Very busy being productive

May 31, 2005 08:50

I am going to the gym today. I have not been to the gym since October. Maybe even September. I think I will lift weights and run on the eliptical machine.

I am also going to get a big chunk of my novel done this afternoon/evening. I'm going to order pizza and buy some Diet Coke and Ding Dongs or other comfort foods that I like having around, and I'm going to camp out upstairs next to the window and listen to classical music on my Sirius radio and write and write and write. I just really really really want to get it done. I can't wait to have a complete manuscript all printed out that I can hold in my hands and send in manuscript boxes to agents (I have 2 or 3 agents who have been waiting for it since last summer).

The other thing I am going to accomplish this week is to get my vegetable garden planted. I kinda like having lots of different things to focus on. I will feel really good when I get a final draft of the novel though. That is my priority. I am not sure when I will complete it since I have a web project I'm working on this week, and I am launching a big PR campaign for the cookbook. And my mom and sister and niece are coming to visit next week. But I need to reset my goal since I missed the May 15th goal. I'm going to say June 27th. I think that is realistic.

Sorry, I know this is a boring post. I am just feeling very motivated and want to accomplish a lot. Must get coffee now.
