Day 8... back in the saddle

So a careful observer might notice it's a solid week since my last post. Well, rather than mince words about the how's and why-for's, Imma just jump right back into it.
For the remainder of this week I'll just be carrying-over the list from where I left off, with new additions coming Saturday:

• Drink 4 *bottles* of water per day, starting with 1 whole liter immediately upon waking.
• Ok it's come to my attention it's not actually liters, it's 4x my water bottle. XD This is closer to 2.5/3 liters. Today, I did this.
• Multivitamins every morning.
• No I forgot my vitamins due to being out of the routine I'm trying to establish. Got em set up for tomorrow morning where I can't miss em.
• Clean out my closet. (Includes getting rid of junk and taking whatever I can to Goodwill).
• Crap, forgot all about this! XD I am going to set the definitive goal to do this tomorrow after class.

• Stop biting my nails/cuticles.
• This one has been going really well. I haven't bit a nail or cuticle in at least 6 days. I bought a cuticle-pusher thing and an emery board to maintain them. I am such a metro!

• Call a friend/family member every weekend.
• No totally forgot this in the process of falling from my horse. Saturday morning Hoooo!
• Listen to an alien album every week.
• Yeah missed out on this one, I'll select the new one and post my choice Saturday.

• Create and follow a detailed schedule.
• Not too bad today.
•  Budget for all bills and expenses, including $50 monthly savings and $20 charitable donation. Keep a current, balanced checkbook (app).
• Put the savings away, got the bills paid for this month, and a fair amount of extra income. Need to decide where the first $20 is going....
• Maintain regular sleep patterns as scheduled. 
• Kind of messed up over the past 7 days, although I got to bed about 12:30 last night after D&D and got up with my alarm @ 8:30 this morning.
• Maintain regular waking hours as scheduled. 
• Got up as scheduled this morning!
• No more than one soda per day.
• NONE
• No more than three coffees.
• Two cups of coffee @ home this morning
• Exercise 45mins 5 times per week as scheduled. 
• Yes, and I kicked up the intensity. Added to the resistance level I usually use, and kept my heart rate between 148-152, spiking at 160 and never falling below 141
• 30 mins meditation every morning.
• Blegh, totally forgot this one.
•  Vegetarian Diet
•  Despite my overall implosion, I've kept this one. Last meat I had was Saturday. Today: Brunch: vegetarian chili and a peach Jamba. Post-workout: Steamed rice and stir-fried tofu w/veg. Dinner pt. 2: 6" hummus w/ veg on wheat.
• No cigarettes.
• Mark stopped by and I bummed one from him. Only one today. This isn't hard until the evening, I will keep at it.
• Practice guitar an hour/day. (Except Wednesday)
• No, but in my defense I had some homework.
• Add to this blog every evening. (Except Wednesday)
• I'm back baby!
