2016 - Goals Recap

Once again, the time has come to see what I accomplished, vs what I WANTED to accomplish in the last calendar year. I somehow totally forgot about this from years past until I started writing on Monday...

I'll put a line through the ones I actually did complete. Then we can look forward to creating a list for 2017 :)

  8. Have a mommy/daughter date at least once a month.
  9. Have a mommy/daddy date at least once a month.

  50. Believe in my ability to complete all of these goals :)
Huh. Looks like less than 20 last year?!? I'm not sure if I set crazy goals, or maybe I'm just being more strict for what counts as 'completion.' Luckily, I don't feel any less successful than 2015. ;)  I'll set up a new list for 2017 really soon, and we'll try again!

This is some list! #20 Paint the living room - is on my list as well. Ours really needs a touch up. As does the kitchen.

That's an ambitious Yelp goal! (100 reviews = a little less than 10 per month?) I'm going to the MOD event in Woodhaven tomorrow if you're going to that, as well as the Andiamo Warren event :).

My goal is to read more, I've been slacking on that lately.

You've already accomplished a ton. You should be proud of yourself!

You accomplished much more than you didn't!!! That's what counts. Great job!
