I just love it...
Last year's list can be seen HERE. I only managed to fulfil 21 of the things I set out to do but really, I don't think that effort was half bad!
I achieved the following:
- Climbed 1103 stairs in the Step up for MS challenge
- Raised $1145 dollars for the MS Society of WA
- Tried yoga and fell in love
- Visited my friend Coralie at Rainbow Farm and had family photographs taken
- Visited my Nana
- Told my Nana I loved her
- Fell in love with belly dancing
- Bought myself a bicycle
- Dyed my hair black, purple and pink
- Started using FaceTime to make video calls
- Bought new pillows (but need new ones again - they weren't so great! LOL)
- Expanded my music library a little
- Started drawing and shared my work with a couple of people
- Completed my training at Lifeline and am now a Telephone Crisis Supporter
- Started a public blog
- Consciously asserted myself
- Volunteered at the kids school a little
- Went swimming with the kids
- Got dressed up and went for drinks with the girls twice
- Tried my first green smoothie... Not as offensive as it looked!
- Got my tooth fixed
What I didn't achieve last year, I either rolled into this year's list or scrapped altogether. My theory is that some weren't getting done because they just don't light me up now.
But I love this exercise that much that I kinda went a little overboard. I have more than 100 and I categorised them so they are easier to find and mark off when I achieve them!
So... I give you... MY LIST FOR 2014!
