I haven't been writing. It is that damn writers block. Lots has been going on with me mainly personal. Maybe that is what is holding me back? I really need to be honest with myself and get out of my shell. My friend gave me an idea to do a to-do list. Well this is a start. I think I have a bucket list started in my drafts somewhere (I am sure that will be a good publish). Maybe I should have this list to get my wheels in motion, so here it goes:
1. I guess the number one thing on this list is to get a jobby, job, job. I am assuming that I should get a real job with benefits and all the adult things that you should have like retirement and vacation (will make hubs happy). Or my other option is to invent something fantastic, get funded and live a happy life. Goal: 6 months
2. With #1 goes my work life/balance. Who am I kidding? I need to work but I need to also want to watch them do kid things. Also, call my parents (not good at that). Once they turn 17 or 18, i won't get to experience that anymore. I admire companies who realize this is important, so I am hoping that I can find or invent this to fit with #1. Goal: Now
3. Balance my home life/ go out life. Sadly, this doesn't match up. But I think am doing a good job in keeping this balanced so far. I do need to go out and do things with the children/hubs more, but they are homebodies. Since summer is coming, I guess I should initiate the beach, zoo, outside activities with them. I love going out and meeting with my friends but I think I need to incorporate family/friends a little bit more better. I recently joined a bootcamp that works my arse off, but I would not be motivated to go if it were not for my friends who push me forward. I have a gym membership but of course, I need to be motivated in this area of my life. So far so good. Goal: Now
4, Travel more- I think this aligns with #1, 2 and 3. I think I need another European Vacation. I also need a NYC Broadway fix. Paris/Coastal regions/Champagne, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Italy. New York to see Pee-wee on Broadway. These are the fun goals in my life. Goal: 1 year
5. Give- I say I want to do this but maybe I need to push. I need to volunteer somewhere- one or two hrs. a week. Give something back to the community. I would love to help the homeless community or the senior population. I guess on my to-do list is to research and sign-up. Goal: 1-2 months
6. Learn more- I really want to go back-to-school to see what I am good at- I did this with Marketing via New Media (I love SM). I want to take art classes so I can put brush to canvas and take french lessons again. All of this is related to #1. Time and Money. Goal: 6 months
7. Blog more- This goes to the whole reason for this post. Pen to Paper. Fingers to Keyboard, Brush to Canvas...Produce and do something. I guess my goal is one post a week. My Secret San Diego posts need to be bi-monthly at least. Posterous- once a week or so. I should also do some business-related posts.
8. Finish books I read- right now I am reading the Warhol Diaries, Open Leadership, Eat Pray Love...all at the same time. I love to start books but never finish them. Maybe it has something to do with finality. When it ends that's it. It could be an ADD problem. I am not sure. Goal: Eat Pray Love before Movie comes out...Open Leadership= 2 months, Warhol Diaries - 1 yr. (this is a 900+ pg. book).
9. That is all for now. Hope you enjoyed my list. Let me know if you want to do #4, #5, #6 or if you have a wonderful lead for #1. I would love to hear from ya.
