I just realized my Wednesdays are off a week because IWSG happened on the 2nd Wednesday this month. AH, well! I'm not going back and editing those posts (I'm totally going back and editing those posts).

I'm not going to ignore it: there's been a lot of death this season. I'm sure the death toll doesn't ramp up November through January (heck, maybe it does), but that's certainly what it feels like. I hope everyone is taking care of themselves and hugging loved ones if you hug.
On the 31st, I will be halfway through my rounds of chemotherapy, thank God. I would love for the remaining three months to go by quickly on the days I need them to go by quickly (i.e.: when I'm nauseated by the chemo and the medicine they give me doesn't work, or when my body aches like I have the flu and I just want to lay in bed until it stops) and slowly on the days I need them to go by slowly (i.e.: when none of the above is happening). However, that doesn't always happen, so I will just take things a day at a time and keep it pushing.
I reworked a whole chapter in Divided Princess this past weekend, which helped add some more action to the story, and I'm happy with it. Now, I think I can push forward with the story again. I looked over my NA fantasy I mentioned was at a full stop last week, and I put some notes on what I'll be changing in that one, also. Hopefully, I will be picking back up with it soon.
Sadly, I'm still on the same book from the beginning of the month, so I hope to be reading something new by February's Wednesday Words.
Some goals I have for this quarter are:
1) to eat better. I'm on the Daniel fast this month, and having stuck to it most of the 21 days felt like a big step in the right direction;
2) to exercise a little more on the days I feel good. With fasting comes losing water and muscle weight, so I need to get in the habit of toning that back into shape when I'm eating meat and bread again;
3) to cook more, or at least grocery shop food to eat more. The amount of fast food we usually eat is probably appalling; and
4) to read and write more. It's been a little slow for at least a year, due to circumstances obviously, but I think I can try to do a little better regardless.
I hope everyone has had a good start to 2020. What are some goals you have this quarter?

I hope the remaining sessions go by quickly. Nothing like feeling half sick all the time.
Definitely try planning a menu and grocery shopping. It will make a difference. I can't even remember the last time I had fast food. Been years.
Fingers-crossed the next three months of chemo do, indeed, speed by for you. It (unsurprisingly) sounds like absolute torment. :(
And your goals are all so admirable. Best of luck with them!
