Healthy Living

  • Cut back on soda again. Start off with only 3/week and go down from there. Or at least stop making excuses to buy it, esp. at work.

Writing

  • Write at least 12k for the year-- 1k/month.
  • Work on The Outpost. Maybe get it to a point where I can start posting it. i.e., finish it.
