2012

2012 in Review:

 

( Break it down... )

 

Summary: I didn’t realize how much I’d travelled til I wrote this up.  I was sick a lot too, and stressed out about my family.  But overall it wasn’t a horrible year.  And hey, the Mayans were wrong so we get to keep going!

 

 

( Resolution and Goals )

 

 2013 Resolution:   Learn one new thing

I’ve been thinking about trying to learn sign language – I’m going to look to see if there are any lessons on Youtube or something.  Also, I’ve already signed up for a class on quilting.  So this should be a pretty easy resolution to keep, a rebound from last year’s failure.

 

2013 Goals:

v  Get involved in my community: 

  Ø  Attend neighborhood meetings – they happen once a month, and I’m going to try to go to at least six.
Ø   Volunteer – it’s hard to find an opportunity that allows for sporadic volunteering (ie once a month) but I’m going to try again.  I found an organization that works toward improving child literacy among immigrant/poverty-level children so I am going to look into that.

v  Complete 3 out of the 10 following craft projects:

     Ø  Tree of Knowledge cross-stitch

     Ø  S's t-shirt quilt

     Ø  My College Sweatshirt quilt

     Ø  2007 scrapbook

     Ø  2008 scrapbook

     Ø  Nephew’s family tree label

     Ø  Tribble t-shirt

     Ø  Cat toy treat dispenser

     Ø  Framing skeleton cross-stitch

     Ø  Display for Mom’s scarf pins

v  Move craft room upstairs and organize

v  Move guest room back and hang Grandmother’s quilt and my sister’s paintings

v  Frame and hang photos in bedroom

v  Practice the drums with the aim to start taking lessons again.
