Progress Report: Week 38-41

 It's getting down to the wire, and I still have a lot to accomplish.  Obviously I don't expect to get through everything in the next 1.5 months, but I'm hoping I can at least make progress on everything.

1.  Get a new job and move. No progress.
Still haven't done the PR application.  I really need to do this.  It's amazing how many things just get in the way. I have been pretty busy at work this past month.  I've also decided to stay on at my job until the end of the year, so I'm going to dial back the job searching until the late fall.

STEP 4 Do application to PR program

2.  Make my own postcards. **TINY PROGRESS**
I've started tinkering around with Photoshop, so I can probably design the cards on that.

STEP 1: identify 5 photos I would like to use on the cards
STEP 3: decide on the size of the card
STEP 4: design the template for the back of the card
STEP 5: choose a printer or buy paper to print on my own

Progress Report: Week 36-37

I feel very positive about this stuff this week.  I think it is because I made some progress on a couple things I have been avoiding, but I let a bunch of things fall to the wayside.  I could have easily done much more.

1.  Get a new job and move. No progress.
Need to stop procrastinating and do the PR program application!

STEP 4 Do application to PR program
STEP 5: Look for apartment
STEP 5 Keep job searching
STEP 6 keep thinking about what I want to be doing in the next 5 years

2.  Make my own postcards. No progress
STEP 1: identify 5 photos I would like to use on the cards
STEP 3: decide on software to use to to design my card (using Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and/or Lightroom) especially the back side
STEP 4:  Design the template for the back of the card.
