This week I am pleased by:
Dec. 12th, 2008 12:41 pm* Two accordion practice sessions squeezed in (*giggles at pun*),
* Chapter draft finished, cleaned up, sent off to give other people nightmares,
* Some attempts at (non-panicked) thought about how to write three pieces for New Job while I am away,
* Exercise everyday! Cycling Monday and Tuesday, gym with Jason on Wednesday, walked with Nath on Thursday, cycled again this morning,
* Sorted out my files for learning Greek, and did a reasonable amount of practice,
* Some progress made on preparing for my masterclass thingy next week,
* Lovely inside-cleaning by Liz and Tim (thanks!) plus two hours of outside-cleaning means our house is now lovely and sparkly,
* Spring peas! Baby pumpkin! Tomatoes!
Also, quite apart from my achievements, I have had Much Spoiling from many lovely people.
I feel like it's going to be ok. Now, I just have to convince myself that finishing-chapter-draft means it's time to start working frantically on all the other things (priorities: next chapter draft, masterclass preparation, articles for New Job, 'treats': accordion, christmas presents, greek practice, fiction), rather than time to have a little lie-down.
