August 1, 2020
What?!? The calendar says today's August 1, 2020. My mind is saying "I don't think so, you're kidding". Seriously, the last months have felt almost unreal and days melted into weeks and weeks into months and all became one foggy sphere. Covid is still affecting our lives and it doesn’t look like we’ll be getting rid of it anytime soon. Between Glenn being retired now and ALL my photography business being re- scheduled or canceled, I find the days just disappearing. I have found that I work best under deadlines. And I have no deadlines.
I need to focus and get grounded. I need to keep myself in reality with goals and deadlines so I don't keep floating through the days. I am going to make a “get it done” list for August. I will have monthly and daily goals. And I need to hold myself accountable. Like, one of my goals will be to finally get that old china of my mothers made into a keepsake pot or stepping stone and if it’s not done by the end of the month, throw the old china away as I’ve been holding onto it for years.
I need to set a goal to work on digitizing my old photos. It feels overwhelming but I will NOT leave that mess for my girls and if I would just start eating that elephant one bite at a time it will get done. So August will include some weekly digitization goals.
I have PLENTY of projects, I just need to hold myself accountable and occasionally throw my hat over the fence.
Come on August….you won’t slip past me like May, June and July
did.
