Progress, Week #2

Wow, not much progress this week as far as my weekly goals. The days go by waaaay too fast. Just two weeks in and I'm back to my age-old question, do I let myself do what I feel like doing, even if what I feel like doing is not doing things that feel too difficult? I mean, I don't have to do anything. But I always feel the need to do something and I have aspirations of doing lots and lots of things. This week I felt like reading, so I did finish the book, The Yellow House and thought about art a lot, which felt good. I remembered how much I love Humanities and Art History. It made me want to read tons of art history books.

I also made some good meals and spent some quality time with family. Jenny came over for dinner and Adam came up! I learned how to play Magic cards and actually found that I enjoyed it! I played video games and found myself wanting to actually get on a basketball court and play a game. Weird! I tried to work on my book binding project, but found that I did the next step wrong and had to rip out the binding. Boo. I find with so little time to dedicate to any one project I end up doing a sloppier job than I would like to. I made patriotic brownies for the Fourth of July and made videos of Jhonen with my iPhone. Tomorrow I think Mel and I might get out the sewing machine and make the baby slings. I'll post pictures of the results! I think for my next sewing project (if there is one...we'll see how tomorrow goes...) I want to sew myself a cute apron. I wore one while I made the brownies and felt very housewify, in a good way!

So, the question is, if I'm going to ignore my weekly goals and do whatever the heck I want to anyway should I continue writing weekly goals at all?
