Home. Sick. I'm so blessed to have such a competent staff that I can stay home without worry. Meanwhile, I'm drugged up on Sudafed and Nyquil and wasting the day away browsing the Internet for computer lab applications. And working on my long-range business plan. And planning summer camps. And blogging.

Want to start your own business? Make sure you consider "leisure" activities to be what most other people consider "work."

Reach 300 students at MTMS  Open in new Window. by 12/31/11:
*Writing* 155. Just 20 more, and we get to hire a receptionist! Oh, hallelujah. That leaves me and Chris with more time to work on long-range planning, cleaning up our processes, and hiring more people. It seems like we're interviewing and hiring every flipping month. We're up to 15 employees now.

Develop and market summer programs by 3/31/2011:
*Writing* In progress.

Pick scheduling database by 7/31/11:
*Writing* Stalled, because we don't have a lot of time for stuff like this. Our spreadsheet system isn't perfect, but it's working, and we're too busy enrolling new students, training our computer lab attendants, and getting quotes for a renovation. Oh, yeah. Did I mention we're renovating?

Potbelly: : Add one repertoire song per week
*Check* Actually, I launched "I Cross My Heart" by George Strait, since I happened to have the music in my folder, thanks to the wedding I sang at on Saturday. It's not a half-bad song, once you take the country twang out of it. I also have "Rosemary" almost ready. I played through it yesterday at PB and realized I have one or two trouble spots to iron out. That will probably be next week's new song. *Bigsmile*

Reading: One book per week.
*Thumbsdown* What's a book? Is that something used by people with free time?

Writing:
(1) *Check* Blog at WDC daily: Hangin' in there.
(2) *Writing* Blog at MT.com  Open in new Window. weekly: Pending.

Count points: TOTAL POINTS YESTERDAY:
I have no freaking idea. I can tell you that I could barely finish my Mexican meal last night, thanks to quickly developing sinus flu symptoms. It's okay, though, because I'm sure I made up the calories in Girl Scout cookies earlier in the day. I may have to wear shorts and tank tops on the boat instead of a bikini. *Pthb*
