La Bene Vita

Good Friday

Resign from Abbott by 4/4/10.
Goal met. It's Holy Week at church, today is Lesson Day, and invoices are due because it's the first of the month, so I still feel slammed. Right about next Tuesday, I'll start to really feel it.

Brand the biz(es.)
I didn't get any farther on my new web home, but here it is: http://michelletuesday.com/blog

Once I get that thing established, I'll post a "final" post at Wordpress.com pointing to the new blog.

I've also been back and forth with the architect at one of my commercial locations about floor plans. I really like him and the landlady. Nice people. I'll choose them first if they can come down to the price I can afford.

15 minutes of small biz research per day.
Yep. I researched music lesson room sizes, and found some great photos of a studio online:

Post at WordPress at least once per week.
Goal met.

Achieve a weight of 145.0 by 6/1/10.
In progress.
Meals:
7:00am Coffee (1)

Write one new original song per month.
Goal met: "Time"

Launch one new repertoire song per week.
I did play through a new song I had in my folder, but I can't remember what it was. I didn't sing it for fear of collapsing in a fit of couging, but remember thinking, I got this one. I could sing it. It's hard to retain this stuff for later blogging, because it's not like I have a pencil in my hand when it happens.

Maintain Business Managers blog.
Goal met through Monday: http://mochanotes.com/adviceforbusinessmanagers

Meet other writing goals.

Textbroker articles: None pending. BUT... my five articles from last week were reviewed by both the client and by Textbroker. The client always has nice things to say, but his review was exceptionally nice on my "Health and Nutrition" article on fast food. Textbroker, on the other hand, almost never comments unless there's an editorial correction. On a very rare occasion, I've gotten simple positive feedback like, "Good article."

This is what Textbroker said about my Health and Nutrition article: "[dis artikall haz da lolz]"
It appears that the Textbroker editors were kidnapped by LOLcats: http://www.textbroker.com/blog/content/april-fools.html

Music Educators blog: On hold.

On a completely unrelated note, I may shut down "Prodigy: Youth Writers' Competition"  [ASR] if I don't get any entries this month.
