Daily Success July 22 – Very Good. That was with the benefit of 10 injury points, which were well deserved given my left knee. It could probably have been “Outstanding,” but choices were made, and the Internet Monster had a little too much of my attention. Joe Biden dropping out, another ndnation poster putting up one of the most interesting and emotionally powerful posts imaginable all took their toll.
Yesterday
Daily success yesterday was across a wide range. Exercise was strengthened greatly by two visits to the bike. It may be my imagination, but peddling seems easier. It may be time to up the resistance one notch.
Stretches and shoulder rehab were excellent as well.
Also on the plus side was the start of real work on SAGEbot to justify a small paper. Since I wrote all the proposal material Sam used, without paying for it, it’s all fine fodder for my personal efforts to monetize things.
The seniorpilgrimage.com website fought back a bit. My plans for My Camino Day posts endured a minor setback due to some mistakes on my part and a lack of understanding how a couple things work. Fixing that will take a little time but won’t be hard; Cris from Naked Girl will have to do some things, but hopefully not a lot.
One thing that kinda sorta got rested was my body. Despite a good exercise score, there were no leg strength exercises, there was no walking of any note, there was no standing for a long period. Will that lead to better results with my knee and back today? We shall see. And report to Kristin at Pain, Spine, and Rehab during a virtual appointment on Tuesday.
Today
Daily success today will have to overcome a combination of lunch with an old friend, Chetty, and an appointment at COSTCO to get my hearing aids fixed. Or my left hearing aid. The wire that holds the little gadget that goes in one’s ear broke and so it’s not working at all.
That time used for other purposes should not be a big issue, however, as things yesterday seemed to be on a roll. Letting the questions rattle around my brain while my book collection or chores have my attention seems to be a way to get a good perspective on what is to be achieved and how to achieve it. “If we could first know where we are …”
The Future
Daily success in the future appears much the same as it did yesterday. It is a target rich environment that requires more care selecting the targets than attacking them. Some, France and hospitalero training, are baked in the plan. Others, especially the SAGEbot efforts, require establishing achievable goals, schedules, and resource allocations. It’s clear that cash is one resource that will have to be guarded carefully as it is GoVentures’ limiting asset.
