Guess who turns 32 this year?! This gal! One of my new goals is to get back to writing...not necessarily blogging, but it seemed as though this would be a good, low stakes, place to start. Also...what better way to begin than to "cheat" off of a previous post and see how I faired on my goals from two years ago? I'm going to do my best to guess if I've accomplished that goal since I set it (ignoring the initial timeline of a year).
- Read 200 books- I know that I came close-ish last year to this one, but am definitely not on track this year. For some reason, once the pandemic happened, all of my motivation to read evaporated...something I never would have anticipated. I had so many friends who read more and loved all of the extra time, but my brain just said "nope."
- Visit a new state- I did this one! Last year (so it was outside of the original timeline), I went to Tennessee TWICE!
- Lose some weight, specifically weigh less than 160 at some point this year- I'm getting to the age where I'm less concerned with what I weigh than being healthy. I don't think I ever dropped to 160, but I felt better about my body and happier with it and all it's capable of.
- Blog at least twice monthly- Ha ha ha ha.
- Write a new short story- Nope (Exact same response as the original post)
- Get my passport- I did this!!! Mostly because we were planning an amazing trip, but que sera, sera.
- Learn to crochet- Still no...this definitely won't be a priority on the new list.
- Take an exercise class- This past year I actually took quite a few exercise classes! I tried Spin (and still hated it) and I did Hot Yoga (and loved it!)
- Put up trim in dining room- I don't even know if I know where the trim is anymore...
- Paint bedroom- I did this! Not even sure when it was accomplished, but it did get done!
- Paint stairs- I did this! I need to do a few more coats, but I would still count this as a success.
- Clean garage out enough so one car can park in it- After I made this a goal, I think the garage got more full....
- Visit a winery- Jenna got married at a winery last year!
- Read four religious books- I don't think I've even finished one in the two-ish years since this list was created.
- Read four education books (not including grad school books)- I know for sure that I do this every year!
- Visit Sara and Merrick (and Rob)- We did this! And we even went on vacation with them last year!
- Visit Shannon and Jared- I did this solo when I was in Bizzo for a teacher thing :)
- Go to a concert- For sure Mike and I have knocked this one out of the park...we go to more stuff than I would have anticipated.
- Go to church 24 times- Last year, this goal definitely fell by the wayside....
- Do a no spend week- Never did or planned
- Go to a financial person and figure out savings/retirement- We did this! #adulting
- Invest in the stock market- We did this pretty recently! #adulting
- Go to a Twins game- Last year I was lucky enough to go both with friends and Mike and other friends
- Go to a play- Mike and I actually have been to quite a few plays and musicals over the last two years!
- Playmate for Crookston- THIS HAPPENED! Baby is due in September!!!
- Have an epic garage sale at parents- We had a garage sale about a week ago...at our house...and it wasn't epic, ha ha. We did get rid of nearly everything we put out though, so that's what's important!
- Try something new to Mike and me- I'm sure we did....
- Build products for TPT (list 5 new items)- I have definitely added 5 products to TPT since the original post...now I'm average $1 a month instead of $1 every 6 months, ha ha.
- Do 30 days of something- Nothing done or planned
