In the United States of America today, it's a day of parades honoring our service members, picnics with the family, and a day to reflect. I want to thank all our service members currently serving over seas and at home. Thank you for your service. We're thinking of you. We're also remembering those who have died for our country.

I'm going to be writing everyday or almost every day. I have some goals to work on. You might have the same ones or different ones. Let's help each other. How? With encouragement. Goal 1: I would like to lose weight. I lost weight and gained it back again. Frustrating, isn't it? I'm going to exercise every day. I will post here what exercise I did. If you have this same goal, you are welcome to post what exercise you did. Goal 2: I'm going to write a thousand words a day. That's words on a novel or novella. I not counting the words I post on a blog. i will post word count here whether I make it or not. Goal 3: I needed to buy a new sofa. Mine... well, it sagged. Today my husband and I bought a new sofa. The one we really wanted was too big for the space. Sigh. But we compromised and bought our second choice. I wanted a great sofa to put up my feet and type like a maniac in comfort. It would also be comfy if a friend wanted to stay over and sleep on it. So GOAL ACCOMPLISHED!
This is how it works. You are welcome to post your goals and how you're doing. I will be, and together we'll encourage each other.

Good for you, Gerri! Brava! So let's begin.
Goal 1: Yesterday I only managed 200 words, But that's okay on a day heavy with errands. Today was much of he same but I am now sitting down to write. Tomorrow is a full writing day. Goal 2: Weight Loss Plan--exercise. I didn't kickbox or walk today. It was a busy day between church and family. So I scurried off and did 50 pushups and 50 crunches first chance I got. It's not enough but I'll build on that. New Goal 3: Try something new each month. I tried a Japanese soda Litchi flavored. I had to ram down a litte plunger cap to unseal the soda by freeing a glass marble. It was just as much fun as drinking the soda. Definitely a keeper.
How did you do? Now I'm off to write.
