Cough, Cough, Creative Saturday
Yep, I caught something. I seriously doubt it's anything serious but with my asthma, it usually takes a bit to shake it. So, today, I stayed in my pjs and kicked it hard. It's the first time I've done this in a long time and it actually was much needed. Because laying on the couch watching tv isn't very creative, I thought I'd tell you about a great site that has really sparked some enthusiasm for me to achieve my goals for this year.
The goals that I have aren't the typical goals. Some of them are just reminders to get into the habit of things that I don't often do. Here's a peek....
1) Wash my face every night before going to bed.
2) Practice the piano every day.
3) Read 2 books a month.
4) Draw or paint three times a week.
5) Work on re-writes for children's book.
6) Make a new recipe once a week.
7) Volunteer.
8) Drink 4 cups or more, water each day.
To make the goals even more fun, my twin has also set simple goals too. We are tracking each other's goals on:
www.joesgoals.com It has a spot for happy faces for when you accomplish a goal. It tracks your goals every day of every month for you.
I feel great to have already accomplished a few of my goals for the month. One of them being reading two books a month. I've already read 3 this month! I intend to start a used book swap blog for those of you who may want to swap books back and forth. Let me know whether you may be interested in participating.

You are the most ambitious person I know. I do good to just keep up with writing one post a week, reading the blogs on my list, keeping my house half clean and laundry up-to-date. You are an amazing woman, Simone.
Sorry you're not feeling well.
I hopped over to Joe's and I love the idea of that site! I think I may put it to some personal use myself.
Feel better, but until you do, don't be moving about a lot because it'll knock you out from exhaustion.
It wasn't a very creative Saturday, but it was definitely busy. Running all around town taking care of business.
Congratulations on reading three (!) books this month! What books were they?
What?! You don't wash your face every night?!!
I guess you can't get away with not doing that over here. The hot weather makes your face very oily and pimply!
Your goals are all very smart and perfect for you. And that website with the smile faces-- How cool is that!
Keep feeling good!

Snuggle in with a warm fuzzy blankie, a steaming hot drink and a good move. Feel better friend!
God bless
Take care...get rest...feel better!
Hmmm...not too creative this weekend. We have 12 inches of snow here in central Virginia and I spent this morning shoveling the driveway.
Way to stay on track with your goals. I think I did an okay job myself!
Saturday was busy in the morning and I did some nice reading at night.
