May

I know I haven't made much progress on the projects this month. I mainly focused on running and reading, both of which are on going things. I just don't feel the motivation to start new things or come up with new things to do. I did a whole bunch of organizational little tasks in the last couple of months. Inevitably the things I have left are the larger projects. Maybe I should start on one or two of them.

I have been trying to run more often. My goal is to be able to run about five days per week for at least 5k (3.11 mi). It would be better if I can use one of those days as a long run. Last week I managed to run a 10k. I feel like I have been building some muscle. My heart rate is lower, and I have to work a bit harder to sweat. I feel my lung capacity is higher. I just want my stomach to go away.

I've been good on reading. I try to read more then one book per month. Which will put me way ahead of my quota. I doubt I will get to 52 this year, but I will try. I have been influenced to make my bookshelf pretty. It's time I get rid of some of the books I will never read.

End of April State of Things

Not as many things were done this month. It might seem so by number, but certainly not by substance. I even skipped a whole week of working out. This month have not been very productive to say the least. I did manage to finish a couple of books, which was good. I did leave a few lapses. This seem to be an on-going theme so far. I'm also running out of project ideas.

One of my main problems is I have a few things on the initial list I have not even contemplated on starting. I simply don't feel like it. I kept finding little things to do and count them as projects. I know it's not enough, but I don't know if I can get myself to focus enough to actually attempt the bigger items.

Maybe spring will bring me a better outlook on things.
