Completion of #50

#50: Come up with 10 goals a day for 9.9 days in order to complete this list.

I am pretty flexible, especially with goals..., so this one didn't turn out exactly as planned, but that's my own fault for trying to do it while starting a new job and during a holiday that I hosted at my house. However, I still count this a job well done. 99 goals were created in 10 days, and that's what matters.

My new #12

I said before that I wanted to scratch my goal of watching all of the old Dr. Who.  That really is mainly because I don't want it to become a chore, and the fact that it's not entirely realistic.  I know how I am and I know how Brandon is and we can get burned out on things and we seldom want to watch the same thing at the same time.

So, that being said, I have a new goal to replace it.

#12: Read all of the Histories by Shakespeare.
History + classic British author = win.  And I think I'll read them in chronological order.
The Life and Death of King John
The Tragedy of King Richard the Second
The First Part of King Henry the Fourth
The Second Part of King Henry the Fourth
The Life of King Henry the Fifth
The First Part of Henry the Sixth
The Second Part of Henry the Sixth
The Third Part of Henry the Sixth
The Tragedy of King Richard the Third

The Life of King Henry the Eighth

New Goals 91 - 99

This is freaking me out a little. It's that once I write down the 99, I'm afraid I'm going to change my mind or something. I have changed my mind on the Dr. Who goal already... It's not that one per week is too much, it's that I don't want to turn it into a "chore." I'll have to come up with a replacement.

#91: Read the LotR trilogy and the Silmarillion and re-read the Hobbit.

#92: Visit Savannah, GA or Charleston, SC.

#93: Go to the temple and do all-day sessions each year on our anniversary (or around it).

#94: Buy a classic Disney songs piano book.
For all that awesome piano playing I'm going to be doing.

#95: Go to an amusement park (did I already do this one? Yes, yes I did, it's number 55 in my pre-list. DANGIT!)

#95: Climb a lighthouse with Brandon.

#96: Create a collage of family photos (in frames) in my dining room.

#97: Start a tradition of Sunday dinners.

#98: Buy ten TPBs from my list of Batman TPBs to buy.

And finally:

#99: Create Wedding photo books for both my parents and Brandon's parents.

I need to replace that Dr. Who one, but other than that, I'm done.  Since that replacement is going to be my "real" final goal, I'm going to think about it for a day or so to make it really good.
It won't have anything to do with wrestling.  Brandon is making me watch wrestling right now... And I feel like my brain is rotting.

New Goals 81 - 90

Oh dear, since I skipped thanksgiving and the day before, now I have to play catch up (I'm already so brain dead that I nearly wrote "katchup"...

#81: Find the restaurant on the river in Wilmington that I went to when I was in high school and take Brandon.
1. I loved it and 2. I want to eat on the river again soon.

#82: Get my eyes checked this year and then again in 2 years.

#83: Buy a new pair glasses.

#84: Send Brandon to the eye doctor and get his eyes checked too.

#85: Go on one of those cool horse-drawn tours in downtown Wilmington.

#86: See Natural Bridge.

#87: Plant a tree.

#88: Complete a Charles Dickens novel (other than A Christmas Carol).

#89: Officially read every Jane Austen novel.
I'm ashamed to say I've only completed Emma and Pride and Prejudice.

#90: Make pasta from scratch.

New Goals 71 - 80

We aren't going to talk about how I missed two days.
But I am going to make mental note to never again start a new job during Thanksgiving week. Or any holiday, for that matter.

#71: Maintain my perpetual journal for the entirety of 2013, 2014 and what part of 2015 is included in this 999 days.

#72: Buy an out building.
And I need to make sure that it's big enough for my garden stuff.

#73: Make a pumpkin pie.
Brandon loves it for Thanksgiving and I always buy frozen, so I'm planning on making one and finding a recipe he loves.

#74: Buy a proper wardrobe.
I have the crappiest wardrobe ever.

#75: Buy Brandon a proper wardrobe.
So does Brandon.

#76: Re-memorize the state capitols.
Don't judge me.

#77: Find my bliss and follow it.
I'm funny about numbers and 77 is my favorite number, do this one had to be my favorite goal. I'll probably change it later, but for now it's #77.
But on a note related to the goal: this needs to happen. Period.

No, Anne, having a goal about eating more sweet potato soufflé is not acceptable. But you should still eat more of it.

#78: Pack my lunch every day for a month.

#79: Go a month without any processed foods.
I've done this before, and it's hard at first, but so worth it.

#80: Learn 5 constellations that I can see in the summertime and know the history behind them.

New Goals 61 - 70

#61: Complete one month of "a photo a day."

#62: Learn how to meditate.
You know, proper mediation, where my mind is clear of all thought.

#63: Go on a camping trip and "rough it" for a few days - no cell phones!

#64: Learn how to make good spaghetti sauce from scratch.

#65: Visit a restaurant that I've seen on Food Network.
It doesn't matter if it's from "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives" or "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" or whatever, I just want to visit somewhere that I've seen on there.

#66: Catch up with the scrapbooks for Mom and Dad.

#67: Buy a new pair of sneakers.
I've had the same pair since high school...which some people might find shocking, but since I wear flip flops most of the time in my spare time, it's not that big of a deal.  But now that I'm a working girl (even thought I've been a "working girl" for 3 years...oh my gosh it took me way too long to get to that point in life) and I can't wear flip flops to work, I need some new shoes.

#68: The goal that shall not be named, but has to do with that thing that I need to get done.
I'm sure I could be more vague, but I think that's vague enough. Not that it matters, because Brandon is the only one who reads my stuff, and that's only because I make him.  Oh, hun, I am going to enter in your contest, don't worry.

#69: Maintain that book list that I created.
If I learn how to maintain it, it will become a habit and I will do it FOREVER!

#70: Write in my spiritual journal weekly.
This will hopefully encourage me to do spiritual things more often.

I play this game on my phone called "the Simpsons: Tapped Out" (I call it "Simpsonville"...which is very incorrect) and you build a virtual version of Springfield and get to meet the characters from the Simpsons and whatever.  I find it sad that I wanted to just make a goal about that.  You earn money for doing things (fake money, unfortunately) and I'm saving up to buy the Thanksgiving balloon of Santa's Little Helper.  But I was going to say something like "purchase all of the available land spots in Tapped Out"...I'm a loser. Whatever, leave me alone, I need to go harvest my tomacco.
