Detangled Writers: Dani's prime cut short list

What time frame am I looking at? a year since Dani deemed it so!
What does your current schedule/life style look like? I have a 40 hours a week job. I also have a few goals that take up some free time (training for a 5k run, Internet dating *grumble* and helping out my friend with her brand new twins)
How important is writing to you currently? Important enough to want to write and to make it a daily habit. Not so important that it's at the top of my list.
Where are you as a writer? I'm coming out of retirement. As a child, teenager, and college student, I wrote. I wrote many papers, but I also wrote poetry in the margins of my theory books and took the occasional C.W. since then I've been off and on with writing nights with a few friends and attempted a couple of NaNoWriMos but nothing really has come from any of those prompts/attempts. I'm looking for a chance to really dig in and get something done with my writing.
What goals will better you as a writer? Ugh. improving grammar and spelling and being more mindful would be beneficial. I also really need to back up my work (the computer is old and is having issues multi-tasking--- or really single tasking). And it would be nice to have everything on the computer so I don't have to go through 20 note books just to find a couple of sentences I've been obsessing about.
What goals are most important to you? Finishing one of the novels and keeping up with the blog (since I have other people counting on me).

Fatty List

~~1st Impressions~~ <-- I want to focus on one novel and of the two, I like Thecla better
The Thecla Series

~~complete the word total of a NaNoWriMo in the allocated time (but I would be happy to beat my word count from the last two years/ go to an event/~~ donate to the NaNoWriMo)<-- It's important to me to donate and support causes I believe in. I don't think I can do a NaNoWriMo this year (between the blog and rough draft of a novel)
back up all writing material on flash drives (and organize)
Type up all hand written notes and stories (maybe 1 hr. a week?)
Attend 2 conference/classes about writing
~~do a publishing pitch~~
Enter a contest and/or submit short piece to a journal
~~Once polishing-- recheck out Writing Clinic and apply the practice.~~
~~write a writing guide-- focused on writer's block and continuing the story.~~
Fill up one notebook (because I have the bad habit of starting a journal and then buying a new one and writing in that one.)

~~Read and practice The Artist Journey~~
~~Regularly keep in touch with writing friends. have writing night once a week and make it a priority!~~
~~improve my spelling, grammar, and vocabulary. And be more focused when writing emails (I tend to switch out words like 'think' with 'like' and 'should' with 'show'~~)<-- not sure how to measure this to make it a real goal.
