March
Work-related:
- I didn’t write a single word in all of March. I really didn’t intend to. I had too much on my mind.
- I completed 5 editing projects for other authors in March!
Health-related:
- I had an immunotherapy appointment. Such a breeze after chemo!
- Otherwise, I pushed my health and my stats completely out of my mind. I didn’t need the stress!
Happiness-related:
- I attended my art guild’s meeting this month for a Show & Tell of what we’ve all been working on. It was really nice!
- I painted every day until this last week as part of #the100dayproject. Here are a few small pieces I completed:
April
- To complete 1 or 2 editing projects in April, but not beginning them until mid-month to give myself time to recover.
For health-related, I plan:
- To undergo a radical hysterectomy, plus a couple of other organs on the 1st!
- To undergo immunotherapy whenever my oncologist says I’m ready for more.
- To rest and recover!
For happiness-related, I plan:
- To spend time with the family while I recover from surgery. I’ll be in the living room in a lift chair for quite a while. I’ll be impossible to ignore. LOL.
- To continue the #100dayproject when I’m ready.

I’m working on trying a self-care routine of journaling and although they don’t list it, I always consider reading self-care, I have that one down pat.

I like the art work and the fact you got to go to the guild meeting. It’s cool to be around others who understand your craft. I used to love going to quilting group.
