Completed are bold. Updated with commentary :)
1. Paint a wall a color I really love
2. Get my hair cut
3. Eat a Voodoo Doughnut
We went on my birthday, and it was really busy since they were having a wedding. A wedding! At a donut shop! They didn't have the ones Jon and I really wanted, so we will be going back to get them.
4. Buy something from Etsy
My picture I love, and I got it in a frame too!
5. Read 5 non-fiction books
Potty Train your kid in one day, A room of one's own, Apartment Therapy,
6. Read a book each day to Katie
This is an average one. I think there were a few days I didn't read her one, but I usually do at least 2, so it all evens out.
7. Find a new band I love
Sam Philips. She is awesome. Look her up.
8. Do a photo shoot with someone other than a relative or friend
9. Do the Apartment Therapy 8 step home cure
I read the book, but it was a very involved process I just don't have time (or money) for now.
10. Make a piece of art to hang on our walls
11. Frame a picture Katie painted
12. Print off pictures of the girls
13. Send Christmas cards out before Christmas
14. Take the girls for a walk once a week
15. Recover dining chairs
16. Get out the advent calendar before December 1st
17. Take the girls to the coast
I'm so sad, I ALMOST did this. It was nice at the coast too.
18. Go downtown and look at the lights
19. Make a pillow cover (knit or crochet)
20. Send thank you notes for all gifts received
I did do some, which is an improvement. I am grateful, it's just so hard to buy stamps. I'm not kidding.
21. Go to a concert
22. Make bread once a month
So glad I put this on here, since it made me get out my bread machine. I haven't put it away since, and I've been making almost all my bread now. It's not as good as my mom's or Jon's mom's, but I like that I know exactly what's in it, and it's usually 1/2 wheat. And it's pretty good.
23. Learn how to make my favorite Thai food
Coconut Lime soup, check. Yellow curry, not so much. I bought yellow curry paste, and it was so gross. So I think I need to make a trip to the Asian market and get some good stuff. I guess Winco isn't good for everything.
I always try to do this, and it never happens. I just don't have that much time to myself while it's still light outside.
Well I did half, I guess that's not bad since I only had about 4 months. I'm working on this years list now!
