101 in 1001 Goals: April Progress Report!
Written by Sara on May 10, 2010 – 9:00 am -So, as a reminder, here are the goals that I wanted to accomplish in April, and how I did:
- Send my brother Brian at least one care package at college. [OOPS. Um, yeah, didn't do this one. This one's going on the list for the fall semester!]
- Take a trip with my best gal pals. [Well, one of my best gal pals! Jordan's sister Larissa and I trekked up to Minneapolis for a weekend, and had A BLAST shopping!]
- Send flowers randomly to someone I care about. [Check! Sent flowers to my lovely maid of honor and cousin, Kristen, to celebrate her getting her dream job!]
- Buy a pair of wellies. [Yeah, I wish...I just can't justify the spending right now!]
So, 2 out of 4 isn’t bad…right?
On the brighter side, here’s goals that I accomplished without even trying:
- Participate in premarital counseling. [J and I started this in April; read more about our premarital counseling here!]
- Write and mail at least 10 handwritten letters. [Sent 3 more handwritten letters in April, this time to 2 of my Aunts and 1 of Jordan's Aunts!]
- Go on a hike. [I took Wyatt the dog hiking in a recreational area near our house on a supremely lovely day; we had fun!]
- Have a marathon movie-watching session of all of the “Lord of the Rings” series with Jordan. [We watched the LOTR series while designing our wedding ceremony programs!]
- Try at least one new wine every month for one year. [In April, I tried a Malbec! Yummy.]
Here are my goals for May:
- Make or bake at least one Rachael Ray recipe.
- Try beets…again.
- Learn how to drive a stick shift/manual vehicle.
- Go bowling…and actually try to bowl well.
Be sure to tune in again in June to see how I did!
