August-September: Objectives

There are just two objectives for this six week period:
  1. READ! I'm three books behind the pace I need to achieve 60 books in a year, it seems.  So it's time to catch up.  I'm hoping the slightly less hectic nature of work in the next few weeks will help.  I am also really, really trying to read things other than flimsy detective novels, too.  We'll see how well that goes.
  2. EXERCISE!  My plan is 30 pieces of exercise in six weeks - so 5 a week.  It doesn't have to be an hour a time, but something physically active beyond walking around.  Admittedly, this goal is oriented toward a family wedding where there will be many, many photos taken, but I'm also feeling sluggish and tired after a month of not doing much physical but have expended a great deal of mental energy.  This skewed expenditure has left me feeling somewhat out of sorts and a little unbalanced.  The reading challenge, plus some work organization, will see me continue with mental work, but I really want to up my physical quotient.  To that end, Monday saw a run, Tuesday yoga (maybe for the last time), and today is press ups.  As an added form of measurement, I'm going to instagram all workouts with the hashtag #pwsp (post workout sustenance photo) and, hopefully, will be able to document the challenge there, too.
