It's been a while since I have updated the progress of my list. It's always in my mind, but I guess I get talking about other things. My mind has never been able to section off areas, so it seems that all of these projects mingle together.
So far I have completed four items on the list, and have been reading some of my "great works of literature."
When I told my National Honor Society group that I have never caught a fish, they wanted to plan a fishing trip as one of their summer social activities. That would be quite a way to remember the task!
I am going to be meeting with my friend Becca to work on decorating the cake, so that project will be complete by May.
I have made tremendous progress in learning to play a variety of drum beats (though elementary). I have met my goal, but continue to practice. I want to get better, and it's FUN!!!
I need to call and book my reservation for the hot air balloon. A gift certificate has been reserved in my name. :-)
Road trip will be taking place at the end of May/beginning of June. I am not sure about my path yet, but it will be nice and free... Just the way a road trip needs to be!
I need to figure out a way to learn to better create a website. I know there are manuals and such, but I am hoping to find someone that can give me some guidance. For all of my writing information, I'd like to have a central site. Besides, all of the fan mail is just getting jumbled right now... :-) There needs to be a clear process to address this...
I decided I am going to eat vegetarian in the summer, when produce is in abundance in the area, and I will have time to plan some exciting meals.
I am working on how I am going to raise $1,000 for charity. I'd like to come up with something creative and memorable, so I am going to keep thinking hard on this...
Fly first-class? I wish I had an airline hookup... I am taking a trip to Seattle probably this summer... I did think of amending the flying first-class to renting an awesome car for the road trip (thinking convertible). Same cost would be there, and I could benefit from having: a)dependable transportation on my trip, b) the opportunity to let the wind blow through my hair with my sunglasses on...
Then there's the running goal... If you read my post from earlier today, you will know that I am a bit down about it. I am not sure what I will be able to do in the next seven months. I wonder if I should downscale it to a 5K? Or keep the goal and agree to walk part of it? I want to meet my goals and dreams, but I also don't want to cause myself any injury. There has to be a balance, and I need to know some limits. I sound so logical about this, but inside I am a real mess on this goal...
And the bottle of wine? That will be saved for the night of my birthday! Unless someone is dying to take me out for a drink before...
Here's the list, to remind everyone why I am even on here:
