La Bene Vita
I am a professional musician  Open in new Window., worship leader  Open in new Window., small business owner  Open in new Window., songwriter  Open in new Window., aspiring author  Open in new Window. and freelance nonfiction writer  Open in new Window. with a chemical engineering degree  Open in new Window..

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.

Something feels strange... like I should be having a hectic day, but instead, I had a relatively calm, leisurely summer day.

Reach 300 students at MTMS  Open in new Window. by 12/31/11.
*Writing* Dropped down a couple, which is typical for the second half of the month. Right now we're just trying to get ready for the fast-paced ramp up we expect in August and September.

Reading: One book per week.
*Writing* I got about halfway through The Everything Dog Obedience Book and then stopped after the part about biting. And then I picked up Brisingr and read the same page three nights in a row before setting the Kindle back down on the nightstand and passing out. The reading is a bit stalled, but I did two loads of laundry and taught the dog to come, lay down, drop it, wait, and look. Sadly, he's still biting.

Writing:
(1) *Thumbsdown* Blog at MT.com  Open in new Window. by the end of Wednesday: No, but I was thinking of working on that now. It's the thought that counts, right?
(2) *Thumbsdown* 30 minutes of daily freestyle writing: Hmm. Actually, thanks to a prompting from Storm Machine Author Icon, I stopped in at Helium, caught up on my rating, and edited a few of my articles. She's thinking of exercising her article-writing muscles, and I'm thinking of following her example.

Count points:
Umm.
