“If you put everything off until you’re sure of it, you’ll get nothing done”

-Norman V. Peale

Well, well, well. What do you know?  It’s April 15.  That’s 15 days past my self-imposed deadline.  Which means that I have been meandering through the first half of this month without any purpose.  Without direction.  Goal-less!  I’ll blame it on ‘The Loony Bin’-which is where I spend my weekdays between the hours of 8:30am and 4:40pm.  What was once an undemanding Reading Teacher position quickly became a headache inducing 6^th Grade Teacher position when a certain Loony did not come back from Spring Break.  Gone are the days of no planning, no grading and no thinking. I now have responsibilities and frankly, I’m not ok with it.  But that brings me to my top goal for April. 

Keep on Keepin on: until the end of the year.  May 18^th.  Just 29 work days left.  I can do it.  And hopefully the 6^th graders will be able to learn something from my meager math lessons. 

Here's the Loony Bin back in its prime.

Other goals for (the remainder of) April are as follows:

Travel: to NASHVILLE! For my favorite Kentuckian’s bachelorette party.  My boots are already packed and ready for walking and pedaling. In THIS…

 can I getta hell ya?

…and then on to Chicago for Mother’s Day and MaryG’s birthday. Both on the same day this year.  Talk about a double whammy.  Better think of a good gift. (My presence is your present?)

Create: some of these

 

as well as some more blog posts.   Because now that I have my fancy header from this guy, who is married to this girl, I can’t NOT blog on the reg.

Read: My book club assignment- Kitchen CounterCooking School.

Get: A new job. The time has come.

Drink: More water.  Kind of a lame goal, I know.  But I am somewhat of a camel.  I often have zero glasses of water/day.   I’m a bit sick right now.  I think I coughed up approximately 8 lungs yesterday.  But I’ve been hydrating more than usual and my skin feels refreshed. Imma try to keep that up after this congestion is gone.
