My church job is starting to get really fun again. *Smile* I miss Emily terribly, and I've made plans to see her on Friday night to chat and hang out, but I think I'd gotten callused in our co-directorship. It was easy for each of us to rely on the other, and we always had a little bit of control competition going, so I think we'd started to forget about innovation, creativity, and fun. I feel like I'm starting fresh.

Resign from Abbott by 4/4/10.
*Writing* In progress and on schedule.

Brand the biz(es.)
*Writing* In progress. I have another teacher lined up to work for me, if business picks up! Which means I need to make sure business picks up. *Bigsmile*

Business: Music Instruction Books.
*Writing* In progress... if maybe a bit stalled. *Frown* I'm running out of time.

Launch one new Praise Band song per month.
*Check* "I Will Rise" was awesome. *Heart* Rachel, the keyboardist in my band, sang it as a solo, and the rest of us came in on the choral, "...and I hear the voice of many angels sing..." It was POWERFUL. It gave me the chills. *Thumbsup*

Post at WordPress at least once per week.
*Pencil* Pending.

Achieve a weight of 145.0 by 3/31/10.
Weight: 155.2 *Question* Salt, maybe. It encourages water retention. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. I'm sure it had nothing to do with all the pizza I ate Saturday night, and again as leftovers Sunday night. Well, except that the meat lover's pizza was, you know, really salty. Yep, salt.
