February Update

 February is an extra day long this year. I had been looking forward to another trip of a lifetime with my husband in February, but given that our marriage is ending, I thought it best to not take that trip with him and instead go home to see family and friends in the midwest. While the trip was good it wasn’t as restorative as I had hoped; I guess I just need to give myself more time. 


Things I did that I am proud of this month: 

  1. I put in audition tapes to be an audiobook narrator. Not sure if anything will come of it, but I'm proud of myself for trying
  2. I updated my address with the DMV- I am putting off getting a new license until I change my name back and that's a ways off. 
  3. I did another 10 items on my bucket list - the items are getting harder. There are a few I am swapping out for things I can actually access / am interested in. 
    1. The highlights of this month were: Fused Glass, PWHL MN v Boston Game, and visiting a speakeasy.
  4. Got my Global Entry Updated- I was told it would be easier to update it now and then change my name on it when the name change goes through- I guess we'll see.
  5. I am setting boundaries with friends and at work. 
  6. I got everything out of the house I shared with my husband
  7. I set new long term goals for myself 
  8. I am starting to learn about investing in the stock market. 
  9. I finished listening to a book. By this time last year I had listened to 10 or more books but this year has been different. Not a lot of brain power or drive to listen or learn or do anything beyond surviving. But I fished my first book of the year and have hope I will have energy for more soon. 

Goal for next month- 10 more dates with myself (or my friends who are always happy to join), finish unpacking everything, hang the last of the art.
