New Month's Resolution for June
With all of the commotion of moving, I sort of lost sight of my 31 New Things project and my New Month's Resolutions. In April, I devoted myself to oral hygiene. I didn't do much of anything consistently in May. What a waste. June, though almost closed, has been a month of belly dancing! I'm progressing nicely and know the difference between a hip shimmy, a twisty shimmy and a straight-leg shimmy. The belly dance lessons will continue on through August (and beyond), but I wanted to make it a priority at the outset so I won't be tempted to skip class.
There has been little progress on setting up the apartment. My kitchen is still mostly in boxes, with the exception of the essentials (plates, silverware, glasses, a skillet and a blender). I spent far too many hours shopping for new household things yesterday evening. I need to keep reminding myself that I want Scandinavian sparseness and a zen home. You can't buy that at Target. I'm feeling the need for another Not Buying It project!
Getting to Know All About You: What have you learned this week?
Comments
I have learned that a summer cold is much worse than a winter one. I have also learned that colds always have a way of appearing at the most inconvenient times, like when I have to sing for a wedding or a funeral. Sigh. Please pass the tissues...

I have learned that my desire to have nothing to do with my dad's family is well-justified.

Yikes! Both of those lessons are difficult and unpleasant. At least summer colds are fleeting; family, though, you're stuck with. But, by learning to avoid the trigger (germs/your dad's family), maybe you both can be healthier and happier.
