of a candy bar. (( what the big deal?)) well usually i would DEVOURE it. but no ive been workign hard to listen to my body and only eat when hungry. (( granted i also split a tub of popcorn with him to, but ANYWAY. i feel like ive been making a big deal of me not eating, well over eating. and frankly it IS a big deal. how i have been eatign for YEARS affect me. i am still a fast eater im tryign to slow down. i still engourge myself. im trying to lean my cut off. its like listening to tone below my audiabel hearign capeability.
i also notice i have a lot of "hungry" signals that might not mean hunger but instead may mean thist or full. ive just miss read these signals for so long i always associate them with hunger. im working hard to fix my horriable relationship with food. its hard long and painful but worth it in the end.
other than that just grinding away on other goals.
the no fast food is HARD. so much harder than 2 weeks ago. but im 1/3 done THANK GOD. i hope the last 2 months are less painful. -_-
brushing teeth is becoming habit, as is taking pills XD YAY! all in all becoming a better me.
in progress 40/97
completed 4/101

blah blah blah
man NaNo has eaten my life. :D but its good it looks like i can hit my 35000 word goal! but my secret goal is to win 50,000 here i come! im about 8,000 behind where i want to be. so i have to kick it into overdrive these next few days :D but i love where the story is going. there are some parts that are weak but i plan on fixing that when i go back to edit. ::nods::
other than that hanvent really focoused on anythgin new, and have been tryign to fit in a few things here and there. sewing the coat arms on is hard! i also think i will need to take it in a bit... hmmm but its getting there! ive decided to make the coat a early spring/lining jacket. im quite nervouse about sewing buttons on it though >_< ive never done buttons... but i shall tackle that in December! or at least end of November.
blah, my car keeps eating into my savings! but ive been keeping track of how much i owe my savings so i will pay that back on top of what i owe for 101. but i will have to do that starting January. Cause you know, tis the season and all that.

nano and excersising
whoo finially focousing on somethign other than Car issues and NaNo (( which i havent focoused on as much as i should. im about 50% behind my projected scedule (( i wanted to be at 22000 words today! im only at 10500 currently!)) i hope to hammer out a bunch tonight. HERES HOPING!
but im taking this moment to print up all my excersises from Spark People. :D I plan on makeign a great workout scedule with these. the great thing is there are so MANY excersised i will rotate them around (( i did this like 4 months ago? and man it worked great!)) i mean especially with the crunches. my goal is to have 30 core excersises to rotate through, 10-15 arm and leg excersises.
and now that i have a ball i can do the ball excersises GASP! im not sure how i feel about the resistance band though... hmmmm.
the 100 pushup challeneg is going SO SLOWLY! omg. BUT im making sure to do it right, and also not hurt myself. which is more important that i do it well than do it. >_< it takes me SO LONG to built upper body strength. which is why im now adding in other excersises.
Lastnight was the first night i did both the 100 puchup challenger wweek 2 work out with soem other arm excersises... OH MY GOD IT WAS SO PAINFUL! but this morning im not sore at all. YAY!
ive noticed a slight differance in my stomach too! its a little firmer (( this could be a placebo!)) so i am measueing myself weekly. : 0
