Picking & Sticking

My husband thinks I don't listen to him. I'll own that I can see where he's coming from. But this micro-blog is a testament to my commitment to try to show that I do listen. Well, most of the time :-) Yesterday he told me he was reading my blog. (P.S. I haven't blogged in almost 2 years.) I asked, "Which post?" He said, "All of them." I mean, can you say "loving, romantic husband"???!!! He then encouraged me to start writing more. Believe, I'd love to!

In trying to live my work though, I told him it will have to be a 2nd quarter area of focus. You see, two plus years into being a working parent I have a keen awareness that my "free time" (defined as non-work; non-family; non-home) is both incredibly limited and  precious so I need to be extra discerning about where it goes. And a tool I've implemented to make the best use of said time is to just pick one thing that time will be dedicated to for a quarter or other specified period of time.  I call it "Picking & Sticking". This  quarter my "free time" is going to preparing for my second degree black belt promotion--although if you were my main instructor you probably wouldn't believe it.  But there it is.

So, blogging will need to wait until April. For now, this mini micro-blog is my pre-Valentine's Day way of saying to my biggest fan, the artist, that I love him, I appreciate his support and that I do listen. And for any other readers who've stopped by, thanks for indulging this morning's romantic gesture. I appreciate you too! Happy Heart Week!
