I'm doing 31 things
I reached out to organizations who posted job openings, and sent my qualifications saying: if you want to take more time with your search, I could offer my services in the interim as a consultant. I am now creating a fundraising plan for a local orchestra who decided they couldn’t afford a full time executive director, but could afford a consultant to help them fundraise to get them there! So proud of myself!!

How I did it
It made me
proud! 
How I did it: I committed to a couch-to-5k program with a friend. I've now run 4 races, and my most recent time was 30:30. Very proud! I found in the early days, I had to put running first and say no to other things, to treat it like an appointment. Follow the couch-to-5k process, and be patient with the slow start because it's important. Read how I did it…

I switched to bank with no fees, anywhere, anytime. Now I just need to get organzied to switch over all my automated bills and deposits. When that’s done, no more fees.
I had to go home from work in a new direction to avoid the place I went to regularly. When I did go, I paid attention to how I felt afterwards and it was always horrible. I have gone months now without french fries. I won’t rule them out entirely, they are now for a once or twice a year treat, in moderation.
