Today it's my turn to share my word for the year.
And after much thought and consideration, I choose Determined.
And Snoopy was only a mild influence. How could I refuse that face???
But, seriously...
As many of you may or may not know, I am a procrastinator.
I am not just a your basic run-of-the-mill blow stuff off type of person, I am a world-class procrastinator.
And this is the year that I am going to try and break through that mode. To that end, I am determined to:
Finish a marketable book.
Get Jordan an official diagnosis of Aspergers/Autism and get her into a work or study program. Get her out of the house and into a life. Stop enabling her.
Organize my office, home, and finances. Stop the neglect.
Because that's basically what happens when you are a procrastinator. You neglect the important stuff. Because it's easier to bury your head in the sand and believe that everything will work out--eventually.
And this year, I am DETERMINED to stop this vicious cycle. To this end, I am going to post a monthly update. Because I work best under expectations and accountability. It may just be a blurb or it might be an entire post, we'll see as the year plays out.
Now, time to get this posted and get on with my day. I think I hear some characters calling....

Hugs and "you go, girl" from this corner. It will be good for you and great for Jordan!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Liz.. I think I need to print this page out and keep it in sight to remind me of my pledge :). I am definitely making a few coasters out of the snoopy pic.
DeleteGood word! I like it! More hugs from here and I know you can do this! Yikes! I just realized that my word for 2015 might end up being "muzzy" if don't get my Word blog done pretty darn quick!
ReplyDeleteLOL. You crack me up.
Deletego, go, go, Margie! I love your word for the year - we'll be cheering you on!
ReplyDeleteCheering? It might be more helpful to crack the whip once in a while :)
