Last Day 2016
Ok, this is the last day of 2016 and the final meeting of that year of Kath’s Brain. So let’s settle down and figure out what we are going to do next year….Yes?
I thought there was going to be cake.
No, just coffee. It’s too early for cake.
OK, how about donuts?
We don’t have donuts just coffee.
Bagels?
NO BAGELS! No toast, no muffins, no baked goods of any kind.
OK, ok you don’t have to be such a grouch about it.
As I was saying, we need to figure out this next year so let’s start with suggestions from the floor. You.
Can we just take a year off? Ya know take a year long nap or something?
No we cannot.
Oooo! Ooo! I know let’s start a very big project that is really cool and has lots of small parts to make and then spend just enough time planning it that we have to rush to get the thing done.
We did that last year and the year before. I would like to propose we do something new this year.
Web site?
OK can we drop the web site idea? It’s been on the list for about 20 years now.
But people keep asking us if we have a website.
* sigh * OK website is moving from the 2016 list to the 2017 list along with making new business cards. Next.
Finish the novel or finished any novel or short story, just finish a writing project.
That one is at the top of the list for 2017 and we are well on our way to getting that one done.
A cheer is heard through out the skull.
What about the gym? We still going to exercise?
Yes, and, like last year, it is a priority since that has really become our ‘me’ time and it makes us feel better. And before anyone asks, we will just deal with everyone who is trying to make their lives better too. Just have to sort of the schedule and know that in a month’s time, there will be fewer people or we will be back to the regulars.
We gonna try to write an entry a day this year? We got pretty far with it last year.
No, I am going to take that one off the table. We will write in our blog when we have something to say but will continue Crafty Tuesday because it has become its own thing.
OOOOooooo let’s go watch the new trailer for Sherlock.
NO! We are going to try to spend less time noodling around the internet this year and more time working on various projects.
How do you put that as a resolution?
I think she did. But I still wanna see the Sherlock trailer.
No trailers! The first episode will be on tomorrow night.
EeeeeeEeeeeeeeee.
OK, calm down. Remember what happened last time.
OK….(quietly in the background) eeeeeee.
So Puppets this year, what shall we do?
Finished last year’s projects first comes to mind.
OK, after that?
There is no after that. Do you know how many puppets we have parts for but no finished product?
Um, a few?
I am figuring about a years worth of work so let’s do that before going onto other things.
OK….but that’s boring! Let’s come up with 20 new projects to try to do!
NO! Get things done is the theme for 2017. Got it?
You don’t have to be so grouchy about it.
So are we in agreement? Finish previous projects including writing projects, less time wasted on the Internet, continue the Gym thing, Website and business cards.
Yep.
OK.
Well what if….never mind. I’ll bring that up at the next meeting.
We are adjourned.
Are we sure there is no cake?
I am grateful for my brain’s random ways of sorting itself out.
