I'm doing 13 things
Now, I just need to match my measurements, and then I have no excuse. Instead of struggling with patterns, I will be able to use a form, to create my own, shaped like me!

How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: After researching organizations I respected, I made a point of creating relationships with them through volunteering. I have gained experience, connections, and respect, and consequentially, have been offered positions based on what I was willing to do for free. I now have a position that takes advantage of my strengths and my interests, and gives me an opportunity to continue to develop in these areas. Read how I did it…

How I did it: After perusing catalogs and multiple trips to IKEA, we decided on 2 of the Linnarp desks because they are solid wood and can be positioned in multiple ways down the line. Read how I did it…

How I did it: makes a difference in everything when you walk more. you have more time to think, you can eat more, you have alone time, you use less gas, you don't have to worry about parking, and you buy fewer things...Now, I can say I walk two miles a day, yoga once a week, and run twice a month, and my life feels fairly balanced. I'd like to increase my yoga and running, but for me, the walking every day was the best way to start a habit. Read how I did it…

Now, I realize how much around the house is distracting me from my school work. Today, I reorganized my computer tool bars, and made sure that none of my visible bookmarks were unrelated to my studies. Then, I added a timer to Firefox to keep track of how I spend my on-line time.
I need to do a similar thing with my books and magazines, so the things I’m regularly reminded of are the things I’m supposed to be spending my time on… magazines should be put away, text books should be left accessible.
I am taking breaks in between studying to clean and organize, because I know that when things are in chaos, it is terribly difficult for me to concentrate on just one thing. I keep thinking of the dishes, and sweeping, and the donation pile.
Somehow, this essential aspect of my life has been pushed aside for not necessarily better activities. I am getting back on the wagon by participating in YogaAid this Saturday. 108 sun salutations it will be.
