I got the inspiration initially from here but my SIL has had one for the past two years (I think) & hers is here.
Anyway...here it goes...this is my list. Some are important, and some are just things I really want to get done, but have been putting off, and some...well, are just for fun!
1. Complete the Adobe Photoshop CS5 Classroom in a Book from cover to cover
2. Paint and sell an artwork
3. Strive to learn more about 'clean' eating
4. Get to my goal weight of 60 kilos
5. Run 10 k in 45 minutes (apparently a very very fit runner who often runs 55 k...told me this is pretty hard...we'll see how I go!!)
6. Make 10 softies (soft toys) for gifts for my little and big friends.
7. Redecorate my daughters' room
8. Replicate a Nina Proudman outfit (if you don't know who that is, my heart grieves for you ;)
9. Raise money for a charity*
10. Go to a bikram yoga class
11. Make unique baby journals for my girls
12. Write a (very overdue) letter to my overseas friend (preferably before her birthday in October...)
13. Repaint my childhood rocking horse for my girls
14. Regularly take time (weekly) for a home day spa :)
15. Clean out my "Monica closet" aka friends character; its our laundry toilet filled with STUFF that we don't need! And it haunts me to know that it is such wasted space!
16. Read the Tatiana & Alexander Trilogy by Paullina Simons...it looked intriguing
17. Grow veggies and herbs again (& tend to the existing ones) and get Isabelle to help me.
18. Illustrate a portrait.
19. Make a maxi skirt from scratch
20. Sew three little dresses!
21. Make 40 Christmas cards by November
22. Enrol my 3 year old in pre-school
23. Listen. REALLY take time to shut up and listen to people...this one is going to be tough for me...I love to interrupt.
24. Make time in my day for my devotion (even if it is only 10 minutes)
25. Teach Isabelle to write her full name and age by herself
26. Read to my daughters daily.
and last but not least...
27. Get my P's and drive our awesome new car. This is the main one...if I get nothing else on my list done...I hope I achieve just this one.)
I feel kind of vulnerable and exposed by putting out this list...even though its simple...but now I'm accountable.
*will have to research more how to do this...I know its a bit vague and I'm not sure where the money will go yet, but I guess thats the excitement of it!
Have you ever completed a list like this? I'm definitely a list girl...I can't even get through the day without one!
