PERSONAL CHALLENGE : AUGUST
I might have mentioned previously that I write update a Hot100 List in January. I am steadily working through that but progress has slowed to a trickle with only 40% achieved. To spice things up a little I’m sharing my personal challenges for August.
#36 Improve BMI : If I breathe in, strip naked, and take off a pound for the enormous weight of my hair, I can make 12st 8. My challenge is to stay under this weight for the whole of August. 12st 8 is one of my tipping points, if I can stay below then the next tipping point after this is 11st 10. But I do so like an Eton mess and I have at least one dinner out in the next few weeks.
#unlisted : finish chopping down the Bay tree laurus nobilis at the side of the house, before it becomes the side of the house. Ladders, hand saw… plasters…
#18 A persuasive conversation about a job every month (interview or test).
Or quite possibly, payment for work done- might that also count?
I am trying to measure here how much closer I am to getting work, so winning a small piece of work will definitely count. Maybe I can get a reference out of it too. But- I had the persuasive conversation last week, so can I count one for last month and then the payment count again as one for August ?
#41 More space in the lounge/diner An ongoing problem. If I’m going to fail on any of these challenges, I’d prefer to fail this one.

It’s almost the end of November. Every year is coming extremely fast. ;(
[...] where did it go ? I’ve seldom seen a month pass so quickly and with so much happening. Some of my personal challenge went well, and some … [...]
I like this; can I steal the personal challenge idea and implement it in my McCrabby Rants blog?? By the way, what does a stone weigh?
Thanks..
Yes Curt, I’d love you to. A stone weighs 14 pounds: I currently weigh 175 pounds (before a freshly-picked blackberry crumble for tea).
thanks for joining in and good luck with all your challenges. especially the getting paid one
