Resign from Abbott by 4/4/10.
*Writing* 13 Days, and still not soon enough. Although, all I have left to do in the next two weeks is complete two investigations, audit a dozen or so batch logs, help three employees write and submit career growth plans, transition my payroll and personnel files, let a whole bunch of people take me to lunch on various days (I should resign more often!), and clean out my desk. I already started working on that last item, and hysterically, coworkers are assisting. Just last night, a peer and good friend stuck his head in my office, pointed at my shiny silver photo-frame-slash-calculator that I got as a thank-you for helping coordinate National Quality Month in like 2006, and he said, "Hey, can I have that when you're gone?" *Laugh* I said, "You can have it now." *Bigsmile*

I mean, it's not even a graphing calculator. *Pthb*

Brand the biz(es.)
*Writing* I got kudos from a dude at work who stumbled across my latest WordPress-posted recording, "When Love Comes to Town" http://michelletuesday.com

15 minutes of small biz research per day.
*Writing* I got my first commercial property proposal yesterday. It's a little place, adorable, but not much room for growth. I only considered it because my broker thought we might be able to land a killer deal for various reasons. The deal was far from killer, and seeing as how it's too small, not ideally laid out, and not in the best location, I may not even bother to counter. I have two other pending proposals on retail locations.

Post at WordPress at least once per week.
*Pencil* Pending, and probably not today.

Achieve a weight of 145.0 by 3/31/10.
Weight:
Meals:

D'oh. I just saw that date again.

Write one new original song per month.
*Check* Goal met: "Time"

Launch one new repertoire song per week.
*Pencil* Pending, but I've been playing through chord progressions on "Hungry Eyes" by Eric Clapton, "Heaven" by Bryan Adams, "Never Gonna Be Alone" and "Someday" by Nickelback, and "Drive" by Incubus, not to mention my own new chord progression. One of those will be my next new song.

Maintain Business Managers blog.
*Writing* No activity. I have posts pre-written for Monday and Tuesday; I suppose I should go ahead and "schedule" those, but today was busy.

Meet other writing goals.
*Writing* Textbroker articles: No activity.
*Writing* Music Educators blog: On hold.
*Thought*  Comment
