grim23With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts. - Eleanor Roosevelt
Goals Completed: 29/108
Goals in Progress: 30
Body/Martial Arts/Physical Improvement/Testing Myself: No real progress. I'm still working the treadmill and basic strength exercises. I'm again going to the gym after I write this. I will be running the Warrior Dash in a couple of weeks; I'll be ready.
Mind/Spirit/Centering/Health: I'm still reading Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind. I sat Zazen yesterday to make up for last month, and I'm restarting a daily meditative practice. This month's Hiaku!
Maintenance/Shit Got To Be Done: No progress.
In Case of Zombies/Disaster Preparation: Testing my temporary, portable system for emergency power keeps getting put off; maybe this weekend? Base Station has been visited by the PUD Electrical Engineer, and I have plans for a temporary (one year) meter base for electrical power that will be built next week. I have started the permitting process, and acquired a general contractor that has also seen the property - and we have and started the planning and cost estimation process for a small single-family dwelling.
Travel/Adventure/Doing Stuff: Last weekend was the SOAK Safety Training weekend, and I trained a lot of Firefighter skills, including victim extrication, hose management and operations, and ICS operations. SOAK is in three weeks.
Haiku
Expanding options,
Base Station potential -
plan for thoughtfulness
Eating mindfully,
egg, meat, vegetables -
delicious fuel
Daily carry gear,
Smaller, lighter, and faster -
movement and purpose!
