Monday

Launch one new Potbelly song per week.
I have no plans to launch a new song this week. Next Monday, I'll switch to Christmas music, and I may try to add a new Christmas song to my repertoire each week, although it will be work enough dusting off the list I already have.

Post at WordPress at least once per month.
Pending... and I should take my Echo recorder to Maryland for Thanksgiving, because I bet my brother would love to check it out. Maybe I can record something there, since I'll have all kinds of free time.

Launch one new Praise Band song per month.
Goal met.

Write one new original song per month.
Goal met. "Invalid Item"  .

Write new lyrics once per day through November.
Fail... and I've decided to can this goal. It was my measly attempt to NaNo in my own way, but it's not a total loss. I wrote several songs early in the month, which just need music now.

Current real estate goal: Organize garage.
Nope, though I haven't had a lot of bites on my house, either, which means the whole process is stalled anyway. It's time to lower the price.

Read a book in print for fifteen minutes every day.
Goal met. I like this goal.

Business: Location. Start looking into real estate opportunities.
No activity.

Business: Music Instruction Books.
No activity. Well, I hand-wrote "The First Noel" in a student's music notebook, so he can learn it for recital. I did not save it on my computer, which means I'll have to do it again at some point. *shrug*
