1) Create--and regularly update--a blog. Yeah, sure, I did that. I may not have blogged every day or week, but I did serve up *almost* one entry per month. That's good nuff for me.
2) Be more social. Definitely! I embraced my awkwardness instead of allowing it to cripple me. I went out more, had people over more, and even ran with a running group. I also went on a couple of group trips.
3) Paint more often. Nope, not really. But I managed to eek out a sketch or two.
4) Do the Warrior Dash. Totally!!! I did the Dash in Maryland in May with my hubby and a few of his friends. I had a blast and can't wait to sign up for next year!
5) Train for and complete a 10K. Sure did! I trained for several weeks and ran the Run4Shelter Race in Chestertown, MD in September. It was hard and I didn't run the entire time, but it was a great start for me. Half-marathon, here I come!
6) Wear a bikini. Check! I hired an amazing virtual trainer in April and lost 10 pounds over the course of a few months. I certainly did sport my kini at the beach with my family this summer. And halfway through Insanity, I wore it again in October during a trip to the lake.
7) Design and construct a wearable garment from scratch. Didn't get to that, but I definitely want to reach this goal next year.
8) Sell stuff on Etsy. No dice, but also planning this for next year. I'm getting my ducks in a row as I type this.
9) Grow my biggest fro ever. I'll say YES. Because my fro is still on the grow, baby. Every pic I take is the "biggest fro ever." Can't wait to see how much bigger it is next year.
10) Take a birthday trip. The trip didn't happen this year, but I love to travel and plan to see many places before I die. :)
I don't really want to think about the things I didn't do. Though I did try to make this blog into more than it was, I'm thrilled with everything I DID accomplish. 60% ain't bad at all! I'll take it. And I'm already setting goals for next year. ;)
