A New Attitude

The holidays are over, and it's time to get back into a steady routine. I'm a list-maker but I find lists for 6 months, yearly, or longer get lost or ignored. So to force myself to be more proficient, I've decided that I'm going to make a monthly tasks list. Here's what I need/want/have to do for January:

  1. Finish review of Sirenz 3 critique.
  2. Review Sirenz 3 at least twice more.
  3. Do critique for fellow crit group member
  4. Finish rough outline for adult book
  5. Review critiques for Island Girl (book 2 in twisted classics trilogy)
  6. Make notes, possible rough outline for book 3 in twisted classics trilogy.
Sounds like a lot, (and it is), especially since I'm still fighting this respiratory infection which is making me pretty listless. Plus, I still have other obligations- bell practice, trustee meeting and other church obligations, and mom/wife stuff. And, my New England Patriots are in the playoffs. 

Will everything get done? Probably not. But I will celebrate each time I cross off one To Do from the list, and not beat myself up if I don't get to all of the items. I'm thinking my new official song should be "I've got a new attitude."

I'll keep you posted, so stop in (feel free to leave an encouraging word).
