Goals for 2011

I always want to do things...i have a long list of things i would like to do, but they arent written down anywhere, no one holds me accountable to accomplish them because i simply store them in my brain...and it is becoming less than reliable, and i have a hard time keeping track of things...so i am going to list them here, and i can refer back to this post and show my progress throughout the year. The list started at 12 things, one for each month, and then it quickly become 15, then 20 so there is really no special number of things i want to do, just want to cross each off my list! :)

Wow,you are inspiring! I read the Lion, Witch and Wardrobe series a couple years ago as a new year's resolution and it was the best! You'll see a TON of symbolism in it all...stuff I never would have picked up on as a kid. Good luck with all of those!
