Wow I can’t believe it’s the middle of the year already… seriously how does this keep happening…
Anyway, I decided that being the middle of the year it was a good time to do a list up date because while there are lots I have posted about there are still a few that have happened which haven’t made it to a blog on their own… so here is what I have done so far… click the links on the ones that have their own special blog for the full details if you wish…
3. Read 6 books – completed 25/4/12
Here they are…
1. Sing you home – Jodi Picoult, 2. The Girl with Dragon Tattoo – Stieg Larsson, 3. It – Craig Groeschel
4. The Hunger Games – Suzanne Collins, 5. Catching Fire – Suzanne Collins, 6. Mockingjay – Suzanne Collins
And the reading continues… I am officially a book worm once again.
8. Make a photo book with our wedding photos – completed 20/6/12
It looks pretty good if you ask me… complete with my favourite pics from our amazing photographer as well as some others taken by friends and family.
16. Bake Meringues
24. Finish watching Mcleod’s Daughters – completed 14/4/12
It’s done… all done… there is no more and while it feels good to have finally finished all eight seasons… I am a little sad, I wish there was more…
30. Go Camping – completed 7-9/5/12
I did actually blog about this as well… again… I just forgot to mention crossing it off the list in the blog… check it out here
31. Go to the museum
34. Have a bath – completed 15/4/12
I decided that photos of this would be inappropriate and unwanted, so you will just have to trust me. I have in fact had a couple of baths (as opposed to showers which I have daily) and they were all very relaxing… I think it is something that I need to do more often.
35. Make a mocktail
37. Go on a Road trip – completed 29/6/12
Even though it was back to Bendigo again, I have decided that it still counts, Dave and I went, we spent the night hung out with friends and we were in the car for more than an hour… so road trip it is…
39. See a Musical
I also saw Annie the musical in May, which is one of my all time favourites and definitely worth seeing…
42. Finish unpacking my stuff in the study
55. Clean the gunk off the little hav
56. Eat at 10 different breakfast places
58. Visit a country town I have never been to before – completed 7-9/5/12
I did actually blog about this as well… again… I just forgot to mention crossing it off the list in the blog… check it out here…
57. Bust a move in a random location
60. See the fire balls at crown – completed 18/5/12
I was lucky enough to catch up with my buddy Jana in the city for dinner and as both of us are terrible decision makers we ended up kiking through the city using the ‘urban spoon’ app to choose our destinations. It was a workout, but on the plus side, I got to spend more time with Jana, we found places we had never been to before and I got to see the fireballs…
62. Learn a new joke – completed 26/5/12
64. Visit Bendigo – completed 24/6/12
It was a quick sticks trip just to hang out with my mate Melface… and the rest of course but she had flown over from WA so I guess that’s worth mentioning… Super fun… just like it always was… and here is a picture of my journey home the next morning… it was nice to watch the sunrise over the country side.
65. Do my own washing once – completed 2/4/12
79. Go to the beach at least three times
86. Get and exercise piggy bank
95. Check my car’s oil – completed 12/6/12
99. Try and espresso
So there you go… almost halfway there, still a bit to go, but this is a nice reminder to get back on track with a couple of these… I need to be more deliberate about cooking dinner exercising and doing my devotions, I need to stop eating chocolate at breakfast… seriously it is not a breakfast food and I need to keep focused on my weight loss, chores and date days… because I can’t cross them off the list if they are not done, and they need to be done… But so far not too bad, I am getting there and still having fun doing it.. only 60 to go.
Thats a great effort, we’ll try to get some more done soon. Maybe we need a ‘List Day’ instead of one of the date days, where you choose all the activities so you can cross them off the list.
