Quick post today, not because I need to go write my novel (which I do), but because I wrote so much yesterday and sat for so long, apparently with less than ideal posture, that my foot is numb again except for that thing where it feels like a nail is through the center of it. I know I should be feeling all thankful and stuff this week, but seriously, I wish this would just magically go away.
I do not want to have to go back to physical therapy ever if only because it takes away two hours of my day I don't want to give. So I'm going to join the gym today (or bust out a video or some weights or something at home) and commit to doing it three times a week until I'm feeling like I felt when I was thirty-eight. I remember feeling fantastic not that long ago....
I did manage to write 4000 words yesterday. Yay! I'm definitely going to finish half a NaNo novel, maybe more.
Rock on! I did 150 words yesterday. My celebration for doing 3300 the day before. Which of course means I didn't make up any ground (I'm 10k behind the pace). Go exercise, feel good. I might do that today myself.
ReplyDeleteMy wrists are a little sore from all the typing I did this weekend. I'll just have to play through the pain and pop a couple Aleve or Tylenol or something. Or get one of those cortizone shots like the athletes do.
ReplyDelete4000?!?! That's awesome! Congrats! Sorry it left pain in its wake. :( Hopefully it'll go away as quickly as it came!
ReplyDeleteRusty - I'm right there with you, but more like 15K in the hole.
ReplyDeleteDr Grumpy - Fear the cortisone shots. I have more of a disabling kind of nerve damage thing that can't be ignored. Narcotics work, but doesn't make for coherent writing.
Peggy - Thanks!
Bummer on the foot - get some exercise and see what happens. Good news on the writing though!
ReplyDelete4,000 words! You are doing awesome. Congrats. I'll pray that you won't have to go back to physical therapy. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog and for the nice comments.

Elisabeth - Thanks!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth - You too.
congrats on the word count! I keep telling myself I need to start working out too. Hope you achieve your goals!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations with the word count. You are doing awesome. Sorry about your foot. I hope it gets better quickly.
ReplyDeleteYea, on the 4,000 words.
ReplyDeleteRegular workouts help me with my RSI / nerve issues. Stick to what feels good and away from anything that can aggravate.
I wish you quick healing and a happy Thanksgiving. :)
wow on 4000 words. That's fantastic. It's a shame you have to pay for it afterwards.
ReplyDeleteUgh! I hope you managed to make that go away! I definitely have days my back aches from sitting and typing too long. Let's make a pact to get up every once in a while and move a little and stretch a little to keep our bodies happy...
ReplyDelete(well done on word count though!)
Awww. Feel better! But 4000 words is impressive.
ReplyDeleteAlex - Still a little sore but it's getting better.
ReplyDeleteCreepy - Thanks. It's hard to find the time for writing and exercise with kids underfoot.
Murees - Thank you. :)
M Pax - Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
Lynda - It's like God's joke - I could have written 6000 words that day, but I can only sit for 1500.
ReplyDeleteHart - Yes, definitely need to write for 30 stretch for 10, write for 30, stretch for 10.
Missed Periods - Thanks. :)
