I think I should be able to reach my goal for today. I have been doing pretty good so far, but right now my characters are having a difficult conversation and I’m trying to figure out what they are going to say next. My sleep schedule is all sorts of screwed up and I wanted to get more done today than I think I will. I am going to spend the rest of the day writing, but I feel like I’m not even awake right now. I need to eat something and get some coffee before I get started, and then hopefully my muse will knock on the door with a few ideas and a couple of cocktails.

How I did it: I made a lot of food and a lot of drinks, decorated the house, and invited lots of people. Some people that I wanted to come didn't make it, but it was okay.

How I did it: I made a plan and a new routine, and along the way I had to re-work it a bit but now I have a flexible beauty routine that is perfect for me and my skincare needs. I bought new products and started using them all the time. Now my skin is looking better and better every day. Read how I did it…
How I did it: My doctor told me to keep a food diary to help diagnose some issues I was having, and I have realized that nothing is wrong with me, except that I'm not eating a balanced diet. All my issues could be solved by eating on a schedule instead of whenever, and by eating healthier foods. Also my stomach likes fresh foods, not heavily processed or foods that have been already prepared. Go figure. Basically every day I wrote down everything I ate… Read how I did it…

I haven’t started yet and its almost noon. I woke up only a couple of hours ago. I am hungover from last night’s partying. But that doesn’t mean that I’m not going to win this year.
