May Goals

Thank you all for the comments on my guitar playing.  I have that sort of pride/embarrassed feeling about posting them.  I am still very much a beginner and I note every mistake in these videos.  Yet, I look at how far I have come in the last couple of years with it.  Then there is [...]

April Wrap Up!

Quickie post! Another month come and gone.  Forward into spring now – woo hoo!

May is going to be a busy month.

Here were my goals for April:

1. 250 miles on the bike.  I didn’t quite make it.  Weather didn’t cooperate as fully as I would have liked, but I did get 170 miles in.

[...]

April Goals

Brand new first full month of spring and it still feels like winter around here.  Strong winds and spitting snow.  I thought it was supposed to be April showers??  Hello?

At least a hot breakfast warmed me up. New to me product that I found:

It’s a nice alternative to other hot cereals.  It [...]

Weekend Ride and March Wrap Up!

50 degrees means bike riding!  I only needed a few layers today.     I dare anyone not to notice me in these colors!

I wanted to get in a 20 mile ride today.  Need to ramp up mileage fast if I am going to get in 2500 this year.    The gravel part [...]

March Goals

Spring is coming. I keep telling myself that spring is coming!

I did a bit of plant shopping and ordered a rose for my new bed extension.  I was going to go with a different one, but after reading some reviews of its performance in real gardens, I set up my search again and came [...]

February Wrap Up!

Short month and can we please move on to spring???

Here are the goals set for February and the progress I made towards them:

1. Finish the bathroom renovation.  Done! If you missed the reveal, it is here.  I would have liked to have finished it earlier in the month, but there was a delay in [...]

February Goals

Hello new month!  Now we can really think about spring coming, right? January seems like such a long and cold month with not much to do.

 

I’ve been busy, so I will just get down to the goals!

1. Finish the bathroom renovation.  Okay, this might be a bit of a softball, but I [...]

January Wrap Up

I didn’t really set any specific goals for January itself because I had set up my To Do list for the year. 

I actually did make progress on some of those goals already, though.  That’s the whole beginning of the year for you.  Everyone is really motivated, including myself!

I read 3 books this [...]

November Wrap Up!

11 months gone for 2012.  Only about 3 weeks left until Armageddon, too, and I still have a lot to do 

Billy had his big adventure at the vet’s today.  He was quite the trooper and is now back home and singing soprano.  Such a good kitty.  Officially up for adoption now.

Without further [...]

November Goals

Welcome to November – and Happy Day of the Dead! Or Days of the Dead as John pointed out, since technically it is 2 days.  Of course, every day is day of the dead until coffee time!

Don’t you love this coffee break? I asked for permission to use this photo – if you [...]
