Be the best teacher I can possibly be for my students
Done, but never done... 1 month ago

I’m marking this one done because I have been doing my best and working hard to improve and because I want to replace this goal with something more concrete.

adopt a kitty (read all 5 entries…)
Not time yet, but soon 2 months ago

My kitty Sophie died last month. I know we will want another kitty eventually. It’s too soon right now, but I’m still adding it to the list.

apply for jobs
Year One 4 months ago

I applied for a few jobs, knowing it was unlikely I’d get one this year. I’m glad I did, though, because there’s still an outside chance that I will get a job and, even more, this has helped me prepare for going on the job market more fully next year.
