Fishes and Kisses

Ow, quit it.

Final tally

Well, I’ve totally dropped out recently, which has sucked. But I still kept on track with some things. Here’s my final assessment of my accomplishments:

Succeeded:

  • Have my ring re-sized.
  • Get people to fill out this johari and nohari thing.
  • Tell my father I love him.
  • Give up gluten for one month. (Either do this, or take it off the list, or change it to a more useful goal.)
  • Survive my first Chicago Spring.
  • Buy a bike.Yay for Chapman!!!
  • Use del.icio.us.
  • Synchronize my 43T things and Remember the Milk tasks.
  • Challenge myself this summer!
  • Practice discardia. Do this at least one more time.
  • Get the medical care I need. Get back on antidepressants; get more help with my neck and shoulder (meds, therapy, or both).
  • Get my LCSW. Find out what this entails in Illinois.
  • Adopt 2 children. Make a short list of 3 to 5 adoption agencies that might be good matches for us.
  • Get strong. Have a plan by the end of the summer.
  • Be a better friend.
  • Volunteer

Failed/Gave up:

  • Organize my Issues of Vegetarian Times by August of 2007.
  • Create an altered book.
  • Post 100 quotes that I like for whatever reason! Get up to 60.
  • Stick to my FlyLady routines. Continue doing my morning routine most mornings. Have an evening routine and do it most evenings.
  • Read 43 books about my city. Read at least 3 more.
  • Explore 43 new places in my city. Add at least 6 more.
  • Be sexually healthy. Figure out what what will help me achieve this goal.
  • Journal
  • Learn CSS
  • Quit my job.

So, that’s 16 goals which I either accomplished outright or met my summer milestones for, and 9 which I either failed at or gave up on. That’s not bad . . . but I think I’ll be less ambitious/more realistic with the fall challenge. (Yes, let’s do a fall challenge!)

I’ll post specific things under each actual goal. Although I only accomplished a little under 2/3 of my goals, this was extremely helpful for me. It really helped me prioritize and focus, and everyone’s encouragement was really motivating. Plus, just posting the updates was great, because often I didn’t even realize how much I was accomplishing until I wrote it all down.

Yup . . . worth doing!
