Update on goals

Updating some of this year's goals, turns out some of them are actually done!  

2. Gaming - we've managed to stick to a reasonable schedule and actually finish one adventure path volume (Mummy's Mask volume 3).  Now our other GM is running volume 3 of Serpent's Skull.  So that goal is accomplished (getting back to a regular schedule).

3. Hobby - well, I did some painting, but this goal will stretch out a bit.  Still, keep on keeping on.

4. Fitness - I kept up with my fitness routine, and started cycling again (at least until my shifter cable broke, need to get that fixed).  Saw some gains and plan to continue.

5. Shooting - participated in all of this year's shoots, and managed to top my division twice (yes, it's only the 'U' and then 'D' divisions, but I'll still take it, for someone who just started.

So far so good.  The only one lacking is number 1 - Writing.  On that front, today I restarted that effort with a total of 811 words.  Nothing earth-shattering, but a solid restart.  Just like the six cubic yards of gravel we had to hand carry to the back yard for a project, it happens one bucket at a time.

Aside from that, we just returned from a two week road trip, camping throughout British Columbia.  What a great time.  A fantastic break from work and a good mental reset.  Easy to unplug when there's no cell service of any kind, not even 9-1-1!

So, this year is proving successful, and even includes some good home improvement work, which occupied a large portion of the spring/summer period.

More to follow, but time to buckle down and get to work if Queen's Legacy is to be drafted this year...
