February Workshops Now Available…
Including Two Resurrected Classic Workshops… Remember, the two Resurrected Classic Workshops will only be available as a regular workshop with me giving homework feedback for this one month. They are also still classic workshops. Each month we will bring back to Regular Status one or two Classic Workshops. We have no schedule on when any of them will come forward.

Lifetime Workshop Subscribers, just follow normal workshop procedure if you want feedback and write me for a code to get into any of the February workshops. Here is the list of…

SPECIAL OFFER FROM ME…
Workshops Are In Second Week!! I realized that yesterday after doing the post about the workshops closing later in the week, and then tonight I was doing assignments and starting the second weeks.

So I talked to Kris about my idea and she said, “If you don’t mind the extra work.” So my SPECIAL OFFER IS THIS… If you jump into one of the Regular Workshops, Collection Classes, and Advanced Pacing Class, and send the first assignment with the second one this…

Today Everything Has Started…
Stunning Amounts of Stuff… Wow, was this a busy start to a new year for new workshops, Kickstarter, diet, and exercise. I signed up for the tracking of trying to run/walk 2023 miles in 2023. For me that is just over 11,000 steps a day without missing for an entire year. Yeah, that’s a streak. Down two pounds on my first weigh-in of the year on Monday, so considering the holidays, a total win. And I am slowly trying to bring up the running a little without damaging my old knees. Mostly just walking the 5.5 miles a day at the moment. The eye is slowly improving but still really…

Coming Out of a Fog
Finally Coming Back… Been dealing with this eye injury for about a month now, then got a horrid cold, worst one I have had in years, actually, that made my eyes blurry on top of the injury. So a fun couple of days being mostly blind and sneezing. Joy. But as the cold slowly clears, I feel like I am coming out of a fog bank and seeing the sun again. And clearly, under the cold-caused crap, my eyes are slowly improving. Yay! A couple more days and I will only be dealing with the eye issues again. So sitting here at this computer tonight, with the screens blown up…
