Three Goals of Five: Progress Report

As another goal for today, I am typing this without looking at the keyboard; not so easy for me. I'm a pretty decent typist, but I am normally not looking at the screen as I type. As a writer, I'm a bit ashamed. Not sure why I never learned, so lately I began passively practicing while blogging, gaming, and working. Blogs are taking a bit longer to write, communication to teammates in games is inaccurate, and work is awesome because I have some.

I began a new project for the Austin Community Foundation, working on some web pages in their "about" section on their web site. This will be great for my portfolio, and I will be working on it for the next two weeks. The current web pages need some emotional and professional touches, so I'm really excited to start writing them after the long weekend.

My weight loss has been a bit different. I have excuses, none are good. I'm still sitting around at 152 lbs. I really want to hit it hard, and go at it like I used to in my high school athletics program. I took that dedicated time of running and weightlifting for granted. Now, I'm lucky if I motivate myself to wake up and go for an hour walk in the morning. Small changes are easier to make than big ones. I just have to figure out what they will be.

Golfing yesterday with a few distant relatives at our family reunion was very enjoyable. We played a tournament with a scramble format and three teams. Playing best ball sure made our score look pretty good, but not good enough. We finished last, but we still had a great time on a good course, and don't tell anyone, but I think the best ball was usually mine.

Overall, I feel progress has been made. I'm happy with that.
