A week before Labor Day, I decided to return to school. This time around, I have a plan! And really, I feel pretty good about it. I mean, I don’t usually go to school with a plan. But being able to see the path I need to follow to reach this… dare I say, GOAL… fills me with content.
Going back to school got me excited about change in general, so I started looking for a part time job. Money is always a little tight for us this time of year with Rob being the Breadwinner and me being the… well, Me. My hope was to earn money just to pay for my tuition, but now I’m starting to look forward to the working part of working.
I’ve also signed up to participate in National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) this year. The goal is to write a 50k word novel in 30 days. That sounded like a lot when I first heard it, but when I learned the breakdown to 1,666 words per day, it seems pretty doable. My goal here is really just to get into a habit of writing daily. Wouldn’t it be nice if I could somehow turn that into getting back to daily exercise? The thought of being busy again makes me happy. I always wonder if some of my, er, issues have to do with boredom. I’m sure I’ve posted about that before.
I’ll try to keep an update of my word count here once I get started.
