Day of my real job instead of my preferred job

Yesterday, I got 4k added to "Rough Seas". That puts me further along which feels very good.
Today is "mom" day. Groceries, laundry and mediating between my two children. They're fighting right now. *Sigh*. Some days are like that. I'm not complaining. I get more breaks than some moms so I'm lucky.
I have a goal to finish "Rough Seas" before the Golden Pen Contest deadline, August 12th. That means about 30-40K in less than a month. I would like to get this one finished anyway and start subbing it for agents.
Lots of my author friends are going to the RWA National Conference in Atlanta. I hope they all have a blast. Those of you still here with the rest of us too poor, too busy or too far away to go, Lucy Monroe is having a "blog party" at http://lucymonroeblog.blogspot.com . Prizes to win, fun to be had. Give it a try.
And here's the Question of the Day (I know you were waiting for it). Are your goals realistic? Do you underestimate or overestimate your time, ability, discipline? How do you feel when you accomplish those goals?
