AFTER ACTION REVIEW
A solid middling week. There are a lot of new responsibilities at work which have led to me having less time and energy at home. Therefore getting as much done as I did is pretty good. 

Some weeding did get done, but not everything that I had originally set out to do. I've come to terms with this. I just don't like weeding that much and I really don't like being outside when it's as hot as it has been. Therefore, I'm done with it for at least the next two moths. It might come around again in round 4. 

Other than that I've been thinking a bit about how I want to change my goals to align with what I really want for the next round. I'm not quite finalized on things, but it'll be a bit changed up from what's currently on here. I think I'll be changing the weekly schedule around a bit as well. 


MINIGOALS
While I'll be taking the next week 'off' of my weekly goals (With my main focus being setting up next round's goals.) I'd still like to close out a couple open items so that they don't roll over:
Masterclass
Basement project
Finances within budget
Scheduling blog posts

AFTER ACTION REVIEW
Overall a good week with a lot done at the start and then a more relaxing weekend. I'd like to get back to two check in posts a week starting next round, with progress on both halves of the week. I understand why that didn't happen this round and I'm happy that I gave myself the space I needed to deal with reality as it is. 

I did actually do one of the beading projects that I took off of the list from last round while watching some youtube videos and otherwise relaxing. Furthermore I made significant progress on the major remaining basement project. 

Minigoals wise I did fix the Masterclass login and started to listen again. I did ask for help with the basement project which is why I made progress. I wrote the draft of the short story, edited, and submitted it. (I really enjoyed it, and it was nice to write again!) I didn't schedule blog posts. I did record six podcast episodes. I weeded two of the major area's that need weeding and was very happy to be inside during the rest of the heatwave.

MINIGOALS
Weed three remaining area's of the yard
Finish basement project
Finish masterclass
Finish blog posts
Record some more of the podcast 
Record some more of the audiobook

AFTER ACTION REVIEW
This week wasn't as focused as I would have preferred, and thus less got done than I was hoping. Still I know that I was still recovering from last week and needed the extra time for gaming, reading, and generally having less stuff on my plate.

To that regard I took off the sewing/beading projects, with the intention of doing those next round. I did some more reading. Not sure I'll do much more with helping local friends since I still don't want to visit others if I can help it. I'll still keep it here because it's something I'd like to be mindful of and strive towards. 

Yard tending got a big boost/catchup yesterday, when the weather was my idea of perfect (70 exactly and slightly cloudy) so I was outside for a good chunk of the day. There are five big area's that I'd like to get to in the yard to do at least one set of massive weeding in each, then I'll consider the massive yard tending goal done, and will upkeep when reasonably possible. Considering how hot this year has been already it might be a while before I get out there a lot again,  and that's ok. 


MINIGOALS
I think these need to be a bit more focused on next steps towards getting my goals finished by the end of the month, therefore these are the goals.
Fix login for Masterclass
Ask for help with basement project
Write draft of short story
Schedule blog posts
Record three podcast episodes
Weed two of the major areas that need weeding

AFTER ACTION REVIEW
It was a heck of a week for both reasons in the outside world and at work. I think you can see that from all the red on the chart. I focused on what was most important and I think did the best that I could do all things considered. Normally I would post later in the day in hopes of getting more done, but instead I'm going to forgive myself for everything that didn't get done this week and refocus on what needs to get done, and any ways that I'll be able to help prepare for this upcoming week.

And actually now that I'm reviewing this I did finish reading two books and checked my finances for the week. Not to mention doubling my activism activities! There was more that I got done than I realized!
