A Linky of Goals

I hear that Las Vegas is overtaken with teachers this week.  I am not one of them, and neither is Chrissy from Read Write Sing.  Instead she's doing a linky, and I'm linking up.

Personal Goal: Sing, sing out loud

The oddest thing happens when I'm on vacation from teaching.  I tend to lose my voice a bit, and it's certainly not from overly talking since I live by myself.  It doesn't entirely go away.  It just tightens up and feels strained.  I'd like to get it working at an optimal level though, because next week my cousin and I are heading to the studio to work on a second Christmas CD.  

Home Goal: Green green grass of home

It's pretty hot here in Idaho right now, and I have a few spots of grass that are in need of some TLC.  Since for some reason my sprinklers aren't doing the trick, I broke out my hose.  Every morning those spots are getting some extra attention.  I'd like to keep my lawn happy, so I hope this works.

Professional Goal: Gotta keep reading

I've read 14 books this summer but only one has been a professional book.  I've got some great teacher reads in my pile.  Even though I really do want to get to them, I think my challenging year put the breaks on my fervor a bit.  Plus, I've had a craving for fiction.  Regardless, I'll get her done.  

Thanks Chrissy for the linky.  Click on the graphic above if you'd like to share your goals too.
