Another Progress Report

Here's some more tracking data on some items that I am working on:

11. Watch the complete Homicide Life on the Street Series: Season 1, Season 2, Season 3, Season 4, Season 5, Season 6, and Season 7. I just picked up Season 7 from the library but don't think I'll get that accomplished this weekend what with the move and all.

12. Catch up on Stargate Atlantis: I have to finish watching the following episodes - 5x15, 5x16, 5x17, 5x18, 5x19, and 5x20. Then I'm all caught up.

Pay off Credit Cards: Made another sad little payment this week. Hopefully followed by a MUCH larger payment after my tax refunds come back.

59. Create a control journal: This has been in the process for a while, I wish I had had this finished before the move started but I've been so distracted by my poncho and cookbook!

62. Clean out closet and dresser: Cleaned it out quiet a bit a few weekends ago, plan on finishing this pre/post move

71. Arrive at work later than 7:15am for 30 days (6/30): I'm absolutely loving this goal of mine! I might add the goal to higher than 30 days. Its nice not being at work 2 hrs before school starts! :)

72. Do absolutely NO school work on Sundays for 10 days (1/10): I plan on not doing any work this Sunday with the move and it being superbowl Sunday!!! Plus I have Monday off to do it....

86. Watch Mom’s graduation from LSSU: I'll need to change this one as my Mom isn't going to be walking in graduation anymore... my sister's prom is the same day and she doesn't want to miss sending her off.

90. Organize my recipe book: Still a WIP. Probably won't get finished this weekend...

96. Finish watching Star Trek Enterprise: Season 1, Season 2, Season 3, and Season 4. Just picked up a reserved copy of Season 3 from the library. I'm already about halfway through it thanks to cable reruns and netflix.

Progress Report

Donated 80 more grains of rice at freerice.com. I might change this goal to 100,000 grains of rice through any subject matter because I'm sick of seeing the same questions over and over again...

Read Nights in Rodanthe my Nicholas Sparks, so I've read two out of fifty books. This one was actually for a book club and I had a really hard time getting into it.

Woke up naturally this morning... okay so Chris got up to an alarm but I stayed in bed so that counts!

Got to work at 7:30 on Friday morning so thats one more day down as "arrive later than 7:15" (I'm such a workaholic so this is a really good improvement).

I've watched 8 Stargate Atlantis episodes I haven't seen yet so I've only got about 11 left to go and then I'm all caught up on the series!

I'm currently working on organizing my recipe book. I retyped a lot of bad looking recipes that I copied out of books. I just need to print them, find a binder I want to put them in, and come up with an organizational system that works for me!

6/250... a long way to go!

Started working on number 3 this afternoon: Read The Brothers Grimm Fairy Tales Collection. There are 250 stories in my collection and today I read six of them:

1. The Frog King or Iron Heinrich
2. The Companionship of Cat and Mouse
3. The Virgin Mary's Child
4. The Boy who went Forth to learn What fear Was
5. The Wolf and the Seven Young Kids
6. Faithful Johannes

So far... not what I was expecting.

10/101 still complete (not bad! not bad!)

Another One Bites the Dust

73. Organize lesson plan materials already in binders. Did this today... when I shouldn't have. Oh well.

10/101 Complete!

Photo Gallery

#78 Frame HS senior photograph


#33 Learn how to crochet and/or knit


#29 Complete my U.S. Quarter Collection


#77 Frame family photos from HS and NMU graduation in matching frames


#55 Get bookshelves


#56 Organize my books in the bookshelves

A few changes....

Well I already reached number 91: Realize that this list is not set is stone and may change as I change, as I changed a few items on my list. NOT because I can't reach them but because there are other things I'd also like to accomplish during this time.

Changed #37 "Bake Bannana Nut Bread" to "Bake 10 new recipes".
Changed #94 "Revise and edit Centre of Evil" to "Eat an IHOP" (just something I've always wanted to do! lol).
Changed #101 "Write a new 101 List for the 2012 challenge" to "Knit a Ponho." I learned to knit the other day (fullfilling another requirement) and fell in LOVE with it. I've always wanted to knit a poncho so that seemed like a great one to add.

Things accomplished:
29. Complete my U.S. Quarter Collection - - Found my last quarter Hawaii! Chris threw his change in the out bin and I saw it!

33. Learn how to crochet and/or knit - - Stopped at Hobby Lobby Thursday and picked up needles, yarn, and a "learn to knit" book and a few hours later... *bam* I had nailed the first type of knitting stitch. I made a whole wash cloth!

55. Get bookshelves: Picked up two black finished ones at Target

56. Organize my books in the bookshelves: Spent ALL day today on this. I have a LARGE collection.

91. Realize that this list is not set is stone and may change as I change: Changed a few items already on my list so I made this one already in my brain.

9/101 Complete! I hope I can keep this up! :)

Progress

3/101 Completed.

Yesterday I framed my high school senior photograph in a nice 8x10 photo frame (that I actually had lying around the house!) This seriously shouldn't be that difficult but considering the fact that its been sitting around for 5.5 years... I guess it was. A photograph coming soon.
