I'm finally ready to sit down and evaluate my summer. If you remember, this was my list.
1. Do some honest camping
2. Swim in the ocean
2. Swim in the ocean
3. Pick berries, lots of them
4. Paint (walls and pictures)
5. Bake non-stop
6. Restore at lease one piece of furniture
7. Ride a bike
8. Take a day off (crazy, I know)
9. Read at least five books.
10. Sew something, anything
11. Take a road trip
12. Have our annual end-of summer bash
13. Picnic with friends
14. Start journaling again.
15. Purge the closet
16. Be on a boat, any boat.
17. Find a new favorite restaurant
18. Learn more about taking pictures
19. Jam (with fruits)
20. Set up office space

20. Set up office space
So 10 out of 20 things were accomplished. I'd say that's pretty good for someone who's rather crummy at accomplishing things in a timely manner. I'll be sharing my office space soon, which has actually been really fun putting together. I'm sad to say that I didn't go camping once (though we talked about it a lot) and although I got my toes into the ocean, I wasn't brave enough to jump in. Oh well. Next year perhaps. I stated reading a few books, but haven't finished any and while I've eaten so much good food lately, I don't think I found a new favorite place. All in all, I'd say this was a successful summer, regardless of the things I did or didn't get a chance to do.
Good job accomplishing your goals!! That must feel awesome!
ReplyDeleteI think half is a great percentage! Especially when it includes taking a day off and being on a boat =)
ReplyDeletepicking berries was something i had really wanted to do this summer but never got around to it :(
ReplyDeletelists are great though, good job :)
While you were on the boat, did you exclaim in a loud, celebratory tone that you are "on a boat?"
ReplyDeleteyes andrey, I'm fairly certain I did proclaim that I was on a boat.
ReplyDeleteI've decided that lists are only useful to me half the time. Usually, they end up making me feel anxious, especially when I set out such lofty goals for myself in a short period of time. I'd say you did pretty damn well!
