The Good Life. |
| I still haven't pinned down my blog topic rotation, but I may finally be closing in on my weekly goals list template for 2026. Goals for 2/2/26 - 2/9/26 Explanations thinking counts - the goal here is to keep it in front of me and not let my lack of progress lead to quitting. work tasks - rather than bore everyone with the nuts and bolts of my responsibilities, I just need a reminder to actually look at those responsibilities and watch for hot items. 3x per week = Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday. themed blog post - These types of posts require research (reading, listening, doing), which takes time. My original goal of one music post and one writing post was way too aggressive. I'm not opposed to dropping it to monthly if I still struggle to maintain the schedule. review - Likewise, this may drop to monthly if I can't keep up. It's OMEA Time The Ohio Music Education Association holds annual Solo & Ensemble adjudicated events for students and professional development conferences for teachers. My moonlighting educators who daylight in local middle and high schools often are required to attend some or all of these, as are my teachers who are currently pursuing a music education degree. And thus, did I end up picking up a ton of extra students last Thu, Fri, Sat, and yesterday (Monday). Tuesdays are usually free, but today, I have three hours of back-to-back lessons. Which means I need to get out of my PJs, take a shower and leave the damn house. That might derail my goals list for the week, or at least require me to voluntarily scratch things off the list. So it's probably a bad week to count on me for a review. On the plus side, we gathered and submitted all the required documents for the Bureau of Workers' Compensation audit, which is scheduled later this month, and everybody got paid yesterday (go, me!). What about you? How are you and February getting along? |
