Western Pasqueflower

I'm still dreaming about hiking and the views... on my 76th day in a row writing a blog post and practicing French. By now this whole streak attempt has become a habit and with all the stuff on my to do list I wonder what else I can attempt to turn into a habit by challenging myself to do it every single day. By keeping track as a streak at least I remember to do it everyday. If I chip away a little every singe day on some of these long term projects I have then eventually they'll get finished too. I guess that means its time for me to start another list.

Organizing the insane amount of photographs I have taken is on that list. Finishing the 4 books I have halfway completed is another. I need to prioritize and get these things done. Especially the photography part, there's always going to be more photos I want to take especially when hiking season is here again so I must make the most of these cold rainy days. It's okay to daydream for while and then back to work. It's motivation to get thru the dirty tasks so I can focus on the fun that's to come when it's all done. And when the weather is better for being outside.

Changing Choices

Just before the start of Round the County out of Roche Harbor on Sunday last year.

I chose this picture for this post today because Round The County is coming up this weekend. The annual party at Anacortes Yacht Club is tomorrow night beginning a tradition that takes place every year. Orcas Island yacht club hosts this two day event that has an overnight stop in Roche Harbor on San Juan Island. I won't be sailing this year because I'm making the choice to change.

One of the changes I'm making today, is to this website as I have now made my A-musing Blog my homepage so the first thing you see when you visit will be the last thing I have shared online. I'm making the choice to write more and to work on a lot of my projects I have had good intentions of finishing before now. I've suffered from a lot of distractions and a bad habit of procrastination coupled with some healthy excuses. The time has come however to choose to change and part of that involves sailing less and writing more. My goal is to attempt to write something on my blog every day followed by a good amount of time writing other things after on the computer. I need to get my books finished and published so now is the time to push. I hope you enjoy my daily musings in the meantime and I hope all my friends have a safe and fun time sailing around San Juan County this weekend with out me.
