So… the schedule has been an epic failure. I was getting a variety of things partially done, but falling behind on everything. The schedule is scrapped now, and I’m flailing along trying to figure out how to make time for everything. The tomorrows I promise myself that I’ll sit down and write or podcast never seem to come.

I wish I could clone myself.

I’ll figure this out at some point. For now, I’ll do what I have the time for. I still have a schedule, I just gave myself more time to do the things I have to do and cut out the things I want to do.

In the meantime, we’ve been adding a ton of stuff to CMH and I’ve been working on getting this new software down. I’m really considering taking some more business classes after my daughter is off to college. I wonder how she’d like her mom going to school with her. *maniacal laughter*

Like anyone is really going to be interested in this… but it helps me.

I’m not trying to control everything, btw… it’s just not possible. But, if I can get into a better routine, I think I can handle things that come out of left field more easily and not get so behind in everything.

I made the family pretty happy with the new schedule because I actually made time to sit on my butt and watch 24 with them. However, as expected, things cropped up that weren’t on the schedule. There’s just no way to schedule for everything. I think, overall, I got less accomplished, but more variety of things accomplished. Is that good or bad? Both really.

So, I’m going to continue with the current schedule this week and make adjustments over the weekend. Not going to report again until the end of the week. I’m going to use the time to get some writing and editting done.

As for 24… ha… didn’t fool any of us. Nice try.

Apparently, I was more than ready for 2009 in December.

You see, I usually write a blog entry, then schedule it to post for anywhere from an hour to a day in the future so I can go back and edit it before it posts just in case I think of something else, want to word something differently, or remove something I shouldn’t have said. For some reason, I scheduled a bunch of blog entries for December of 2009. I’m not sure how it happened, but it did. Oops.

So, several past blog entries should be showing up here in a few minutes.

New schedule made. We’ll see how it goes this week. I have a feeling I’m not going to be able to get everything done in the time I have scheduled to do it, but I’m gonna try!

And yes, writing and podcasting are on the schedule.

Happy New Year everyone!

I changed my mind about resolutions. I’m making one resolution for this year. I resolve to figure out how to budget my time more wisely. I get sidetracked too easily. Even if I can’t accomplish everything I’d like to, I’d like to at least accomplish more.

We’ll see how it goes.

Anyone else making resolutions?
