Okay, so the blog post title is definitely me being lazy. What can I say? I'm tired right now. Sundays do that to me. Anyways, it will be Monday soon and it's time to check in with my goals.
Goal 1: Write my ghost story. Which still needs a title. – Haven't done this.
Goal 2: Edit Out of Secrets. I have notes from MB and MJ. They are on my desktop, staring at me. –I thought about doing this, but didn't.

Goal 3: Read. I got some books for Christmas so might as well start there. – I DID THIS! I read two, count it two, books. A collection of Christmas themed short stories by Larry Kollar and World After by Susan Ee. I've waited over two years for this book. Worth it.
Goal 4: This is the most important goal. Not let myself get down, and if I do, remember I have friends who care about my happiness and well being. – I was a bit down the other day and my #writemotivation peeps rallied around me... I had no idea how to react to the positive. I was expecting to be ignored. (More about that for my IWSG post.)
Goal 5: Reread Snapshots and do any edits if needed. – I started this. I'm on chapter three. I need to blog about this too. Later though. Monday is my 9 hour shift day at the day job, so I'm declaring it my day off from writing.
Not too shabby, but it's only the beginning of the month. I have to keep this momentum and motivation up. Easier to say when I've had three days off. I still have to see how I manage on days I work the day job. But I've started daily to do lists and I'm hoping the accountability it provides will keep me going.
