Being accountable to myself.

 OK, all previous plans and promises are scrapped. Here's the new status:

• start each day by taking care of the dog(s);
• follow up with some form of exercise for myself every other day (don't let more than two days go by without doing this);
• clean on non-exercise days;
  
• spend at least 2 hours working on developing my designs, dyeing yarn, or developing my online presence;
• break the "work" (HA!) with another dog walk;
• then the fun knitting/spinning/crocheting happens.

Obvious exception: Sock Madness or other knitting on a deadline overrides all other knitting, but nothing gets in the way of dogs or exercise.

I got this.
