A 2012 list

I waste a lot of time on the computer - especially Facebook. I could be more productive, but at the same time, I really don't mind all the time I waste either. :) Life is way too busy and fast so a lot of downtime for myself is a good thing.

Anyway, so to add to time on the computer, I thought I'd make this time productive by both keeping up with my soaps online and writing out my 2012 to-do list.

I'm a list-maker. I prefer to do it the old way too: on paper. And I'm making it public as a way to keep myself accountable. Not that I'll even get it all done - since the last yearly to-do list didn't get completed until a year later. :) But eventually it did get done, so I'm not beating myself up about it. I'll add more on as I remember fears I need to overcome or things I've always wanted to do or hadn't thought to do .. or need to do.




  • Find a new place to go hiking.

  • Put my head completely under water at least 5 times.

  • Take a sewing class ... and make something Toccoa can actually wear.

  • Pay off my student loans off before summer.

  • Go on a weeklong vegeterian meal plan at least 4 times during the year.
