June Goals

How Well Did May Go?
Enjoy our 28th Anniversary Check:)  Ate lunch at Yamoto Japanese Steakhouse!
Do well at 1st Friday Art Walk Sold 1....still consistent!  Miracle occurred....the reader who's hounded me for six years finally bought the one she wanted!
Mail pkgs to Wa and Tx  Not yet....
Write #2 Regrets  Not yet....
Lose 5 lbs (start 238) (5/10:  237!!  -1; 5/31, 238...ugh!  I blame the fries I'd eaten on the 30th!)
Organize more basement  Videos, check.  Now to start on stuff against outside wall.
Work in either Green or Brown House  No time this month; too rainy.
Order copies of CR (Proof copies ordered 5/10!; 10 copies ordered 5/24:) and Dreamscape Still not released yet
Work as many hours as possible, in order to finish paying for upcoming events Check:)
Do well at Opening Day of Farmer's Market Sold 5!
Have an enjoyable Memorial Day weekend with family:  Check:)
     -Rendezvous:  Liz and kids Didn't get to socialize much; spent more time with Ariel, Adore, Jaevon, and baby Phoenix, who is trying to learn to pull himself up.....if we can keep A and J from 'helping' him!
     -Race Day/Mem Day:  Uncle Bill and Will I opted to not go to the race, so we met Bill and Will at the Mug-n-Bun for an hour, and had a great time!  Simon Pagenaud won in an exciting last seven lap battle between himself and Alexander Rossi.

Health:  Continued to wear the compression socks.  Saw Ortho dr on the 19th, and was recommended for a custom orthotic.  Cortizone shot was too risky in my ankle; it could rupture the Achilles' Tendon (I breathed a sigh of relief!).  Began wearing a large bandaid with gauze padding on my heel; this helped tremendously.  Found a blister to the right of my heel on 5/28, so am now wearing TWO bandaids until that blister pops or heals (Mon 6/3 it was finally gone!).  Molds of my feet were made 5/29; they should be in during the 1st week of June.  Here's hoping they help!  I also need a new pair of shoes, and Dee measured my feet:  I'm now a size 10.

Thurs:
Voices That Care-Voices That Care Nailed this one!  Just in time for 75th anniversary of D-Day!
Reason To Believe-Wilson Phillips or Rod Stewart Did well on the RS version:)
Voodoo-Godsmack B helped me out on the opening stanza; the rest went well, even with a soprano voice, and the bar cheered:)  Hopefully it was 'yay', and not 'thank god that's over!'
Black and White-3 Dog Night Mic battery went dead halfway, which was a good thing.  Too low.
Voulez-Vous-ABBA Nailed it:)
Barbie Girl-Aqua Did well:)
U and Ur Hand-Pink Did well!
