I am doing my nite time accountability blog early so that I can be sure it gets done. =)

What I accomplished today:

• Morning Accountability Call

• Watch Your Animated Vision Board

• Complete One Task w/in 1 Hour of Waking

• Complete All Tasks on Today’s Checklist
  • Start painting Tristan’s mural
  • Study
  • Put away laundry

• Meditate for at Least 20 Minutes

• Night Accountability Call <— Doing NOW =)

• Watch Your Animated Vision Board Before Bed

• Create Tomorrow’s Task Checklist

• Complete Daily Reflections <– Doing NOW =)

So, I got all the laundry put away this morning, and ALMOST got sidetracked into cleaning the closets, but refocused myself on the tasks I had planned for today.  I started painting the monkey for  Tristans mural, and got most of it completed. (You have to let each color dry, then do a second coat, then dry before moving on to the next color.) I should be able to finish tomorrow!  This is great since I started this mural for his room about 9 months ago when we moved in, and never finished painting the monkey… I will post pictures when it’s finished, its really cute.

Okay, then when Tristan was napping and thus preventing me from painting in his room, I switched gears  and started to study.  I still have mixed feelings about becoming a teacher but I am going to go ahead and take the tests again anyway.  Part of my reluctance to take the tests was due to my husbands constant inquesition about how much studying I had done each day, when I am scheduling the tests, and impromtu “quizes”. He had great intentions but all he accomplished was instilling a sense of dread and fear about taking the tests and failing them.  After speaking with him a couple weeks ago about not being sure I wanted to be a teacher he has completly let the subject go. Now that I am not feeling pressured and stressed, I am ready to begin studying on MY terms and MY time.  I am not going to tell him I am studying and planning to take the tests. I’ll inform him when I get my test scores in for both tests saying I passed! YAY! Then I can proclaim I did it on my own!

I feel pretty great about today. I stayed focus on the tasks I assigned for myself, and was able to accomplish quite a bit.  I created a study plan for myself for the first teaching test, and now have confidence in myself and my ability to pass the test!

The only task I have not done yet today is meditate.  I am going to try and take some advise from a friend and do this as I lay down for bed.  It is when I have the most quiet and I am the most relaxed.  We shall see how it goes… =)

Tomorrow I have pretty much the same game plan as today.  Finish painting Tristans mural, study, and instead of laundry I am hoping to meet my husband for a lunch date. =)

I hope you enjoyed your day!

Goodnite,

Jessica
