I can't believe what a cluster last week ended up being. Some of it's sensitive so I don't want to get into all of it, but suffice it to say that my husband's cold was only the first interruption of the week. Car problems and a rather stressful situation with one of my Facebook groups took care of the rest.
This week is already off to a rip-roaring start, too. I have a lot on my list to do for the week, but today didn't go as planned. Tomorrow won't either, since I have to run an unexpected errand, and then I have a (planned) visit from my mom in the evening. I have planned "interruptions" pretty much every day this week, actually, which is going to leave little time to get things done.
One of the "interruptions" is a big deal and an accomplishment, if it goes well, so I can't feel bad about that. I'm just frustrated with the lack of time to work on things I'd like to work on.
I'll do my best though, and probably spend some time trying to catch up on stuff around the house on the weekend. Here's last week's rundown, and the plan for this week.
Doll stringing ebook: I did move this to Wednesday, and I'm glad I did as there was no way it would have gotten done today. I'm hoping to get back on track so that I won't push it back again.
Ruby Ransome: Once again, I opted to shift this back another week. I have too much to do this week. I am reminding myself that I told myself last week that was okay!
Blogging and website maintenance: I didn't get much done here, on social media either. Just two blog posts last week. I have ideas for some reels, but I haven't had a chance to film them yet.
Other projects: Not much happened with my organization project last week. Even the weekend ended up being too full to work on anything. Hopefully I can make up for that this week. I'm trying to leave the weekend open for it.
On the horizon: I meant to reach out to my various contacts about starting to make plans for NaNoWriMo, but it didn't happen last week. It's on the docket for this week. It's too early to be making most plans yet, but there are a few things that should get on the calendar sooner rather than later.
Some weeks I feel pretty good about things, and other weeks I feel like I'm caught in a riptide and I need to focus on keeping my head above water before I can even think about trying to go anywhere else. Last week was one of the latter, and this week may not be much better. Hopefully by the end of the week all the "interruptions" will be over with and I can spend some time over the weekend on my projects.
