How is it the end of February already?? Gah, this month always flies by SO fast … you’d think I’d be prepared for it by now! Alas, I am not. Every year, I pretty much stand on the sidelines and watch February race by while I call feebly after it, “Hey, wait for me!”
Anyone else feel the same way?
Here’s how I did on my goals this past week:
- revise up to page 90 of my thesis novel {not quite to page 90 but am feeling really happy about the new pages I wrote this week!}
blog about Week 7 Act of Kindness Challenge & complete it myself this weekpublish blog post about 7: An Experimental Mutiny Against Excess{read my review here!}finish grading papers for both classestake old financial/health documents to the bank to be shreddedknit 25 rows of the scarf I’m working onprepare for my presentation at The Louisville Conference on Saturday
I realized that last week I forgot to show you pictures of my newly purged and organized file box, cleaned out of all the old bank statements/health invoices/other expired documents which have now been shredded at the bank! WOO! Here is a belated picture, for no other reason than I was proud of myself for crossing this task off my list and wanted to share with you:
Here are my goals for this upcoming week:
- revise up to page 100 of my thesis novel
- blog about Week 8 Act of Kindness Challenge & complete it myself this week
