(Almost) each week in 2012, I’ll post an Activity of the Week. They won’t be huge things, just something to move you in a different direction or give you a new perspective or shake things up in some way.

  Here’s the Activity for Week 26: Make progress on an outstanding project. It can be anything: a home repair, a craft project, a cleaning project, a stack of magazines. Just make some headway on something you've "been meaning to get to."

Accountability: I have fallen way behind because of work and travel. I still need to get batteries for my radio and to read an unfamiliar newspaper and to visit a farmstand.
