OK, I’m changing my end date to December 21, since that’s the official first day of winter. I think it’s going well. . . .
Things to finish (2 out of 6 done):
Have my ring resized.- Create an altered book.
Practice discardia.- Write a letter to Cindy Sheehan.
- Reflect on my first year in Chicago.
- Challenge myself this fall!
Things to make specific progress on (6 out of 10 begun):
- Read 43 books about my city Read 3 more. Working on one right now.
- Explore 43 new places in my city Add 6. I think I’ve already got there, just need to post them.
- Get the medical care I need Get this MRI bullshit figured the hell out! Also, begin bodywork/massage therapy. Made new neuro appointment; tried a massage therapist but she was so-so, so I’m still looking.
- Stick to my FlyLady routines like glue Build an evening routine which I can live with, and stick to it. Doing the routine most evenings and it’s helping a lot!
- Volunteer Post about most recent experience; decide whether to start a new volunteership or take a break.
- Not have a headache. Get a follow up CT scan and discuss with doc.
- Have a better relationship with my brother Get through the current horrific family crisis without causing any further damage to an already strained relationship. Had an exhausting but important visit, and had some really good talks with my brother. Still tentative, but it feels like we’re both reaching out for the first time in . . . well, ever.
- Find alternatives to Google products. At least post about the alternatives I’m already using.
- Get strong Keep riding the bike as late in the year as possible. Rode yesterday! Hopefully will ride some more this week.
- Be a better friend Remain close to caught up on returning emails and phone messages.
Ongoing things to do (1.5 out of 3 going well):
- Journal Not so much.
- Stick to a budget So far so good!
- Accomplish 3 things every day Well, not every day, but this is happening lots of days.
Next steps . . . post about Chicago books and places; try to break through whatever block is keeping me from feeling creative at all, so I can get back to journaling and deal with the altered book project.
See more progress on: Challenge myself this fall!
