JULY 2020 GOAL UPDATE

Posting my 2020 New Years' goals was a great idea.  It forced me to focus on meeting these goals or otherwise look like a massive chump.

Not only did I keep up with my goals, but I have completed the goal of matching my 2019 spending with 2020 stock purchases for 6 companies.   In fact, I plan on breaking down my Target spending to brands of products I can match, like Unilever, Proctor & Gamble, and Johnson & Johnson.  As of July 1, I will be breaking them down more for 2021 share buys

PERSONAL PROGRESS:

1. Take a spring road trip.  Yellowstone would be ideal.  NOPE.  CAN'T WORK THAT ONE OUT.  BUT WILL GO ON A 10 DAY LONG TRIP THROUGH OREGON AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA.  MY  KID NEEDS TO SEE THE REDWOOD FOREST AND CRATER LAKE.

2. Exercise more.  KEEPING UP.  DOING WALKS, SOME BIKE RIDES, AND GOT BAKC INTO THE SWORKIT APP.

3. Drop about 20 lbs.   STILL DOWN ONLY 6.  MUST. NOT. GRAZE....

4. Drink more green tea. STILL HITTIN' IT.

5. Sell off some of my record collection.   It was a long term goal to sell eventually.  Well, I have run out of room.  I think I would rather sell than keep some of the ones I rarely listen to.  GOT 2 FOR SALE ON EBAY RIGHT NOW, BUT NO TAKERS.  COVID REALLY TANKED THE ONLINE RECORD SELLING MARKET.

6. Improve piano skills and improve guitar skills. PLANNING ON RELEASING AN AMBIENT ALBUM LATER THIS YEAR.  MORE LIKE AMBIENT MEETS PSYCHEDELIC. (THINK: RECENT WORKS BY THE FLAMING LIPS) 

7. Blog more. LOL

8. Enjoy more oysters like these.  I LOVES ME MY OYSTERS.  GOONA GET SOME FOR SURE THIS MONTH


SEE YOU SOON!
