Entertainment
Sunday has turned into our official binge day, which is bad because that cuts into my writing and WDC activity time! but good because hubby and I hang with the poochies.

Comments about our latest binges/attempts:

The Hunting Party
One of the worst "As you know, Bob"s I've ever seen in a network production at the end of Episode 2, and it was already cliche anyway. Two thumbs down and no Episode 3 for us.

Amish Stud - The Eli Weaver Story (Lifetime movie currently on Netflix)
Interesting story, terrible acting. I mean terrible.

Nurse Jackie
Finally! A winner! Heartwarming and humorous with great characters. Nurse Jackie herself is asking for some trouble with the double life she's leading.

Goals for 2/23/26 - 3/1/26
It's time for a Goals adjustment. Changes include:
- Reducing novel time to one 30-minute session per week.
- Remove "PromptMaster !"  goals due to temporary event closure (after this week)
- I expect to add a couple more work goals soon.

My productivity and focus today were atrocious. I only got four hours of sleep, which is sparse, even for me. Body stiffness is creeping back in, so I need to break out the PT exercises and stretches (and, you know, regular exercise ) ASAP. I'm also on a different ADHD med (two or three weeks now), and the jury's out. Judging by today, I need a higher dose. But over the weekend I did better. I have another couple weeks to assess before my follow-up with the doc.

Thus, I have little to report in the way of goal progress, other than to establish them for the week:

Work Goals
Review work tasks list 3x per week

Writing Goals
Min 30 min/week on current novel - TBD
Two poems for "PromptMaster !" 
          - TBD
          - TBD
One short story for "The Bradbury"  - TBD and I still owe for last week.
One themed blog post - TBD
One review - I'm ahead by three weeks (2/23,3/2,3/9).
