in All Encompassing Trip
Here's my idea:
Post what you'd like to accomplish in this new year. And next Dec.31, we can look back and see what all we have accomplished in this year. Sound good?

Short term goal: fix transmission in car.
Mid-term goal: start school
Long term goal: get my own apartment.

    @RogueStoner we love you very much sweetie. I know it seems trite to say, but this will all pass, and work itself out. You guys need to concentrate on you guys, and how you can mend that which seems torn apart right now. Just know we are all here pulling for you.. even PJF.. ^^^ ( :shock: )

    I did not used to be this way. I'm the listener lmao. I'm the one word type answer. I do so much talking at work I'm so burnt out when I get home. I a lot get irritated when people do want to chat lol! Don't ask me to make plans with you after work :lol: ask me in the morning while I'm still in a good mood. Ha. Sorry I got side tracked. Anyways I picked up this bad habit from a person I'm not friends with anymore and absolutely hated it when she did it to me and now I'm doing it. I don't all the time but I have have grown so unbelievably impatient and lose concentration and try to hurry people along.

    So I'm working on this.
    Oh please let it rain today.

    -be more organized, I bought planner pages and started okay...then I forgot. I finished making my planner pages for this year.
    -workout, need to lose weight
    -go to 100 shows/concerts in a year, my friend did it last year, so I know it's possible
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Climb as much as I can. Over the past six weeks I've been able to add a second climbing night per week, so now I'm at a grand total of two. I'd like to add a third.

    As I'm watching the last 30 or so of Shawshank, "get busy living, or get busy dying".

    I so love this film, every bit of it.

    PS - love to the Crusher and her crushability ;)

    Cook 52 meals to expand my skills and be more comfortable in the kitchen.
    Attend 52 "events" to be around more people. Events could be knitting groups, author readings, book club, running races, museum events.
    Run 10 miles non-stop, or run 1,000 miles. I had similar running goals last year, but I'm trying again.
