Checking in: 101 in 1001 Goals Project
Written by Sara on April 5, 2010 – 9:00 am -Hi readers! Here’s what I set out to accomplish in March, and how I did:
Relationships
- Write and mail at least ten handwritten letters. [I mailed one letter (well, a card) to my pal Jessica in March.]
- Send a care package to one of my dear friends at school. [Sent a package to Jessica!]
- Talk with Jordan about changing my name, about his feelings regarding divorce, and about his feelings regarding adoption. [Talked with J about all of these things. Can't say that each talk was a good talk, but at least we discussed all of these things.]
Necessities
- Write down and store end-of-life wishes. [Done, although J sure thought it was morbid to get this email from me...]
- Get an eye exam & glasses. [DONE! And man, was my vision TERRIBLE.]
Physical Changes
- Keep a food journal every day for one month. [Done! And seriously, it was HARD. I am not really taking away anything enlightening from it, other than the fact that when I eat out, I eat WAY more than when I'm eating at home. Just a note to self.]
*I also accomplished a handful of goals without even trying!*
Relationships
- Write gift ideas for family and friends down as ideas arise, and keep this list in a safe place. [Started this list in March 2010.]
Necessities
- Get a passport. [Check - March 2010.]
Spiritual/Emotional Growth
- Investigate international adoption.[I checked out two adoption web sites, and all I can say is YES. I feel my heart pulling me in this direction. If only I could get J to sign on...]
Miscellaneous
Complete at least six creative projects per year. [With all of the wedding planning hoopla, I hit my mark already for 2010! We did our invitations, RSVP cards, rehearsal dinner invitations, Save the Date cards, a surprise for my bridesmaids, and our cake toppers, among other projects!]
Here’s what I hope to tackle in April:
- Send my brother Brian at least one care package at college.
- Take a trip with my best gal pals.
- Send flowers randomly to someone I care about.
- Buy a pair of wellies.
Happy Monday!
