Things of Note:
This past week was pretty darn productive for me. I finished a big project and sent it off to print for a client. I did business-y things like paying my quarterly sales tax and balancing accounts. I actually have several posts scheduled for this blog, and one for my business blog. I read like 4 books. Also this past week, we had mostly sunshine and not grey days. I do not believe this is just coincidence. Though the book reading may at least also have had something to do with Ian having to work late every night last week, and me having lots of evening hours free. Whatevs.
Here’s hoping the productive streak continues this week. 🙂
How is your January going so far? New year productivity or grey winter slothness?
