This project hasn't been that exciting and I've spent a lot of time on it. I've been writing on the train in the morning. At lunch hour at work and train in the evening and also when I get home.
Sat outside on my deck an wrote. Very enjoyable. My dog Lola was there by my side. She's so wonderful. And to think I use to be afraid of dogs. It's a beautiful day outside, low humidity. The crickets are very loud and I have to prepare for party for tomorrow. We're having my relatives over to say goodbye to Nigel who will be going to Cornell. I'm very proud of him and will miss him.
Time goes by so fast. I remember the day he was born. I hope I've been a good father to him.
I feel good today. Had my Bulletproof coffee for breakfast. My current goal is BFN. And this has helped me make decisions on what to do. It helps a lot to have a deadline as if I want to finish the book I have to focus on it. I've skipped walking to work and having lunch with people because it's against my MIG - Most Important Goal.
Did the lawn. Picked up the poop. Tested Cheryl's blood sugar and it was 69. Pretty tired now. Will continue working on book. Already cleaned the dishes. I felt like my blood sugar was low and it was 94. I ate some cheese, nuts and diet grape drink.
Took dog over to Stella's house for a play date.
Watered the lawn and a baseball catch with Nigel, my son, went shopping for chips, beer and soda and took a one hour nap.
I acquired the domain WisdomOfADad.com. Tonight have plans to see Mission Impossible movie.
I took Lola out for a walk and we saw 2 cats and 4 dogs. Lola seemed afraid of the cats as they were on leashes and they weren't afraid of her. One of the dogs, was small with a Russian woman, growled and after smelling Lola, I asked if he was friendly to owner and he lunged at me and it scared me. There was an Irish Setter with an elderly guy and the dog was barking at us and pulling the owner. I didn't think he could control the dog well so we avoided them. We saw a fluffy dog behind a fence who Lola smelled but the dog growled at me. I squatted next to the fence with my back facing the dog, which I saw Cesar Millan do and it worked in calming the dog. I let him smell a treat I had, but didn't give it to him.We then saw a guy on the sidewalk who freaked out my dog. He was in a tee shirt and shorts and was looking at his phone. When Lola is freaked out her ears go way behind her head. We then saw a small white fluffy dog that kept barking at us. Lola laid down on the grass. I didn't approach because there were 4 women talking.
In the news
- Jon Stewart did his last Daily Show on Comedy Central Network
- The republican debate took place on FOX network with 24 million viewers
- Donald Trump was very entertaining.I think people are sick of politicians and like his honesty and political incorrectness
In stocks
- Planet Fitness had their IPO. I can't see how this is a viable business that charges $10 a month for members.
Creativity
I came up with the acronym PURGE - Prioritize yoUR Goals Everyday. Another recent acronym was DAMAGE - Don't Ask Me Ask Google Everything.
Health
My weight was 163.6 this morning. I'm having trouble getting below 160 lbs. I've been on a low carb diet for a while. My blood sugar hasn't been great. One strange thing I've noticed is that the Oreo Questbars raised my blood sugar to 154, but the Smores only to 101. I'm wondering the cause of this. Didn't walk that much this week. Still having foot pain.
Found a bunch of videos while looking for +Tim Ferriss, I found Tim Ferriss's Top 10 Rules for Success by Evan Carmichael. It was done very well and worth watching.
Reading
I'm currently reading Sam Harris's book "The Moral Landscape." I recently finished "Waking Up" by Sam. excellent book also.
Goals
Some Other upcoming goals I have are:- Make Listi.net more usable especially for new users
- Declutter and clean up the house
- W < 160 lbs.
- Lower my Blood Sugar
- Resolve my foot pain
