The majority of the tourists go home. At least for two weeks. Then they all come back to watch the leaves change color, but those two weeks are spectacular.
Now I know I reside in an area with a tourism-based economy, and without tourists, I would be unemployed, but I've found them to be particularly exhausting this summer and I'm looking forward to some downtime.
Because I am super far behind in...well, life and I need to at least attempt to catch up.
Which means I am going back to setting both weekly and monthly goals for myself, and (at the risk of being incredibly boring) I'm going to post them and my progress (provided there is any) on this blog because I think I was doing better when I did that. Putting goals where other people can see them helps. Accountability and all that. I hate having to admit that I didn't accomplish what I set out to do.
That said, here are my goals for September:
1. Walk/run at least two miles a day.
2. Take donation pile(s) to Good Will.
3. Complete first draft of part two of Second Nature.
4. Complete workable draft of Effigy's blurb.
And now for my goals for this week (to be completed by Sunday evening):
1. Blog three times.
2. Complete chapters 19-20 of Second Nature.
3. Read a book. (Code Name: Verity by Elizabeth Wein)
So that's going to do it for me today. Thank you for stopping by. Have a great Monday.
