My List

So, its official that I haven't accomplished anything new on my list since... I can't even remember when I accomplished the last thing that I accomplished! AAARGH!

I's is got some list accomplishing to do's!

I am not going to beat myself up for not doing everything on my list. I have had a few diversions... like having a baby. That should have been one thing on my list, then I would have been able to cross it off. But, it wasn't. Anyway, if I don't get even half the things on my list checked off by November 18, 2008 than that's OK! I will just have to start a new list and include things that are a little more attainable. Like just running a 5k and not a half marathon... What was I thinking anyway?!?!

Was I really going to run a half marathon? I guess that I thought that I'd be able to at the time, but now I am like... are you CRAZY?!?!

#52 Almost...

So, on my list I have listed as #52

Track down Yolanda (last name disclosed for obvious reasons)... she was an old roommate of mine and I haven't talked with her since right after Mike and I got married. After that she just disappeared...

Until tonight.

I did a random search for her on Google this evening and guess what popped up...? Her profile on some weird website that's for "Anglo-Indians", because that is where she's from, India. So, I signed up on the website and sent her a Private Message... lets see if she responds. If she does then I get to cross one more thing off my list, if not then, I guess I still get to cross it off, because I did find her and I did try to make contact... I guess we'll have to just wait and see what happens.

My List

So, I was just going over my list because I am going to have them all under the Post Themes "My 101 List" here on my blog... anyway, as I was going through my list I discovered that there are several things that I have indeed accomplished on there that I haven't listed such as...

#15 Stain and Seal the front door; Although I didn't actually do this one (Mike did, because I was pregnant at the time) it still counts though.

#16 Finish flannel baby blankets; Again, this one is slightly modified, because I didn't actually finish the baby blankets for the people that I had originally planned to give them to... I made a real, real cute blanket with all the flannel (that I bought for everybody else) for baby Tucy before she was born.

#28 Take Mom to lunch; We actually went to a movie and then to lunch, back in Janurary.

#47 Get a shower curtain that matches the color scheme of the house; I got a shower curtain that is white with purpley butterflies on it.

#62 Organize the kitchen cabinets and drawers; I did this about a year ago and it is getting to be messy again, I am starting to not find things again... oh well.

#95 Play Basketball; Shav got a basketball standard last year and I went over there a few times and played basketball with her, even if it was "around the world" and "horse" it still counts in my book.

My List #73

Go to the Symphony

I know that I haven't done much with my list lately, but this last Saturday I did... Mike and I went to the Symphony on Saturday night! We saw the Utah Symphony perform Dvorak's "New World" Symphony. It was incredible! I want to go again and again! I felt like my IQ was raised just a little bit by being there and listening to those movements.
I also decided that the best instrument to play in the symphony is the triangle. I would love to play the triangle. It's an instrument that you learn to play in Kidergarten but is also vital to an Orchestra. I could totally see myself up there ringing the dig-a-ling-a-ling of the triangle.

L-I-S-T.. Goooo List!

#56 ~ Shoot a Bow and Arrow...

And I have the bruises to prove it. I went to an archery range and shot the crap out of a target... but, because my arm is a little double jointed making it bow out... the string from the bow whacked the CRAP me and I now have bruises up and down my forearm. Needless to say I didn't have it in me to shoot up the styrofoam bears on the main range... but, one of my girls had my back and got a bear square in the heart... just for me.

#98

Go Camping in the Unitahs.

I did indeed cross something else off my list this weekend. I went camping in the Uintahs from Thursday until Saturday of last week. It was loads of fun, but I am glad to be back and showered.

#59

Give a Talk in Church

I am not sure why I put this on my list. Probably because the last time I spoke in church, I set my timer for t-minus 3 minutes and left the rest of the meeting for Mike to fill.

This time, I filled a good 10-15 minutes and left Mike very little time for his talk. He told me to stretch it and I did. What pressure though, talking in Church ON EASTER!!!

Needless to say, I am glad that it is over and I can cross yet another thing off my list.

Check!

My List - Check!

My List

I started a list. Well, I actually got the idea from one of my bestest friends. She has made a list and I loved the idea so much that I copied her. It's a list of 101 things to accomplish in 1001 days. So, from this point on I am going to put up a post every time I complete one of my 101 things (all except the real personal ones, sorry). The last one I accomplished...

#3 - Watch "Gone with the Wind"

I hadn't ever seen it. I know that some of you will think.. "How on Earth did you escape my presence without ever having seen Gone with the Wind?" But, somehow I did. I must say that I adore this movie! What an amazing film! So, my advice to all of those who haven't ever seen it - See it! You won't regret it.
