NaNoWriMo looms ahead..... do I participate or not this year? Last year I could barely be considered a participant, I attended one or two write-ins and did no other writing at all, I even had a completed "Three Act What? Great Story Structure" form with great plans, but the dedication just wasn't there. This year I started some planning, but then my life began to be consumed by pain and all focus is just on making it through the day. Today I made a list of things to get done and I made it through all but three items so far, completing 5/8 is not bad and I added another item to the list that I had forgotten about...and one of the items left is a meteor shower, so technically it hasn't happened yet and it is actually after midnight so it should be on tomorrow's list. However, I had to make sure I didn't overdo and have too much pain to go outside. I am trying to tolerate doing more but not do too much because I really want to return to work on Monday, but at the same time I want my body to heal so whatever is best, I hope is what happens. I have an MRI on Tuesday and hopefully then there will be some answers and I can feel I am on the mend, as of now it just seems as though it has been dragging on forever and ever.
Just before all of this pain started, I enjoyed a beautiful week in Michigan, enjoyed sunrises and sunsets over the lakes and spending time with God in his beautiful creation. I can't quite believe one day I walked over 20,000 steps and within a week I was hurting within the first 50 feet it seemed, such is life, and someday I will look back and say remember that fall when.....but for now I will dwell on better thoughts....and ponder whether NaNoWrimo is in my near future or not.
Well, I was going to add some pictures, but I am having technical difficulties, so no pictures
until have a chance to figure it out and update....
Well figured it out, so no you can enjoy a little retreat to the shores of Michigan....hope you enjoy, I sure did.
