Because I have been finishing up all my little tasks for the year (submitting grades, finishing grant applications, dotting Ts and crossing Is), I feel like the year is already over. And it is. And when I look at my calendar for next year, it seems as if 2010 is already over too. Ugh.
But like last year, I like to do a few roundups of things I accomplished this year and things I hope to accomplish next year. Like in 2008 I read 88 books. In 2009, after realizing that I forgot almost everything about almost every book, I vowed to read less. I succeeded! I read 57 books. Congratulations me.
More importantly are the life skills: In 2009 I vowed to bake all my own bread. Yes, done! In 2010, I will refuse to buy canned beans or yogurt. I'll make my yogurt from my own cultures and make dried beans. What a little homemaker.
And finally, travel. In 2009 I went to two new states: Wyoming and Minnesota (hi minneapolis readers!). In 2010, I hope to round out the rest, because I said I'd do it by 2010, we'll just present I said 48 contiguous by the
end of 2010. So that leaves me with Montana, Idaho (how great, since I just learned that
Idaho doesn't exist), Kansas, North and South Dakota, and Washington and Oregon. I can do that, maaaaybe.
What about you?
