Education Report 2015-11-07

Another week of mixed results.

On the positive side, I did very well with yoga and with the video game work. The yoga is especially interesting as, due to timing and health, I only did one actual exercise session, and the rest was either intention-based (attempted blood donation) or meditation. Yesterday I clocked an hour of meditation, with 30 minutes at the doctor's office in the waiting room, and 30 minutes in the evening before bed. In the Game category, we had a long meeting and I then spent some time on brainstorming and organizing to double my initial target.

On the down side, being under the weather on Thursday made me fall short on French, though I'm going to excuse that as a cold. Writing and Toastmasters fell short, though I at least did some outlining work on the writing side to at least be on the score board. But I think it's reasonable to apply those excess Game hours to the Writing category since they are both in the same universe, which gets me a lot closer. Falling short on Toastmasters is only a small slip-up, and sometime in the near future I'll probably overdo the goal when I write and practice my next speech.

So the main slip-up here was AI. I didn't get the time to work on it yesterday--the wait at the doctor's office was long, and I then had to prepare for company that evening.

So, like I said, a mixed report. Things to work on, things that went well.

Honestly, as I work on this plan, I find myself often asking the question, "What do I want to do?" That's the real question, and one I'll be contemplating a lot as I set targets in the next few weeks.

(Update: I just attended the Café Croissant this morning for an additional hour of French.)

P.S. I need a new name for this. "Education Report" is as dry and dusty as the baseboards behind my computer desk. Please post suggestions in the comments if you have any.
