- Blog at least once a week.
- No alcohol or sweets for a month. The alcohol part? That will be easy. The sweets? Lord help me.
- Find a church to attend. This must happen this year.
- Get my new website up and running. More on this to come. Hopefully soon :)
- Buy/hang curtains in my living room and bedroom.
- Take photography lessons.
- Take a Bikram yoga class.
- Travel abroad. Europe. Mexico. Canada. Wherever!
- Increase my savings account by changing my automatic funds transfer from $50 to $100 a week.
- Walk at least 10,000 steps every day for a month. I just got a Fit Bit for Christmas so I'm kind of obsessed. :)
- Call a friend I haven't talked to in awhile on the way home from work at least once a week.
- Say "I love you" more and mean it.
- Eat a paleo or low carb diet for a month. Again, this will be very difficult for a carb lover like myself.
- Read 12 books.
- Try 12 new recipes (bonus points if they aren't desserts).
- Visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. This one is kind of cheating because C and I are already planning on going there in March, but I've wanted to go forever so whatever. This one's a freebie!
- Milk a cow. Random you may say? It sounds fun...and I just really want to visit Shatto Milk Company sometime this year. I might die of happiness if I'm able to bottle feed a baby cow. Soooo stinkin' cute!
- Sing karaoke.
- Buy a house plant and keep it alive for 6 months. Let's be honest. There is no way it will live for year. Baby steps.
- Swim with manatees or dolphins.
- Go for a hot air balloon ride.
- Send snail mail to a friend or family member each month. I know I had this same idea last year, but I failed miserably, and I always love getting fun mail so it's time to return the favor.
- Buy my parents dinner.
- Have a garage sale to get rid of everything still boxed up in the basement. If I haven't used it in almost a year I really don't need to keep hanging on to it.
- Buy a piece of jewelry that signifies all I've achieved so far.
- Take a spinning class.
- Try 12 new restaurants.
- Visit at least one state I've never been to.
- Hold a snake. I didn't have enough courage to do this last year. Maybe 29 is the lucky year? We shall see.
Hopefully these are a little more achievable than last year. Happy New Year friends! Cheers to 2014!
Hello Jenny! I love your blog! You are so cute and have great recipes! I am excited to try the ooey gooey cake bars. I just wanted to make a comment on your #3 goal for this year, I guess I was just curious what church you plan on attending? And I might be bold for saying this, but if you don't already have a certain church you are attending I would suggest trying The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I know that as I attend I feel so happy and so much love.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marlayna! You MUST try the ooey gooey cake bars! They are to die for! I've actually been attending a few different Methodist churches around the area, but thanks for your suggestion! :)
