    MamaKitty is having a bright and beautiful day!

    This goal is too general for my needs  — 2 months ago

    Worth doing!

    With some things I follow through and others I have difficulty meeting. I’m retiring this goal, but hope to address this challenge through my Review Goals goal…

    And in a note of irony  — 3 months ago

    Worth doing!

    I’m looking forward to babysitting for crazy mom today. :)

    What does this mean?  — 3 months ago

    It means that when I say or plan to do something, I’ll do it, no matter how scared I am.

    Helping myself  — 3 months ago

    Worth doing!

    Getting balance and being realistic in my expectations is a major challenge. Sometimes modifying my goal is a partial answer. Sometimes finding inspiration is important. Also, getting organized would help. Discipline in babysteps is frequently needed. This entry is just helping to clear my head and move forward.

    Just a Few More Days!!!  — 3 months ago

    Worth doing!

    I had a big one here! I agreed to sit again for a mom I babysat for once. Bad idea. We have some major personality clashing going on… So I had two choices. First, to ditch the job (which I’ve never done) or hand it off to someone else. Second, to show up for the dates we previously agreed upon and let those be the end of my working for her. I thought about how well she pays (very well), took a deep breath, and will being showing up for work.

    Now, had I handled the situation by finding her another sitter or showing up (which I’m going to do), I would have considered this following through tactfully.

    But I have 5 more days before I can move this goal into the win column, so I figured this goes in the “Write About It” section :)

    Progress Report  — 3 months ago

    Worth doing!

    Still on it! Even with the big things, I’m staying on task and finishing what I start and following through with everything :)

    Worth doing!

    I’ve been good since I joined 43things.com. I’ve returned phone calls, mailed papers, birthday cards, and even got two packages of goodies out to friend who have college finals this week; ON TIME!! I think following through fell under my umbrella of procrastination, and since that needed the most work, everything attached to it has been tackled with the same vigor. Also, I guess the thing about “busy people get more done” works. If I can make it until May 21st (a month from when I joined 43) and maintain this pace of following through, I’ll consider this goal accomplished.

    Untitled  — 5 months ago

    I went to a party that I was putting off for ages on Saturday night. I had a falling out with a few friends yearrsss ago who would be there…and they were, but I held my head high despite the lack of acknowledgement on either end. Score one for the esteem.

    Apparently, I’m notorious for not following through on decisions I’ve made. About 90% of the decisions concern me, my life, my education, but it’s gotten to the point where other people have noticed the pattern. Time to put a stop to it, and become a (wo)man of my word.
