This coming week, I'll schedule both appointments, including coordinating the rental car I'll need while mine is in the shop getting its new bumper. By the end of March, these last two will be done.
For the Creative 9 in 9, I can see where my energy went: I blogged every day and edited my manuscript. Everything else fell by the wayside. However, I also wrote and submitted two of my three books reviews, which was not on the list but another "must do" of the week.
I also saw friends: two lunches, one dinner, several coffee dates, and multiple phone calls. In part this happened because I wasn't in class or prepping classes, focused mostly on work.
I know it's unrealistic to think I have the energy to work on multiple writing projects at the same time, given the rest of my life. Of course, I feel better when I do spend at least an hour daily on my own writing; it is an emotional and mental lift. I feel as if I am exercising and awakening the muscles of my discipline in new ways by expecting myself to write daily... looking to the future!
