Not Failing Miserably

Long story short, I didn't plan to be on this blog today but ended up here which led me to reread my 2018 resolutions post.  In that post, I listed, in short, the following:

1. Eat less sugar.  Eh, that's going better than it was but still not so great.
2. Be super duper extra kind...that's going well.
3. Reach out to friends more.  I've been getting better with this!  Had to bail on a friend for lunch this week and had to bail on a friend this past weekend but considering all other things, I've improved!
4. Keep the clutter down.  Well, the clutter has gotten way worse on account of resolution number 3.

Some things I'm doing that aren't on the list:

1. Doing more for my child's school.
2. Getting back into volunteering for my professional organization (grumble, so much work).
3. Not working so much from home...everyone needs a break.
4. Slowly working on some of those "works in progress" projects!

I also wrote in a notebook a short list of some other things I was going to do which included writing more, either here for fun or on paper as a diary, or even letters to people.  That is a resolution I have not kept up with but maybe this here "test" post (yep, this post is a publishing test post, but worth writing anyway) will slowly encourage more.

So, yea, there ya have it.  Go out and do some fun things!

P.S. My next post, which hopefully you only see if you come back here and look for it (and not posting automatically to social media) will be just a boring old list of some of my favorite podcasts.  Hopefully, you will read it and then suggest some more podcasts to me.  Or books, I am always looking for book recommendations!
