Rebecca, I really like how you broke these down. It's good to know the reasons behind our goals. I'm inspired to take another look at some of mine now LOL!

I didn't get everything done yesterday, but as I realized that time was against me, I noted which ones HAD to be done that day and did them. That left me with only a portion of homework left. The thrift store didn't pan out. They had nothing. Will have to keep looking. I felt really good about that.

So, here are today's:



- Finish reading/watching supplemental school assignments
Why? class assignment
Goal? education
Obstacles? None unless all power goes out or something like that.
Overcome Obstacles? N/A
Celebrate with? a walk

- Chapter 3 quiz
Why? class assigment
Goal? education
Obstacles? none
Overcome Obstacles? N/A
Celebrate with? a moment of silence smile

- Small job
Why? job
Goal? writing income
Obstacles? hand
Overcome Obstacles? take breaks
Celebrate with? fold laundry

- Read Iliad books 8-10
Why? class assignment
Goal? education
Obstacles? none
Overcome Obstacles? N/A
Celebrate with? watch one hour of brainless TV

- Discussion Board questions in both classes
Why? class assignment
Goal? education
Obstacles? one will need research and is long which requires the environment to really think
Overcome Obstacles? send husband away
Celebrate with? snuggle with husband when I allow him back

- Student Handbook Quiz
Why? class assignment
Goal? education
Obstacles? time
Overcome Obstacles? not sure how long discussion board questions will take
Celebrate with? take a walk

I have others on my to-do list, but these are the ones who really need to get done. The others would be wonderful including an article for BellaOnline, but school deadlines have to come first. If I can do the others, I'm thinking about eating some ice cream to celebrate.

Rebecca - Ice Cream is always a wonderful way to celebrate.
It's difficult sometimes when we have our list of goals to do and then things get in the way.

I had big plans last night to get a LOT done and I walked in the door and my husband says - I've invited a friend and his family for a cook out. So instead of getting writing and other things on Bella Online set up. We had a cook out for 3 additional adults and their 4 kids ranging in age from 5 months to 6 years old. They didn't leave until after 10pm - well there went the evening.

I had ice cream, but it wasn't a celebration...lol...

Rebecca, where did you come up with that great idea on how to break everything out? It's fabulous. I think i might have to try that.

I like it too. Knowing the obstacles and what needs to be done to overcome them are sometimes half the battle!

I actually came up with it while looking at my to-do list and thinking of the comments by Lisa about priorities. Do these items fit with my priorities? Am I focusing on the right things? I'm getting a lot done this way and feeling good at the end of the day.
