Day one
1:00 AM
Day One went surprisingly easy especially when you consider I have a box of Girl Scout Cookies and a half a bag of Peanut Butter M&Ms on the counter. We don't usually have this stuff around the house but its that time of year for the cookies and the candy is left over from a retreat last week. I bought a basketball Saturday and I went down to my neighborhood court to shoot some hoops. I spent about 45 minutes and worked up a good sweat. I think I made about 10 shots lol but I'm actually not way off considering it's been about 10 years since I played. I can't run either because of my knee so it really was just shooting with a little bit of shuffling here and there.
I spent all of my free time today drawing with the computer, blogging, and optimizing a website I am working on. I would like to put together a collection of clip art stuff to sell. Here is the start of my first piece of art. Obviously unfinished. This pecker is missing feet, a perch, some shading, and I need to play with the angle of his head because right now it just looks like he is missing an eye. I am working on the texture for the wing but I have it all wrong and am probably just going to hand paint it. Any advice is welcome since this is my first attempt at drawing an animal and I draw like Napolean Dynamite.
Anyway here is what I ate today.

Congratulations. I admire your Discipline Decision, and the openness which will help you accomplish whatever you set out to do. Since Catholics are the leaders in making Lent a time of private/personal/spirital accomplishment, and among Catholics the Jesuits are leaders in advanced education -- I recommend reading from the Lenten writings out of Creighton University, a Jesuit school in Omaha. The web site is: http://www.creighton.edu/CollaborativeMinistry/Lent/
Best Wishes. We're rooting for you. DM
Way to go!
