How's it going? I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long, I've been away from the board since Thursday. I was thinking about your goals, and thought to myself that it would be a good time for both of us to re-read the DR section on goal-setting. I'm going to try to re-assess my own goals also.

I love to read too. Maybe refine the goal to include a list of books you've been meaning to read? Include weekly trips to the library or bookstore? Weekly trip to someplace quiet to read?

Specific goal would be to attend a certain number of support group meetings a month? Maybe arrange to meet some of your new friends after the support group meetings?

I like this one too! Maybe a goal of getting the yard in good shape? Planting a new garden? Going a whole week without nagging the kids?

What makes you laugh and/or feel positive? Add that to your goals!
I don't have anything to add to your R goals. I think you've done a great job. Try to remember that now is the time to focus on you! Hugs...
