December was a good month, I accomplished several of my goals. As it stands I have about 1/4 of my goals completed which is pretty great considering I'm only slightly more than 15% of the way into my time period. Another 1/4 of my goals are in progress, some are well on their way to completion.
As is the popular fad, I am planning to go on a new year's diet/fitness thingy so I'm looking forward to my stretching, pull-ups and push-ups goals making significant progress in 2014. My 365 photoblog has been going strong since its revival a few months ago and I look forward to its completion in 2014. I think I will try to continue it past the "end." In 2014 I hope to accomplish many more goals, I think this list is easier (and more successful) than New Year's resolutions.
I invite all of you to make your own lists! Perhaps when I complete this list I will make a 365 in 365. What are your thoughts?

Tie dye rainbow cake
Today I learned why you are only supposed to fill cake pans halfway...
This qualifies for rainbow cake but not for pretty.

Bunny Mansion
My dad was pretty intent on making it a square. I was pretty intent on making it big enough. Should have stuck with 2ft x 3ft. 30in square is plenty big but guess what is smaller than 30in... (a door frame)
The rabbit loves it though.
Cookies
As promised, here are the gingerbread men (and moose and giraffes and wrenches...) made and decorated with friends!

November Summary
Not started: 54
In Progress: 27
Complete: 19
Still not sure which one is missing....
My sister has gifted me with this journal and I have been using it as directed. Basically each day has a question/prompt and a short space in which you can write one or two sentences. Small enough to spend 2 minutes on daily but still technically a journal!
I have been very busy this month (and expect to be pretty busy in December too) so I haven't made huge progress but that's ok!
I made Nessie a new cage with my Dad over the Thanksgiving holiday but have not had a spare minute to assemble it again back home.
I'm looking forward to visiting MN for the Christmas Holiday and hopefully sending out cards on time *fingers crossed!*

October Recap
Hello everyone
Here's my October recap.
I again did not spend an hour with my camera but I'd already failed that one so I'm not going to stress about it. I did drink plenty of beers in October and I am rapidly approaching the halfway point. In case you are worried, I don't think I am drinking more beers than I did previously, I just make an effort to choose different ones each time. Instead of grabbing a case of Sam Adams Boston Lager, I'll grab the seasonal, and instead of getting the same seasonal again because it's so darn good, I try to pick something different each time. I am probably rambling about beer because I am currently enjoying one while attempting to make a significantly sized blog post. I also had shift for IMAlive the other night so I got some hours in for that. In October I did two shifts which is less than ideal but better than nothing. I also gave blood in October and I am eligible again in December. I think I met one of the goals I designated for the month and the car-cleaning and espresso-making fell by the wayside. I am starting to wish I'd put different things on my list (like fix my damn laptop charger pluggy area).
I accomplished all of two goals in October but in the first few days of November I've gotten two more done and have plans for a third.
Days left: 896
(As of writing this which counts some)

(still haven't found which one is missing but I can't honestly say I looked)

September Roundup
Well here's my September Recap:
Not started: 63
In Progress: 23
Complete: 14
Still not sure which one is missing....
Things I completed this month:
Walk across the GWB Took some nice pictures for that one
Hang lights under my bed
Install Linux again (Linux Mint!) This one was a huge disaster at first but at least I learned some lessons without losing data.
Reduce GMail storage to 10% or come up with a good justification for the things I saved (I came up with an excuse)
Use my dremel for something: It came out pretty lame or I'd post pictures. If anyone has beginner dremel project suggestions, I am all ears.
I drank several beers, read portions of many books, painted my nails, wore a dress (actually a few times).
I did fail to actually take photographs for an hour so it looks like at least $100 is going to go to charity.
This month I am going to set some suggested goals for myself. I'm picking:
