6 Goals (for my 26th year)

1) Read 12 books.

2) RUN a 5k. I mean, really run it this time!

I worked on this a lot last year, and I made some great progress!! I went from barely being able to keep a jogging pace for 30 seconds, to being able to run for 5 minutes. That is HUGE for me! And that was only with some sporadic training. I KNOW I can do this! And I’d like to do it in time to run a race in my college town next Spring with my old roommates! They’re runners, so I have a lot of work to do! I know I can do it!

3) Start my small business.

I’m going to get into action and start offering my services to friends, family, and anyone else that comes along the way. Of course, that includes designing packaging, products, and lots of research. I’ll come up with a measureable goal for the next year as soon as I educate myself a bit.

4) GET LASIK!

I found out I’m a candidate for the surgery, and I really want to do this. The only thing stopping me is the money. My goal is to save as much as I can by December, with the price for the surgery being $5,000. (My next task is to look into other centers in the area…)

5) Acquire a new skill.

I will focus on just ONE, and right now I’m leaning towards baking or sewing. More on that later….

6) Do more ”touristy” things in my hometown. (Goal = 4)
1 – Visited Art Museum and Historical Museum on 9/12/09
2- the zoo?
3- Science museum?
4- Winery?

  1. Oh my goodness, you should bump The Lovely Bones up to the top of your next ‘to-read’ list. It was amazing! Best book I’d read in a long time.
