Goals

I wish that I could say I had all my goals for 2009 made up ahead of time but I'm just now getting around to them. I was going to make a new list but instead I decided to update and revise the one that i had. So, here it is my updated list of 101 things to do in 1001 days. I changed some of them because either they are impossible to accomplish or my needs have changed. I hope I can get most of these done this year!

You've accomplished so many already! I think that's awesome that you take your goals seriously, I tend to forget mine and then remember later.....

Maria Nissen said...

I've been thinking about this, too. Great list. I can help you with some of your goals. Let's go hike Camelback Mountain before you move! AND attend the NILMDTS workshop. That will help with two of your goals. :-)

P.S. I LOVE Veggie Tales. I even have their songs on my shuffle. I finished out my run this a.m. with the Cheeseburger song! They are a hidden treasure.

Looks great hunny you're so awesome! I'm pretty sure I could find a few more things for you to add to your list...

You have done so good with that list. I don't even remember what I wrote on mine! Ha. Anyways, so I am really glad to hear that you liked that book by Glen Beck. I have been wanting to reading but I thought it sounded kind of corny, but apparently I was wrong. So thanks, I am going to start it as soon as I finish my other million books I'm in the middle of!
