Celebrate the Small Things & Goals

It's a pleasure to Celebrate the Small Things each week. 
Go to Scribblings of an Aspiring Author to Join.

 1. The weather finally cooperated and was able to start puttering around in my gardens.

 2. Put up the awning and opened the pool. YAY! Looks like summer is approaching.

 3. Went to a nice restaurant for dinner and devoured delicious lobster ravioli.
Yikes! I was actually dreading this post. Mainly because I've basically thrown my goals in the trash heap. However, I have a good excuse. I've been helping my daughter daily since the birth of our first grand-baby. She's been sick, but now doing great. 

 Summer in Buffalo is short lived, so I plan on being outdoors as much as possible. Although, I don't wish to take a writing hiatus. With that said I'll shoot for a minor goal--10k on my current wip by our next post.

 Thanks to Misha Gericke for this monthly hop and join here to reach your goal.

    Lobster ravioli! It's still breakfast time for me, but I'm already think how I might get a few of those. Glad to hear your daughter is better.

    I love that you used the word "puttering." Not enough people do.

    Lobster ravioli-- oh yum.

    This week my goals have been in the trash heap too, but I've enjoyed a dinner out. I hope that we recharge our batteries and dive back in to getting those goals done!

    Great idea to shoot for a smaller target. Those little bits really can make a difference, even if you still come in under. Once you're back on track, the bits you wrote will come in handy to finish faster.

    Congrats on the grandbaby!

    I am so happy that your daughter is doing better and you are more able to delight in your grandchild (and to think I thought you just out of college - don't ask me why!)

    Your writing goal can wait (but not for TOO long, I hope!) Your daughter and her baby must come first. Enjoy the summer and enjoy the new grandchild :)
