Proud of myself, Met a Few Goals, and Word for the Year
I have recently been under a lot of pressure, self-enduced, of course. However, It has paid off through focus and determintaion. Did I mention that DETERMINATION was my word for the year? Anyway, I have been pushing myself to accomplish a few small little goals that I have not been able to do before.
First, I have been determined to keep going to doctor's appointments and tests even though some days I feel like they are pointless or are doing no good. (Part of taking care of myself)
Second, I have been participating a a couple of weekly art journal groups. I may not be posting what I write on a daily basis, but, I am there, in the background. This helps me to set weekly goals and to keep track of what I am doing.
Third, I actually applied for a Design Team Call for an art company!!!!! Whoo Hoo!!! Yeah Me!!!!! That forced me to get somewhat organized and on the ball. Cross your fingers for me :-)
Fourth, and this is really important, I submitted my first art piece to a major publication. It was only one piece but at least I DID IT!!!!!! I have been wanting to submit for almost two years now.
I am determined to stay organized, focused, and not push myself too hard. Oh, and I even had time to participate in an ATC swap! HA! Now, if I could only get caught up in my Lifebook 2015 course.......
Today is my oldest son's birthday. It is hard to believe how quickly they grow up! He is 23. I had to go to the GYN today for a follow up for my hysterectomy and reminded her that she had delivered Byron 23 years ago today......... time flies.....
Anyway, I will post pics of my projects when I can. Love and support to you all, Jess
