Our book group has made a decision...  — 1 week ago

...to meet somewhere else tomorrow. One of the group members has broken her ankle, and won’t be able to make it up my front stairs.

I’m not giving up on this goal, though. I’m going to find someone to invite over soon.

Biased expectations, again...  — 1 month ago

I expected to fail at turning this goal into another challenge goal, but I’ve succeeded. It worked!

Biased expectations are a part of the challenge of this challenge goal, too. I don’t really believe that I can invite a large group of people over, and get my messy house in order, by a month from now. It’s good to notice, examine, and challenge my biased expectations, which are so deeply embedded that most of the time I’m not even aware of them. I just take them for granted as the truth.

I don't understand why I would have set up this challenge goal to expire tonight...  — 1 month ago

...because the people were originally invited to come over to my house this coming Sunday, April 6. I guess it doesn’t really matter. The new date has not been set yet, but it will probably be Sunday, May 4. I don’t think I can make a new challenge goal out of this, but I will try to anyways, after the original time limit of this challenge expires later tonight.

This goal has been pushed back...  — 1 month ago

...from April until May, because a friend thought she had volunteered to host the group in April, and I decided I could use some more time to get my house in order.

Have I lost my mind?  — 2 months ago

Tonight I invited my monthly book group to meet at my house next month. I’m hoping it will motivate me to get my house cleaned up, rather than causing me to lose my sanity.
