SQL purchased but no test today

I decided to take an evening off and instead did some crosswords, talked to a few friends, and read the first two chapters of the second book, The Black Cauldron, of the series I started a couple of weeks ago. I have a lot of books I'd like to read, and it would likely be better to read for fun from 9pm until bed instead of YouTube or Reddit.

I enjoyed the first chapter - the last chapter of the first book had the protagonist, a teenager, longing for home and simple tasks and tired of being an explorer and warrior. The first chapter of the second book, he's already complaining about his menial tasks! I had a good laugh at that. Teenagers. 

Tomorrow, I'll fired up the new practice test. I was a little disappointed at the number of people who pointed out the practice test included a few errors, so the test taker was marked wrong when they had selected the correct answer. As it's online, hopefully Microsoft has already corrected those!

Board games and near the end of the gym challenge

Today was another success! Went to the gym after my two cups of coffee, warmed up the rest of the Picadillo for lunch, and finished a few chores. This evening, I was invited to a board game night with a few friends. We played Spinjas and Stuffed Fables. The gym was my last arm/chest routine day until the 31st, where I'll do the full body routine and see where I gained. I'm certain I didn't lose weight - way too many cookies and candies around to snack on, but hopefully I'm stronger. I certainly feel stronger and better, and that is enough to keep going. I'm looking forward to getting a better diet in January by not having sugar for the month, and continuing to go the the gym - just not daily. Stuffed Fables is a really cute game! We played Story 1 where a girl's blanket is stolen from a little girl's bed, and the Stuffed animals characters, Theadora, Stitch, Flops and Lumpy have to travel through the underworld to rescue the blanket and get back to bed b

December Challenge has ended!

Image
I'm really pleased! I met my December challenge and even blew past my wussy goal of 5 times or more a week. I went to the gym every day except for December 25th (they were closed) and December 26th (the weather was finally so nice that I opted to go for a walk instead). I even have check in proof! I even made appreciable gains in my workouts! December 1st workout sheet: December 31st workout sheet: I changed from doing a machine that simulated the situp movement with some weights to just the situp bench. Clearly I still have some work to do on my arms and shoulders, but that's not a big surprise. I'll just keep on keeping on! I took a picture on the first and today - not going to share those, but I did see a little positive change in my arm definition and my midsection. I also need to work on lowering my shoulder and changing my posture - I'm starting to lean forward. I'll keep taking pictures on the last days of the month to make sure there'

Another Month Away - Painting, Week 1

Image
 I decided to embark on painting and Tableau and running hobbies, which kept me busy. Sadly, due to painting "class", a GI issue that curtailed running, and Tableau being done for work, I kept thinking "Well, the next update will be great and I'll have something to share!" I have things to share all right. It turns I'm not a great painter, but also that sometimes community classes don't have great instructors! I took a painting class at a nearby art center that offered painting classes, pottery classes and jewelry classes, as well as yoga and a few other classes aimed at small children. While I didn't learn much beyond I am not a good painter, I did enjoy having a space to go paint, and signed up for an annual membership for the open studio times. The class materials were: 2 canvases, 16" by 20" 3 canvas panels Assortment of brushes Acrylic Paint Colors:  • Cadmium Red • Cadmium Yellow • Pthalo Blue • Ultramarine Blue • Burnt Umber • Titani
