Progress Report: Week 46

I can't believe there is basically only one month left!  There are definitely a few of these that I can knock off in that time if I put my mind to it!

1. Get passport & travel to Canada - No Progress

2. Take a dance class (not ballet) - COMPLETED

3.  Find a new doctor - No Progress

4.  Make a short film - No Progress
I have a really simple idea for this, but it just requires to me to get my hands on a camera, find some peace and quiet, and do it!

5.  Make an anthology of my Grandma's poems & writings - PROGRESS
I written up a compilation of all the poems that I've got and circulated it to a few other people for feedback regarding the order, and to check for typos, which turned out to be really important because there were many more mistakes than I expected!  Now I need to get back to their feedback to see what I think.

6.  Read 5 of these intellectual/feminist books: The Second Sex, Lean In, To the Lighthouse, The Beauty Myth, Reverence to Rape, Sister Outsider, How to Be a Woman, Americanah - TINY PROGRESS
I haven't made progress on To the Lighthouse, but I started listening to the Feminist Mystique on audiobook which I think should count towards this goal even though it's not one of the books.

7.  Learn to do a Tarot reading - PROGRESS
I still am very new to all of this, but I've started trying to do a few readings for myself.  I am still very unfamiliar with the means of the cards and have to use a reference book but it's progress.  I have started trying to incorporate the minor arcana, whereas previously I've only been using the major arcana.
