happiness project: work + misc (jul)

Thrive!, Project 43 and the monthly projects in my Happiness Project … so many projects! In reality, they are all facets of the same project, guiding me to finish or give up old projects and move forward on the ones that are most important to me.

June’s main theme was Blogs. I’ve worked hard over the past year to get pass off many websites/blogs, delete others, and clean up the remaining. This major project is so close to being done!! It feels great. Once done finishing the work on GBK, I might work on updating themes and headers and widgets for the very few remaining blogs.

July:
July’s main theme is “Work”. I’m not quite sure what I want to do with this other than updating my resume and my LinkedIn. I’d like to work on learning some new work related skills, such as the DataScientist’s Toolbox course I took at Coursera.

In addition, my plans for the month include small items from other month’s topics, such as decorating the master bedroom, getting a better will written, organizing my paper files, improving my flexibility, walking 10K steps EVERY DAY, cleaning up the ArtisanDecatur email list, and maybe buying new knives to make cooking easier.

Many of these small items are the same as last month, but some have been crossed off, and I have moved forward on all of them, and I think a few more of might finally be completed this month. It really is a great feeling to be able to cross off many items “for good”!

As usual, whatever doesn’t get done gets cycled back into the plan at a later date. I’ve crossed off a number of ongoing projects in the past month, and I look forward to getting more things organized and done as well as progressing in the longer-term projects. Yet again I wish I had taken more photos!
