The Mary Project would be going ever so much better if I could convince myself that sitting around with nothing to do and no reason to go to bed yet means it's an excellent time to do yoga or resistance bands and therefore I should get up off my ass.

I mean, it's going fairly well. I've walked at least half an hour every day this week. But that is only lower body strength and cardio. I need upper body strength and flexibility. Do I ever need upper body strength—I can't start the lawnmower on my own, nor mow more than a third of the back lawn at a time, and I keep needing both arms to operate the damn stapler. And I hurt less when I yoga more. And there's nothing on my to-do list that won't wait till tomorrow, and I'm not tired, so exercise would be an excellent way to fill the time.

Motivate me? Or explain why I am unmotivated?

Sometimes when I find myself not wanting to bother with any exercise, I point out to myself that ten minutes is a good, effective chunk of exercise time and worth the effort. (And usually if I manage ten minuets I end up with 15.)

Doing ten minutes 2-3 times a day is a lot better than none at all, and it seems easier, sometimes, to just go ahead and do ten minutes and be done with it.

I dunno, but I am motivated for you to write something in the female character trope fest. There are 800 prompts and 21 fics only, and no SPN yet.

It has no ending date but 3W4DW ends Sunday...

Sorry? Nothing caught my interest the first time I looked through the SPN prompts, but I'll look again.

[fhionnuisce]

Fair enough.

I tried to leave some Mary/Ellen, plus you don’t strictly have to follow a prompt.

The fest is here. One prompt post, one works post: http://such-heights.dreamwidth.org/tag/female+character+trope+fest
