Brand the biz(es.)

15 minutes of small biz research per day.
I'm taking down this goal. I'm not even sure what it means anymore. I work on the biz(es) every damn day. Although, I do need some structure around work. This working from home stuff is a pain. When the twelve-year-old gets off the bus, nothing else gets done for the day. And I'm definitely most productive in the morning, sleepy in the afternoon, and busy spending time with family in the evening. It will help when I'm teaching lessons more often in the late afternoon. Maybe I can throw a couch in my office at the school and take a nap after Potbelly every day. *Bigsmile*

Perform one household chore per day.
*Check* Goal met: Dishes, and -um- dishes. (The latter of which is a euphamism. *Smirk*)

REINSTATED GOAL: Read a book in print 15 minutes every day.
*Check* Goal met. I'm reading the first Percy Jackson book.
