    Well, I make my goals very simple, cause I only have the evenings to work on the things I love.......and you did the most important thing on your list - time with friends, and you are doing a great job at being flexible!

    I noticed that and it means that I had best get busy.

    Maybe I should post my things at the end of the week so I could report what I DID achieve! I will forget what I put on this list and go off and do other things........guess that is a sign I have too many things to do!!

    That is a great idea!! I am still in a cast and can't do much so sewing is 1 thing I can do. My husband is doing most of the unpacking and organizing of our new house. Not a great thing to have a broken ankle when you are moving.
