La Bene Vita
I am a professional musician  , worship leader , small business owner , songwriter , aspiring author and freelance nonfiction writer with a chemical engineering degree .
But that's just my resume.
My profile of qualifications is only one of the ways in which I am unique. Here I chronicle my personal and professional goals and my efforts to achieve them. Occasionally I fail. Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the businesses I run, I am always a work in progress.

Health goals
Weight: 173.8
Exercise: Yes. OMG it's cold outside.
Yesterday's points: 40
Weekly writing goals
Profile 4 Characters: Not yet.
Rewrite one short story: In progress.
Character Inventory: In progress.
Review 1 hour: Done. 
Revise one song: scheduled Fri
My schedule is all out of whack today, because I carpooled with Keith and came to work early. As soon as Chris, the office manager, arrived, we started talking business. I've gotten nothing else done except yesterday's music practice time. So I still have 750 Words (profile Wisdom) and edit a short story (The Butterfly Stone) on my agenda. Since Wisdom appears in Poor Witch, I thought she was a good choice for my first character project.
Weekly work goals
Reach 400 students at MTMS by 12/31/12: 227. Less than I'd like, but - as I have to remind myself - more than I planned when I originally opened my doors. By a lot. *repeats to convince self*
Blog at MT.com : PENDING.
Year-end closeout: In progress, mostly by delegation. 
Sign-in process for students: In progress.
Judge Ohio Idol videos: PENDING
Music Log
Yesterday, I practiced: Sonata in Dm (Scarlatti) for piano and Purcell's "When I am laid in earth" from "Dido and Aeneas" for voice. Talk about a depressing song! Technically this happened this morning, so I need to practice again later today.
Yesterday, I listened to: Purcell's "When I am laid in earth"
This week, I performed at: Pending, but a local nursing home just booked me for every other month through the end of the year.
Songwriting progress: Pending.

Thank you for hosting a great challenge and for your dedication to helping so many of us prepare with confidence and trepidation for National Novel Writing Month (known to sane folks as 'November' *^*Laugh*^*) at your [Link To Item #1474311]](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Organization-1150.gif)

For your hard work, commitment, talent and innovation in running the October NaNoWriMo Preparation each year, which helps many of us get our scattered thoughts together for November's novel-writing. And also because this badge has ducks on it.](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Leadership.gif)
