Focus Friday, Week 3

1. Send out my Sister and Stepmom's birthday presents (yes, done! Whoa!)
2. Find my camera cable (finally found it.... with every other cable I own)
3. Download my Christmas photos (yes, and made backup cd's too!)
4. Call the dog sitter and have her over to cover the many quirks of the three amigos (did this... and they just love her. Jordan is going to be wonderful with them)
5. Get ready to go to the mountains for our weekend getaway (totally ready. Can you believe this? We packed everything up last night after work so when we get home tonight from work, it get's loaded in the truck and off we go! OH YEAH!)

I'm not sure what to add for this week.... hmmmm.

I really want to work on some "me" stuff.

By golly, I've got it!

1. Study up on my Reiki "skillz". For those who don't know what Reiki is, it's a Japanese technique that is used to promote healing through opening the chakras. I am a Reiki Master/Teacher and practice Reiki when I'm not working my "day job".
2. Work on my scrapbooking. I won't even begin to pick one to begin on because there are sooo many pictures, themes, etc I could go with. I'll just start with the one that jumps out first!
3. Play with my camera. I have this great Canon Rebel XSI and I can do a lot with it already, but I really want to become more proficient. That's a good place to start focusing!

Focus Friday, Week 2

Ok, we are back... Week 2 already? Wow. That went fast... and I did not exactly complete my list! So, better luck next time? Please take a peek over at thrifyandchicmoms blog for more details if you're interested in joining in on this lovely accountibility list!

1. Update my 2009 calendar with all important dates (so done... sooo sooo done)
2. Take time each evening to read with the kid before bed (yes, complete and very nice.... although we need to make sure that I remain in a less vertical position during these reading times, as to not make it more of a cuddle/sleep time)!
3. Purchase birthday cards for the year (done, and I'm so glad because it's such a pain)
4. Send out my Sister and Stepmom's birthday presents (ok, this isn't done but I still have time... their birthday's aren't until the last few days of the month.... they are going on monday, promise)
5. Download my Christmas photos (this is totally not my fault.... I went to download the pics from my card and it's not reading them! what the? So, I'm still working on it. I'm just going to attach my camera to the cable - which means locating the cable)

Alrighty then; 3/5 isn't horrible is it? I'm moving on.

Focus Friday

Being the completely focused person that I am ....

I am so excited to be a part of this wonderful weekly series! Over the last year, I have become increasingly "focused" and "organized" but I still need some improvement. thriftyandchicmom has put out this great little suggestion to assist in our success, and if you'd like to join me head on over to her blog and join in! I'm sure she (and I) would love to have you. Thanks once again to my wonderful friend, blueviolet for letting me in on this!

So, my focus this week.... hmmm..... where to begin.....

oh, that's right; <STAY FOCUSED HERE>.

• Update my 2009 calendar with all important dates (ok, I've already actually done this but I wanted some sort of credit.... lol)
• Take time each evening to read with my son before bed.
• Purchase birthday cards for the year (I did this last year and put them in a monthly folder, it was so nice to just grab the cards each month, and send them out.... oh and the dollar store has great deals for cards btw)!
• Send my Sister and Stepmom their birthday presents (to arrive on time/early... whoa)!
• Download my Christmas photos!
