Weekly Goals

Well, last week was a monster, what with unexpected diagnoses and a whole lot of drafting done. Mixed bag, for sure.

This week will be interesting as well. My dad's doctor appointments are multiplying, and we're waiting to hear when he'll go in for surgery on his leg. This is stressful, and more so since I'm still living at home. If I had my own place, I feel like this would be easier for me to handle.

I work at an accounting firm in the US, so April 15th is a big deadline. This just means the office is really busy until then. Good news, though! The 16th is a firm holiday! We all get a paid day off. Glorious, but I don't know what to do with my day.

Goal-wise, much of this week will just be focused on surviving. I'll have piles of work to do, but writing keeps me sane. Even if I only get to write journal entries, I'll write every day. Something has to keep me grounded...

One more story left to go on the historical fiction story collection! This will be the fastest I've ever gotten through a single draft. It's no behemoth, but it's what it needs to be right now. Lots of revisions to do.

I think I'll let my proofreading sit for a few days until I run out of real-job tedium to handle. Then I can blaze through and finish it.

Like I said, gotta survive.
