Mid November Goals Check In

[forestofglory]

It's the middle of the month so I'm reviewing my goals for the month. It turns out that having our house painted is very noisy actually, also the kid was home sick for a good chunk of last week, so I have been struggling a bit to get things done. Here's how its going so far.

1) Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Break
I have menu planned! Also I have arranged to have some help with the chopping and other wrist work. That's a reasonable amount of stuff done at this point.

2)Write fic or LB posts on 15 days.
I've written on 6 days! I started a really fun fic project of writing book reviews form the POV of fictional characters. Will it be story shaped? Probably not, but I finished a plotly fic and now its time to frolic with small weird things!

3) Sew two long sleeve shirts for the kid
I have one shirt partial constructed, and the other one cut out. I would have preferred to have one of them finished at this point, but progress is being made.

4)Complete another classical Chinese lesson, stretch goal: complete a second one
I did this! And I made some progress of second lesson! (It helps that I switched from the main text book where I'm at lesson 14, to my secondary textbook where I'm at lesson 6. But its nice that lesson 6 feels easy, because maybe I am actually learning stuff?)

I would have liked to be a bit more ahead because I know the second half of the month is going to be busy, but circumstances have not be favorable.

How is your month going so far?

You got a heap done really! Especially if you include getting the house painted, which is a big job even when someone else is doing the actual painting. Hope the kiddo's all better now!

I uh....started doing nanowrimo, then my laptop broke and had to be sent for repairs. It's now going to Sydney to the manufacturer's headquarters so they can decide if they'll fix it for free or not, and then I got covid, so I have up on that plan real quick.

My new plan is to lie down as much as possible and maybe finally finish watching Kinnporsche, that Thai BL everyone was talking about a couple of months ago.

The kiddo seems to be fully recovered!

I'm sorry you've had such a rough month, I hope it gets better!

I've heard Kinnporsche is very over the top, I hope it brings you joy.

It is very silly! I'm having a little trouble suspending my disbelief (why would "in love with him" outweigh "he coerced you into working for the mafia" in terms of how you feel about him???) but it's been pretty fun overall.
