Now Playing: Takin' Care of Business-BTO
Topic: Still Plugging
Monday. Hmmm. Just in case you are out there thinking about how blissful and perfect your life would be if you could have your dream job, let me be the first to tell you that it is STILL A JOB!!! And for all of the people who keep saying to me "But you don't have to work!" I say...keep reading!
Went into the Ceramics class today and did a show and tell of my clay work to the kids who are starting their first semester. I got a taste of what it is like to try to make teenagers enthusiastic about anything at 8am on a Monday. I felt like the teacher in Ferris Bueller's Day Off-"Bueller...Bueller..." WOW-I still think it would be rewarding to teach.
I got back home to work on my BIG GOAL for the week-BUSINESS PLAN-submit final draft by Friday for review. Exciting.
I have a really good example of a plan submitted by one of the companies that have successfully completed their program. I set it aside so that I could refer to it when I was having difficulties with mine. I went to get it this morning when I sat down to work, and what do you know I COULDN'T FIND IT!!! I spent most of the weekend cleaning and reorganizing, and apparently I put it in one of those SPECIAL places, where I would(n't!) be able to locate it easily. SMOOTH!
While this was a little frustrating, and I spent some time looking for it, and wondering if maybe I was self-sabotaging, I didn't allow it to stop me from working on the things that I could do without it, and I got a couple of hours in on my draft. AAAAHHHHHHHH!!! (that was relief-not the other kind of AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!)
Now hopefully tonight, along with the perfect envelopes, I will be able to visualize WHERE MY SECRET HIDING SPOT IS!!! (It's always something!)
