Struggles, Projects, I might just go Crazy...

To be comepletely honest I've been really "walking the tightrope" with my C.A.L Project recently. My personal struggles, School Work, and family issues have all been preventing me from focusing on doing important tasks for the project. I've been behind on classwork, and I even have been a "bad blogger" and have not been up to date on all blogger posts. I think now that we are coming to the ends of the year, many more things will pop up and probably put pressue on my C.A.L situation. The balance of life and this project has been the hardest thing for me. ON A POSITIVE NOTE: The project itself is running well, the Date is set for may 20th at the Elks Lodge in Poughkeepsie at 7:30pm, and all of my resouces are in place. Opertunity to help? : Yes! If you have a little Sibling who could benefit from hearing my presentation (and also likes snacks) come out on the 20th, right now I have mostly if not only scouts who I know are coming, and I was hoping for some regular community members. Outlook on the rest of the project: Im WILL to do this ... even if it kills me!

  1. OK. Great job Bob! Like hearing about the positive notes about you project. Not sure if I can make it too your project if you need volunteers but I am glad it is going well. I have had some of the struggles with my project like you have had as well. This is because I am creating a garden for one of the Habitat for Humanity homeowners and I am always hoping that there is going to be good weather or something or too see if I even know how to plant! I try not to let these things affect me when it comes to my project. I know that doing this is hard though. Glad to hear that your project is going well even though you have had some struggles. Remember this and that helping others is what brings about positive change in a community. This is key and it is something I have learned when going through this project process. Seeing the smile on others faces is what makes you think back and see what a great job you have done. Good Luck the rest of the way!!

    1. Andrew,
      Great response! I don't usually comment on responses, but I think you bring up some great points that are not only true but encouraging. Great job buddy!

  2. Bob,
    You have really come a long way with your project. I know that you have experienced good times and bad times with your project but the fact that you didn't give up and took moments to assess your progress (or lack of) kept you on track and helped you deal with upcoming obstacles. You are very self-aware, a trait that can only help you during difficult times. Way to go buddy!
