WWRW—Be also proud of what language you didn't learn and other Pandemica* you planned to do but didn't

 *Spare-time accomplishments during the Pandemic

One of the great prompts to come out of Wednesday Writers today was "Things I meant to do during the pandemic, but didn't."  We ran out of time to write it, though I can't wait to write it and see what happens!

I might just discover it's ok that I didn't:

Learn German

Start Learning German

Call everyone I know to check in

Write everyone I know to check in (but does this count?)

Follow through on teaching my son to juggle 

Paint a mural in the group room

(Yet) Clear my table in the group room

Watch Spanish soap operas in Spanish

Blog everyday 

Write back

Call back

That damn closet upstairs

Finish painting the upstairs walls

Give up sugar

Make hand-made cards

Submit writing

Start another writing group

Memorize the Hanuman Chalisa 

Om every day

Learn valuable new skills by choice (not by necessity)

Attempt fixing the upstairs burner on the stove

Caulk (man, why does that very word incite so much ire?)

Develop a webinar
