Here is my list for 2021
- Status: Complete our front yard landscaping. This is an absolute must since it’s carried over from last year.
- Status: Lose 5 pounds. I lowered this, but since I ended the year up instead of down, I am going to lose 5 pounds from my beginning weight of 2020, not 2021.
- Status: Ancestry: Type up the list I already have started on my mom’s mother’s side. Spend time contacting at least 2 cousins. I have reduced this goal to a more doable goal.
- Progress: I have finished 8 books. I am on track to make this one. Read 45 books.
- Status: Ride my bike. This can be a challenge because of my balance issues that seem like they will be permanent.
- Status: Visit three states that I have not visited before. This was a great goal last year and we did it, despite Covid shutdowns. I’ve already picked the states, so I am ready to start planning.
- Progress: I’m doing much better than last year. I have three baby quilts cut out already. Complete 3 quilts. Adult or baby. I might get working on a quilt for my son-in-law and one for my daughter-in-law.
- Progress: I’m not as far as I should be, yet I have walked 110 miles. Walk 1000 miles. I have attempted this for 3 years and never reached it. This year it is in writing so I hope I will complete it at last.
In February, I only made progress on three of my eight items. They are the same items as last month. And that progress is not as much as it should be if I’m spreading this out evenly. But I am further than I was at this time last year. Of course, my weight has once again gone up. Too much stress in my life right now is what I blame it on. But it’s really my fault no matter what I blame it on. I’m the one that buys the cookies at the grocery store. And I tend to eat more when I am visiting people or have company over. I currently have about 1/2 of a Tuxedo cake from Costco in my refrigerator. It is leftover from a combined birthday party for my two oldest grandchildren and myself this past weekend. Not good, since I may be the only one eating it.
