So January has come and almost gone. What a strange, bizarre month it was for me. On the upside though, I’ve done really well with my “things to accomplish in 2008″ list. I was thinking it would be good to check it at the end of each month and take a look at what I’ve accomplished, so here goes:
- Make serious progress on my book - nada
- Record (at least) an EP’s worth of songs - studio time is booked for April!
- Visit my parents once a month - missed going home last weekend as I was sick, but planning on visiting this weekend
- Learn more about Buddhism/Visit the Buddhist temple in KM - I’m reading a great Buddhism book called Against the Stream and have several more waiting to read after that one. I need to call my friend Paula about visiting the temple!
- Visit some things in Atlanta I’ve yet to see:
High Museum - not yet
The Wren’s Nest - nope - Get organized:
Get rid of clutter, one room at a time - living room, dining room are in great shape. We’ve started on the bedroom. It’s getting there!
Organize my eskimo kiss records (”records” meaning info, data, etc.) - I’ve GOT to do this in Feb, if for no other reason that to get my taxes in order. - Get a new bed, change setup of bedroom - DONE!
- Start doing yoga (this one I’ve already started, yay me) - I have been ROCKING the yoga, I do it about four times a week. I can feel a huge difference already… it’s such a great way to start my day!
- Podcast more often (once every 4-6 weeks is the goal) - Gosh I really need to get a new podcast up. Soon.
- Get prints made of some of my Cabo photos - I can’t believe it’s taking me so long to do this.
- Read all my new books and refrain from purchasing any more until doing so - Lessee, so far I’ve read two 33 1/3 books — In Utero and Doolittle. As I mentioned, now I’m reading Against the Stream. It’s been hard to refrain from purchasing new ones, but so far so good!
So, I’m pretty pleased with myself. It’s been a productive January. Not to mention I’ve also been working on two upcoming eskimo kiss releases, I got a great review and raise at work, AND I just booked a show in Athens! Onward and upward!
