A Post Filler

Alright, maybe not quite the correct title. But its a working title.

I think it might be time to set up a few goals for me, possibly to distract from the trip next year and being a little tired of having folks ask what the plans are in the future.

Cause I don’t really know.

But, through a blogger I follow, I learned about a book called Ultralearning (and will be requesting a copy from my library), and can’t help but admit that I am super interested and wondering if I can use that to learn a few things. And maybe keep track of learning them here.

While maintaining all the other things I do. Which is where the rub comes in.

Things I would like to learn:

  • Drawing/Painting (have been working on the coloring aspect for over a year now)
  • Programming (okay, mostly excel, but still)
  • Learning German (to the best I can without living there.)

Just to name the main ones that could be attainable.

And here are the other things that I do:

  • Dance classes (I teach) anywhere from 1-2 hours one day a week
  • Coloring 1 1/2 hours a week
  • Book Clubs, about 4 hours a month
  • I usually try to do a movie night every week. Having people over forces me to try and keep my place neat.
  • Cooking – though this is really secondary
  • Reading. Attempting to do a book a day, or at least a book a week. This is one that does get faster and faster as long as I keep it up. And, because Life is Too Short to Read Bad Books, there are often reviews that I don’t finish the book for. They are not my kind of books.
  • Watching TV/YouTube/movies. It’s a thing I like to do, but can do other things at the same time.
  • Quilting. I have one that I am working on now for a donation, and I have two others (okay, 4 others) that I would like to do this fall/winter/spring
  • I travel on the weekends. Its a thing that I do. But, with how it sounds like this winter is going to go, I will not be traveling as much as I have in the past.
  • Writing. It’s a thing.
  • Oh, and sleep.

It’s… um… it’s a lot of things. I enjoy staying busy. But, I do want to work on learning new things. I think that will help with the slight concentration issues I have been having. Maybe?

Don’t worry, I have a review for another Skeleton Family Mystery that should be going up tomorrow and another review about a book that I found… very hard to get through. I’ll hopefully keep you up-to-date if I try to learn anything new…
