So this is the lamest of lame weekends as of late. Bored as a mofo, so after doing some reading I realized my 101 in 1001 has ended. I did not complete all 101 goals (expected), but it was still a neato list to create. I will create a new one - it will include some of the goals I did not meet the last go-around but not all (hello "read the twilight series".. no thanks.)
1
Read the Twilight Series - incomplete. I remember putting this as #1 when I created the list - hoping the hype would die down because I had zero interest in reading this. The hype has died down and now its all about much more LAME fan fiction - 50 shades of horrible writing. This one won't make it to my new list as I have found I still have no interest in reading the series. 3
Start writing daily in a journal - I've kind of slacked on this lately but I still give myself the check mark. :)4
Organize photo collection - this is difficult with all of the digital photos - however I have moved all of my photos to an external hard drive and organized them as best I could. This appears to be an ongoing process......5
Go whitewater rafting - incomplete. Would still TOTALLY do this!6
Lose 5lbs :)7
Lose 10lbs :D8
lose 15lbs oh yeah! :D9
"Unplug" for a whole weekend - no BlackBerry, no Internet, no TV, no computer - this has been a successful event for many weekends! Highly reccomend, and highly enjoyable!11
Make a jar of 1000 origami mini stars - incomplete. Zero desire to complete this. I bought some origami a couple years back but I've moved onto other crafty projects I have more interest in.12
Read 100 books - with my up and down reading phases I knew this would be a challenge. When I started this, I hadn't actually been keeping track of my reads but I can admit to not reaching 100. I have come to realize I read much more on my PlayBook than a "real" book. Hands-Down. Ebooks all the way!13
Take a pole dancing class - While I did take a "flirty fit" class with my ex-sis in law, I never did go to a pole dancing class. 14
Get another tattoo - Still looking for a new one. There's way too much mainstream unoriginal shizz going around all over pinterest these days. Mine will come soon enough, however. :)15
Buy a house - bought it, lived in it for 2 days, left. That's a story. LOL16
Milk a cow - this is completely on my bucket list and everyone thinks I'm bananers but I will milk a cow! I will I will!17
Learn how to speak basic spanish - So frustrating that I haven't completed this. I'd really like to take a class and learn some Basic Spanish. 18
Run a 10K race - Maybe one day. Running isn't very enjoyable to me. :)19
Drink only water for 2 weeks - I've probably come close to this, but I don't think I passed the 14 day mark. 20
Go to New york City - This is definitely on the must-do list! I will make it some day. :)21
Drive around the Cabot Trail - Another goal easily accomplished but I just haven't made my way that way. We have a goal to hit up the trail in the fall, however. 22
Go Geocaching - Almost went, just about, but almost doesn't count.24
Play Bingo - I was SO CLOSE to going to Bingo, but instead a surprise 30th birthday party was held for me. I'll take it!25
Go to Mexico - Oh Mexico, you hold a special, special place in my heart. Muy bueno! Went in Oct, 201126
Sell things on eBay - overrated & a lot of work. Haha27
Try acupuncture - my bff girlie will be practicing acupuncture on me some day! Worry not, she's certified! Haha28
Try 5 new restaurants - So many to list. We go out to eat way too much!29
Go to a concert - The Trews & Bryan Adams - wha whaa!!! LOL 30
Ask for someone's advice... and take it - Difficult, but accomplished. 31
Do 100 sit-ups a day for a month - Surprised I didn't meet this as I enjoy sit ups. 33
Finish the 1st Outlander book - I will finish this book. I will give it a true attempt. I owe it to the cottage ladies! Haha!34
Run a 5K race - Hungover, 35C outside, on my birthday no less. 35
Attend the midnight premiere of a movie - This will not likely be on the 2nd list. Midnight premieres are usually movies with all of the hype I can't stand behind.37
Create a website for the cake business - no longer in the business but s'all good!38
Take a photography class - Never got around to it. 39
Bake an apple pie from scratch - Another one I'm surprised I didn't do. I LOVE pie! Frig, I used to make hobby cakes and I REALLY don't like cake. I LOVE pie and.... I've-never-made-a-pie. What is wrong with me?!40
Pay off my credit cards - success! :D42
Get contact lenses - got 'em. Never wore 'em. 45
Learn 50 ASL signs - I will do this. 46
Go fishing - I blame this on the boyfriend. He's been slacking. 47
Paint and display 3 canvas paintings - so close! Completed 2 (Psychadelic flowers & Starry Night). Started 3rd but it's been put on the backburner.48
Learn how to knit - Still another case of the "focusing on other crafty projects" 49
Watch all seasons of Dexter - Enjoyable...but not as much as I thought it would be. Now I've invested the time so I will continue.51
Go up the CN Tower - Had no reason to go to Toronto, but if I do, I will make it up. Has been so many years!52
Go to the hot springs - possibly this month. Possibly. Man I miss Alberta!53
Learn to make sushi - overrated. 54
Attend a spin class - Likely will start soon. Too many people keep chapping out, so I'll do it when I return from vacation.55
Host a turkey dinner - I make a MEAN Turkey. Let me tell you! Free Range Organic million dolla dolla turkey no less! 56
Host a board game night - This used to be something I did. The crowd was ALL wrong. Left a bad taste in my mouth.58
Slow dance - my favorite was the country wedding! Nothing like slow dancing to country music! <359
Buy myself something from Tiffany's - I was selfless and made that purchase for someone else. Wouldn't change a thing. 60
Complete 3 Jigsaw puzzles - I absolutely love puzzles but man they take up space, and having a curious kitty nearby is not condusive to 100% completion. 61
Organize my closet - Thanks to some more-patient-than-me friends!62
Buy a new coffee table - Acquired a new one. Doesn't count.63
Go to the gym 3x a week - yip yip! loving it!65
Go to Oaklawn zoo - I GOT TO KISS A BLACKBEAR!!!66
Go horsebackriding - Oh horses bring me way back to my childhood. Some of the best memories with my daddio. A few years back some girlies took me out on my birthday! 67
Take a trip to Las Vegas - upcoming. For reals.68
Play a game of 18 hole golf - I was honest because driving the golf cart surely doesn't count. :)69
No swearing for a day - Not easy.70
Read 6 Biographies - I came close but came to realize that Biographies are kind of unenjoyable. 71
Put change in someone's expired parking meter - Rately go downtown!72
Hang out at the library - got a library card (step 1). Lost my library card (minus step 1).73
Order a fish dish at a restaurant (not including sushi or salmon) - Beer Battered Haddock. Strangely "ok" but not something I would see myself doing routinely.75
Make pho - Still going to be on the list! 76
Take lunch to work everyday for 2 weeks - big score for me!77
Make homemade bread - overrated. A lot of work for an instant of devouring it.79
Go skydiving - I will go one day. 80
Do 20 "real" pushups consecutively - I hate pushups. Hate! 83
Dye my hair a different color - blondie!84
Get a facial - tentative plans, fell through. It's a shame!87
Go wine tasting - was SO close, but too hungover. Sorry Jost!94
Visit the Rocky Mountains - prolly this month. Crazy poor timing. LOL97
Compose a new list of 101 things to do in 1001 days - missed my deadline it seems!98
For every task I do not complete donate $1 to charity - $62 will be donated to a charity I choose shortly!
