It's March now, and I'm seriously tempted to just slide right on past talking about what I had for goals last month and go right on to this month's goals.
That probably makes it pretty obvious how well they went.
On the editing front I got about halfway done. I've marked up the entire book, and figured out what major changes I'm making, but I'm only about four chapters into actually making them. I'm at that stage in editing that gets sort of consistently crippled by self doubt, and unlike the initial writing I can just tell myself it's okay for it to be crap.
My writing goal from last month was just.. No. Just no. Two chapters doesn't even count as failure.
I finished The Fault in Our Stars and all I can say about it was that I cried a lot and John Green frequently makes me feel inadequate as a writer and a person. I like him very much.
The socks I made for my mother-in-law were about three-quarters done at her birthday.
And obviously the blog front is the one thing I haven't failed at this month.
Below are picturey things.

So. What's the plan for this month? Basically a second crack at last month, only with the tea-cozy my mother requested for her birthday. Also I'm going to finish John Scalzi's The Ghost Brigades and The Last Colony.
But March is also my husbands birthday and my wedding anniversary and... No worries. It'll happen this month.
Tomorrow resumes normal programming, and we're talking about Camels so you've got that to look forward to.
