2008 Resolution Redux
A review of last year's resolutions:
- Write for at 15 minutes a day. Well, so much for this. Between being pregnant and having a baby, I've been high on excuses for not writing. However, I started a new writing notebook last week in hopes of getting on track for next year.
- Post on the blog more regularly. Ha ha ha.
- Read at least 25 books. In terms of starting books, I probably came close. But finishing books is another matter.
- Get published. Yup. 3 times.
- Apply to grad school. As of 12:06 pm, FedEx is overnighting it to Seattle. So technically completed this year.
- Find a job. Well, I spent most of this year jobless (unless you count creating life as a job). My temp job in Seattle was alright, but not ideal. There probably won't be a job goal next year, unless I get into grad school and they let me teach little freshmen.
- Do 100% of my visiting teaching. Still at 0%. I have an excuse for 3 months in Seattle where we never made it to the VT/HT lists, but I'm still battling my strange aversion to visiting teaching.
- Keep in better touch with my family. I'll say I did a pretty good job at this. This summer we used more than half of our minutes each month. Impressive for us, let me tell you.
- Figure out how spices work. I'm doing better at this, but it's an on going project.
- Wake up early, and like it. Right now I'm feeling pretty good about mornings, especially since Baby G started sleeping through the night. Running with our new jogging-stroller-of-doom is also helping mornings be a happier time. (Never thought I'd say that.)
