my january list update

so it's sunday, and i am home sick like no one's business.
it is supposed to be dropped to 7 degrees in New York tonight- egads- and i am worried i am going to get so much sicker.
i keep having to check the boiler to see if it's working and has enough water pumping through it, and i'm afraid if i nap it won't help me.
so pup and LML are taking a nap for me while watching the married with children marathon.

i figured that i'll be stuck at home at least for a couple of days this week, because it's going to snow- again!
so here's the perfect time to update my January List/Project...

so here's the list and my updates...

edit and complete all stories and novels- i have finished and published my big manuscript (send me a private message about it here if you'd like), my first children's book, and as of right now I am illustrating my second children's book. i worked on my writing portfolio and it's in perfect order ~:)


illustrate children's stories (for my nephew) - working on second book and there's so many more that i should inspire myself by taking a drawing class.


clean out the house of negative stuff- i have some more things to go through and throw away but i have done so much! i am quite pleased with what i've accomplished with this list item.


clean it out of un-necessary clutter- garbage bag upon garbage bag have been thrown away and there are so many more waiting to be packed. so exciting to know you're going to start off on a clean slate.


take all loose photos and put them in album- i have entered photos into 2 albums and i need more albums! lol


complete all scrapbooks, unfinished or untouched- haven't gotten to this list item yet, but have organized scrapbook stuff into one drawer. it's ready to go!


print out what needs to get printed out on this computer- that's my tomorrow morning task and it will be complete by lunchtime, though i have done a lot of that this week!


delete un-needed files from computer- i did that with the documents file and have organized them into folders as well. progress!


upload all photos into usb disc AND photo programs - i should be getting this done this week


select photos to be printed- this list item might be the most difficult because i have so much else to do, but i do have until the end of the month! 


get them printed (and repeat above)- ditto.


finish reading all books left before i buy or pick up a new one- i am reading the books on my sidebar, and i have 27 books to read that i am quite excited about. i will be working on them this year.


call church to pick up clothes for donation- my niece decided to pool our clothing donations for the salvation army...check!


go through and complete everything on my to-do list, which has come down considerably in the last two days. I am VERY excited about this.- now i accomplish a daily to do list and it works out so great! i have knocked so many items off of my 'master' to do list that this was the only solution


send out those packages! - its too cold to be out for too long, but as soon as it gets warmer, i am on it!


make those appointments (snow keeps stopping me from doing this)- still being stopped :/


start book club- that's going to happen by february 1st!


organize all files/bills - i can't tell you how cathartic it was to do this but i am not done with this list item yet. i felt so productive tackling one drawer the other day that i treated myself to a cookie.

seriously.


make a list of places from here to long island i'd like to see- i have and i think i may have blogged it! if not, i will blog it soon!


make my new years resolutions- ahhh that's going to be a long list! better get crackin' on it.

  1. Hi! Nice blog, posts! Will be glad to follow you! I see you use etsy, but what about other similar sites like zazzle.com, cafepress.com, fiverr? They could be a good way to promote your blog/works, etc. and to help "remove" stupidity in the streets like headlines on t-shirts, fridge-magnets, cups, etc: My Boyfriend kisses Better Than Yours, FBI - female body inspector, etc. Not everything we see and think of should be about sex, right? It would be much better if there were more nice pictures of mythical creatures, good thoughts, poems from fantasy genre, etc? I'm allanbard there, I use some of my illustrations, thoughts, poems from my books (like: One can fight money only with money, Even in the hotest fire there's a bit of water, etc). Best wishes! Let the wonderful noise of the sea always sounds in your ears! (a greeting of the water dragons'hunters - my Tale Of The Rock Pieces).
