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.

Reach 300 students at MTMS  Open in new Window. by 12/31/11:
*Writing* We had a couple more end-of-month withdrawals that we should have seen coming, because they had not yet paid for the month. We dropped back down below 150 to like 148-ish. We have some work to do!

In related news, I sent a resignation to Abbott this morning. Technically, I was still on a 12-month personal leave of absence, which is up at the end of the month.

Develop and market summer programs by 3/31/2011:
*Writing* In progress. I sent a proposed schedule to two teachers involved in the summer camps. I also need a marketing strategy to boost summer enrollments. According to Chris, who has been in this business for years, February is something of a peak, and enrollments start to drop off.

Pick scheduling database by 7/31/11:
*Writing* In progress. Chris did look at a database with a customer yesterday, but she pretty much nixed it for the inability to manage scheduling adequately.

Potbelly: : Add one repertoire song per week
*Thumbsdown* Yes, by accident. Keith's niece asked me to sing at her wedding. Wednesday, I was given the title "From This Moment On" by Shania Twain, so I printed it and launched it at Potbelly yesterday. Now the bride wants to use a CD for that song and gave me a list of three other songs to choose from, none of which I've ever heard of. Nothing like the last minute! So I may have a song to launch next week, too, if I can find one I like and make it my own. They're all cheesy country songs about cliche true love, so I'm not sure they have much potential for my repertoire. I can handle the Shania song.

Reading: One book per week.
*Thumbsdown* I did read like a page, before I passed out from yesterday's margarita.

Writing: Goals TBD:
(1) *Check* Blog at WDC daily.
(2) *Check* Blog at MT.com  Open in new Window. weekly.

Count points: TOTAL POINTS YESTERDAY:
Another margarita last night and no exercise this morning because of the snow. And probably because of the margarita, too. Cruise! Cruise! Cruise! Sheesh.
