coming down to the wire

Well here we go, I’ll get this one off to you all while I can. I’ve fallen seriously behind on many tasks that need tending and I have other errands to run tonight and over the next week. Time is going to be at a premium.

I have to admit that the seeming impossibility of the list facing me has me excited about trying to do it. The past year has shown me what desperate and fought for impossibilities are like when you achieve them. There is an exhilaration that carries you on to the next goal you set yourself.

I also have to admit that there is a real risk of failing on several fronts. It’s stressful and right now what I really need is to get some order into my life, not stress myself unnecessarily.

Well anyway I’m going to hole up over the next day and dig myself out as much as possible.

Then Tuesday I’ll try to get some more done but I have a number of errands and activities planned for that day. Then wend. I may try to make a group meeting then for the first time but more likely I will hole up and work on my goals some more. I’d really like to make this meeting wend. But it would be a one time shot anyway. I work wends and won’t make any more for a while. That is provided that work is happening or scheduled at some point. I’m going to try to figure that out tonight or tomorrow (in person or by phone).

Tuesday is going to be errand day and help me get supplies toward completing some of my goals for the month. I know there is one I am unlikely to succeed at given that I have one week and haven’t started on it.

That upsets me a little but it also helps me realize that despite all of these things being goals that are achievable, that together they equal a lot; and I have to figure for some down time or else I’m going to fail. It’s an important lesson to learn. It also helps me rethink some of my year long goal scheduling that puts some of my list so close to the wire. I might want to pick up the pace and use opportunities now to get ahead on some of those.

So there is going to be a lot of holing up over the next week and a lot less of me to be seen. But I promise that you will get a post before the end of the week and then a closing ceremony of sorts from me by Sunday night. I will want to do a celebration of my months work. And just as likely the monumental amount of effort I’m sure to put forth over the next four days at least.

Until then though, Take Care of yourselves.
