Update for the week of June 6 to 12, 2022
Write
I will write 750 words a day (5250 words for the week). I am on track this week. Each day has had at least 750 words. I managed to get over 5250 on Saturday. Sunday I have been working on Zayda's Quest a bit. I have over 7K of words.
I will create a piece and submit it for a contest on WDC. I wrote something (week #5) for the DreamTime Dragan Poetry Contest (this was also a contest in the Monthly Contest Challenge - so June is completed)
I did a blog post for Blogging Circle of Friends. June 11.
I will participate in as many writing activities as I am able:
Check to see when my makeup classes are... I believe they are this week... for the ones on Friday, at least.
Mon. 6 pm Blogging Basics (?) - not this week.
Tuesday 3 pm Creating a Book Cover (?) not this week; 6 pm Fiction Co-working Call *X*
Wed. 4:30 pm Oak Bluffs Poetry Workshop *Checkg*;7:30 pm GWN*X*
Thurs. 1 -3 pm Paris Ready, Set, Write. *Checkg*
Fri. 4 pm Short Stories and Flash Fiction (?); 8 pm InDesign for Writers (?) Neither are this week.
Sun. 12 pm Working Writer; 3 pm NWAL; 3:30 pm Montreal Tais Toi et ecrite - I opted to just take it easy and just be with myself and my own writing today. Working Writer is not happening this month and NWAL tends to make me anxious that I am not working on my own novel. Getting time to work on it without distraction has helped this afternoon.
Paris Ready, Set, Write is not doing online this weekend.

Read
I will read 30 books on Goodreads.com this year. I have currently finished 13.
I am continuing to read The Great Silence by Doug Johnstone; Writing Radar by Jack Gantos; Black Girls Must Be Magic by Jayne Allen; Self-Editing for Fiction Writers; How to Write That Scene by Rayne Hall; The Maeve Binchy Writers' Club, and The Writer's Journey by Christopher Vogler.

Work
I actually had a full week booked, but I completely forgot about Thursday at Preston. :( I feel so awful about that.
I work on Digital Supply bag. Not yet.

Health
10,000 steps a day (2x low; 4x high).
Yoga - 1 to 3 stretching sessions. Not yet.
Meditation - I am doing a challenge called Journey Within. It is 3 days a week. None as yet.
Drink at least 2L a day. Not near enough.
Eat more fiber and protein. Not as much as I should be.
No eating after 8 pm. Struggling with this and my weight reflects it.
Get in the kitchen and prepare meals so that I have more control over what I eat. Not much this week.

Other
Vacuum the basement. Not yet.
Attend Word on the Street in Toronto - Saturday and Sunday. It is supposed to be a rainy weekend, so I may only go on Saturday. I checked the TTC cite and discovered that Subway Line 1 is not operational between Lawrence West and Glencairn. That means no parking at Wilson Station. And since I am unsure of Kipling Station and the parking there... and it is supposed to rain, I have decided to stay home and watch some of the events on YouTube.
