It seems my back is telling me it's time to get off the computer. I tried to get as many notifications done as possible. I think I managed half. Tomorrow is another day. I did make my goals with New Horizons. The plot is coming forward little by little. Anyway, the end total for today is 45,609. I'll be at 50K tomorrow or Sunday. My guess is tomorrow. I hope your day is/was good. Thanks for reading.

I did, thank you. Sometimes it is hard to keep up with notifications. I have them almost caught up now. Thank you, I hope you have a good Saturday too.

I got through all of my notifications and now am checking out some discussions before I head to hug my pillow.

@ElusiveButterfly Last night was my best night in a while. I purposely left the heat on, which I normally turn off at night (I usually get headaches from too much heat at night) I have my new humidifier going, but I also turned my teakettle on again. No stuffiness this morning, and slept like a baby.

I like to be on my laptop in my recliner, this way there is no pressure on my back at all.

@ramapo17 I would be alone up in my office, with the laptop I am in the family room. I have hardly used my desktop in years.

I did that during the game today. It actually worked better than it has been, or I'm getting used to it. I'm back on my PC now.

When the back hurts it's time to get up and go to sleep.

@ramapo17 I passed the 50K mark on Sunday - so 19 days to write 50K + words.

Thank you. I did have a good night's sleep. I expect I'll make 50K today. At least that's what I'm hoping to do.

No, the number is the word count for the book I'm working on. That would be far too many notifications.

We just got home from a week trip to New Jersey and now I am trying to catch up to all my messages and notifications. I did a little when we were gone but I only had my cell phone and that is small so I only did a few a day.

@just4him I know what you mean about the small cell phones but I did manage to get some things done. I missed my desk top.

Cell phones are too small to do a proper job on here. I hope your week in New Jersey was a good one.

I think so too. I can feel the push to the finish line. I won't stop writing though, I do have the secondary goal of 80K.

Yeah, sitting all round in front of computer is burden to our back, its hard to do it long time. Wow, almost 50,000 words.

Yes, it is hard to sit in one place for long periods of time. I usually get up and walk around during the day to take the stress off, but when I'm pushing at something to get it finished, I tend to stay in my seat. Yes, I'm hoping to cross the finish line for the challenge today. The book is coming along well.
