Agree with you. I’ve committed to phonebanking once a week leading up to the election and donating money in regular intervals to swing Senate races. I don’t want to look back at this time and tell my children that I didn’t do everything in my power to stop Trump’s reelection.

Thanks Kristin. I love that look-back feeling you described. Marrying 2 things, nursing with the book-reading. Makes it more memorable ❤️

I read all the Anne of Green Gables books during my first maternity leave, mostly on my phone in the middle of the night, cuddling a nursing baby. I’d never read them when young and now the memory of those books and that time fills me with warm fuzzy feelings (I’ve conveniently forgotten that I was doing this instead of sleeping, ha!) It was so nice to accomplish something that I’d meant to do for many years! The Ken Follet trilogy will be a great goal! I really enjoyed the first one (read it with bookclub) but have been intimidated to read the rest!

@Arc – I guess that is a silver lining of not traveling! More time to make the scrapbooks.

Any personal goals pale in comparison for me given what’s at stake.

This year has been such a blur. My plans are to finish a digital scrapbook for last year’s China trip (what a great time to catch up on my travel scrapbooking with no other trips piling up!) and get our living room “finished” as far as home decor, hanging up pictures, etc. I had a long list of other items but i’m thinking those aren’t going to happen and maybe focusing on these two to completion is a better plan 😀

This in early December. Trying to plan Christmas for the 3 brothers, leave work gracefully (also working til the schedule C) and hope to enjoy the holidays. And that Elf!!! Still need our handyman to finish the nursery. A few things to get done but very excited (and thankful) for this 4th quarter.
Hoping to finish a Ken Follet trilogy during this leave. Need something other than Facebook to visit during the late hours and few quiet moments. Also, I always read a good business leadership book right before I go back to get my work-mind back into gear.
