Thought it was time for another progress report... to kick myself in the arse...

1. Take a basic car maintenance class/workshop
I called my car insurance company, and they had no recommendations. I looked in all the local class catalogs and found some major classes on the subject, but nothing as small as I want. Maybe I'll try to find some "teach yourself" course?

3. Stay in touch with college friends I’ve reconnected with
I haven't been doing as well as I'd like, but I have made progress

4. Keep in touch with my KS better
I've been doing better than usual :-)

5. Re-write weekly schedule and try better to follow it
I haven't been following it AT ALL. Maybe I should look it over again to make it more realistic.

6. Learn basic sign language (i.e. more than what I know already)
I've looked around online for some DVDs, but none really seem so useful (either too fast or too slow). There do, however, seem to be some interesting software packages I might look into.

9. Work out at least 3 times a week
I've stopped working out. I really, really need to start working out again

11. Floss at least 5 times a week if not every single day
I've stopped doing this as well. Must try harder.

12. Drink & finish a bottle of water every week
Okay, I don't think I've done this since week 1. Not good.

16. Start taking Centrum vitamins again
I have some and took a few, but stopped. I'll try to keep up with them.

17. Walk to the library at least once a month (weather permitting)
SO hot lately, I think I'd just about die if I tried.

19. Grow hair out to 10+ inches past chin and donate to Locks of Love
It's growing!

22. Buy 10 things for Toys for Tots
I actually bought a little Lego set the other day for Toys for Tots :-)

26. Put a recycling bin in the laundry room and empty it myself regularly
Er... I haven't emptied it... and now I have another pile I really need to take upstairs. I'll try better with this, too.

28. Separate laundry (don’t just wash all at once on cold)
Actually, I've done a great job with this. All but one load (which had to be done quickly, before my Iowa trip) was separated

29. Clean from 3pm-5pm every Sunday- no excuses!
Meep. Not doing well with this

31. Keep car gas level at least half full at all times
I let it get to almost empty once, but only once in the last 7 months. And that let me get an almost free car wash (special deal where you get a car wash almost free with 8+ gallons of gas).

34. Pair down closet and move all clothes out of Simon’s room
Haven't done a thing... but it's getting bad.

36. Back up computer completely once every two months
OMG why am I not doing this???

40. Go through digital camera cards and print/save/delete all photos
I did go through and delete a few... but I still have about 200 pictures saved

43. Write & submit another BookCrossing article
I thought about an idea... maybe I should buckle down and actually write it?

49. Start an LGBT BookBox
Someone else started one, and I joined it, using many of the books I'd set aside for my own. So... negative progress here.

52. Make a better list/system of books I mail out (spreadsheet) and keep up with it
I've been keeping up with it somewhat

64. Bring Kintail: the Dreamscape & BookCrossing websites up to date
The other day I posted 80+ stories on my shrieking shack site (part of Kintailscape). But this is far from accomplished.

74. Finish archiving the Chronicle and complete the Photo Archives
I'm about halfway done with the photo archives

75. Get everyone moved to Adobe CS3
I'm 99% done with this!

77. Bring goodies to work bi-weekly
I've been excellent about this. Especially since I buy food for my writers' roundtable and take all the leftovers (which is always a ton) to work afterwards.

79. Update Software Inventory & keep it updated!
I plan to update its Monday or Tuesday this week

81. Do & win NaNoWriMo 2007, 2008, etc.
I've got my 2007 idea... I just need a plot!

82. Keep an ongoing master list (spreadsheet) of all stories I finish
I've been doing a good job at this

85. Make one entry every month to my Rectacular journal
I haven't been doing this at all!

91. Start reading slash-dot and try to keep up with techie news
I have the RSS feed on my work computer and I try to read stories once a day or at least a few times a week.

96. Go to the Zoo (see new Asia section & new panda before he’s gone)
I'm thinking of doing this maybe next weekend or the weekend after.
