Fixing the blog bug again

The connection was terrible again today. Thinking about changing my SIM card soon gave me a little hope.

Posts have kept disappearing from the blog, and I have begun to dread updating it. I am not short of things to say; I am too frustrated to say them. My sleep and wake-up time have slipped too. I have been talking with friends until after eleven, then wishing I had stopped sooner.

It annoys me how much of this began with the network. Some things I cannot change immediately, so I have spent a few listless days doing only what is essential and filling the rest of the time. My mood may also be making it harder to lose weight; I seem quicker to anger. I need to get myself back on track.

At least I have become used to the new way I eat. Fried food in the snack street now makes me want to move past it, and I rarely feel hungry. Mostly I am bored of eating the same things. My watch shows more daily calories burned, though I do not feel as if I am working especially hard. If that continues, I may need to raise my activity level.

I worked on the blog bug again today. If articles disappear once more, I will set aside time for a larger fix. The blog is a piece of my work, and I should treat it seriously. Looking at teacher Li Xiaolai’s site reminded me how much I can still improve.

I have also begun losing sight of my goals. I wrote annual goals for three years, but did not keep tracking them; they became decorations. That feels wasteful and makes me angry. This year I want to put following through first. Watch this space!
