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

Whew. My goals list is starting to look attainable again.
Get house ready for market by 9/30/09
In progress; no activity. We have a to-do list for Sunday afternoon.
Advertise "October Novel Prep Challenge" [13+].
 Goal met.
Launch one new Potbelly song per week.
I started to read through "Your Song" by Elton John, which I know well on piano, but had to adapt for guitar. I couldn't quite get the key right, so I never actually sang any of it.
NEW: Launch one new Praise Band song per month.
"Teach Me How to Pray" scheduled 9/27.
Write one new original song per month.
Goal met: http://michelletuesday.wordpress.com
Post at WordPress at least once per week.
Goal met.
Write one Textbroker article per week.
Goal met. I not only finished my "Music Lessons and Kids" article for TB, but I also wrote two Helium articles. *shrug* I was bored at work.
Write for "15 for 15 Contest --- Closed" [18+] fifteen minutes per day.
Goal met: "Invalid Item" . What is with my dark, pessimistic Muse? *kicks Muse*
Resign from Abbott by 6/1/10.
In progress. I got lots of sleep yesterday! After the kids left for school, I rolled over and slept like two more hours. It was a beautiful thing. And then, work was slow, so I was able to write a couple articles, post my 15-for-15 entry, find a devotional resource for tomorrow's praise band rehearsal, and update my October Prep spreadsheet. See, Abbott isn't so bad; the only problem is that I'm at work with Keith's at home, and vice versa. That part sucks, and I'm still vying for a day shift job, which won't happen any sooner than next month. Of course, day shift at Abbott is a lot more stressful (a.k.a., "challenging"?)
Maintain 150.0 lbs.
Goal met.
Weight:  I may update this later, if I get a chance to check it.
Meals:
9:15am Coffee (1)

I don't know how you do it, but I assume there's magic involved *^*Bigsmile*^* I have really enjoyed this month of planning and preparation for NaNoWriMo and I love how organized it all is. Thank you for hosting a great challenge and for your dedication to helping so many of us prepare with confidence and trepidation for National Novel Writing Month (known to sane folks as 'November' *^*Laugh*^*) at your [Link To Item #1474311]](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Organization-1150.gif)

For your hard work, commitment, talent and innovation in running the October NaNoWriMo Preparation each year, which helps many of us get our scattered thoughts together for November's novel-writing. And also because this badge has ducks on it.](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Leadership.gif)
