Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory. - George S. Patton


Body/Martial Arts/Physical Improvement/Testing Myself: I'm still working on gains with regular training of consecutive pushups and crunches. I'm still taking daily long walks in the neighborhood when I'm in town, and a whole lot of Crossfit/functional fitness when I'm out at Base Station. *grin* My GoRuck bag arrived to train with, and I'm breaking it in on my long neighborhood walks. I've already used it to hold a bunch of free-box RV hose/line adapters I found on one of my walks. I signed up for another virtual race - stand by for details.

I've also found a free heavy bookcase in great condition for the Staging Area - I've turned it on its side, and it's a cubby for all of my bags and gear, doubling my floor space.

Mind/Spirit/Centering/Health: I'm still reading The Philosophy of Aikido by Stevens and Budoshoshinshu by Daidoji Yuzan. I'm still training mindfulness with my eating patterns. I've also added Range, by David Epstein, a discussion about generalists vs. specialists I found in a Free Little Library. Fascinating reading!

Maintenance/Shit Got To Be Done: No progress.

In Case of Zombies/Disaster Preparation: I am still utilizing the ReadyMan Plan2Survive Program. I still haven't started the FEMA online course or the Red Cross courses. I hope to get some of that done this week.

Base Station/Ol' Number 3: The internet and phone lines for Base Station are installed from the Gate House to the street, but the internet provider still has to dig and finish the fiber optic cable, and is overdue. The well/water system consult report is also overdue. I did get the final electrical inspection for the Gate House completed. The Old Man and I (with the help of Faye) got the brush trimmed back, serviced all of the tanks on the trailer again, shoveled away the hill to make space for the Pump House, put out solar lights and spotlights, and did a lot of cleanup and organizing. Ol' Number 3 also got some cleaning and organizing, and now has seating (!) and less clutter from the underground power project. Next: the automatic gate opener, the RV hook up, and the well/water system. Ol' Number 3 desperately needs a bath!

Travel/Adventure/Doing Stuff: No progress.
