Some firsts for the year!

There've been 5 days in January. Here are my firsts so far.

1st week going to the gym this year.
1st week being irritated with my husband. We're usually pretty good, but human. And, he can be pretty irritating. =)
1st massage of the year. Yeah!! Love bi-weekly massages.
1st week in my new office. Loving it more than I expected.
1st week of working on my goals for 2018 in which Deb & I have started working with Lara Casey.
1st child of mine's birthday of the year (Happy 23rd Birthday Caitlin - today!)
1st time I watched my son, Andrew, open his Christmas and Birthday presents via face time while he's in New Zealand (He has always been home for Christmas.)
1st Friday of the year (TGIF!)

That's all I can think of for now. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

We weren't talking about referrals or new clients - because the bottom line is that's something we all need. However, the overall consensus was that just about everyone wanted to get more organized and wanted advice on how to do that. Of course, this brought me back to my business plans for 2016. Time Block scheduling. I've tried unsuccessfully to set my calendar this way. I'll pick dates that I'm going to do a certain task and somehow they don't get done at that time. They'll usually get done that day - but the time varies based on what's going on in my day. I'm not quite sure how people stick to the time they say they're going to do something.
