The State of the Ficcery: August 2022

Word Count for August: 6653 *sad trombone plays*

Almost 15k down from the monthly goal.

But I didn't default on my Hungry Ghost Title Challenge and my favourite season of the year Hallowe'en is in the offing.

Also I see I didn't read but one book (my Agatha Christie) and listen to one book (ol' Rebus) this whole month. Not sure what I've been doing with myself (besides, you know, Motherhood, ha!)

I did 17 spreads and 2 notecards, so collaging may be taking up the time, too. And I exercised 20 days out the month.

Here's to September being more productive.

Ah, don't be mad at yourself. You can't ramp up the power on every front there is, can you. I mean, you exercised on 20 days this month, that's almost every day! And there were the boys' summer holidays. You did excellent! 🥳

You're right. Not very realistic to suppose I can keep it all going equally strong. I have to adjust my expectations! Aw, thanks! Yes, and it's still hot here, so exercising is a lot of sweating (which I'm not fond of). Thanks!

Btw, I find exercising when it's hot a lot more satisfying, because you're sweating sooner: as if you were working out twice the time already. ;) But seriously, good thing is your body is already warm, and I find it easier to lean into more taxing poses. And sweating is a good thing! :D
