Current real estate goal: Organize garage.
No activity.

Read a book in print for fifteen minutes every day.
Goal met.

Business: Location. Start looking into real estate opportunities.
No activity.

Business: Music Instruction Books.
No activity. However, I have a new student, a 7-year-old whose mom enrolled him in voice lessons, but she really just wants him to learn any kind of music. The music program was cut in his school thanks to the same two-time failed levy that put my friend Emily and her husband both out of work. In the process of teaching my new student (Michael), I am formulating curriculum ideas in my head.

Writing them down would be smart. But I have two Textbroker articles to write and desperately need a nap, so, maybe later.
