good mornin’ and happy Caturday! ?

Please tell that me your to-do list is mercifully short today. It’s Saturday, after all. You deserve a day of rest!

As for choosing to do it for eight weeks — where did I get that number? Well, I started this thing back in January where I try to focus on one personal project at a time for eight weeks. In January, I decided to eat healthy for eight weeks, and I did it! So that’s the rationale.
Sure, I fell off the wagon a few times and had, like, a cupcake or a bite of ice cream, but I managed to meet my goal.
Doing the eight-week-blocks thing just seem to make big projects easier for me to handle.
