5. Learn to knit and make something I can wear The scarf is ALLLLMOST done. Also, I have some exciting news on what the next project will be....hint...it is something crazy that may have me in WAY over my head! But in a great way.

7. Volunteer for a particular charity/organization (more to come) Starting the research phase.

9. Have a Yard Sale In the spring, Yo
10. Go to Vancouver Decided on August.
11. Print 20 photos every month - make an album Okay - I did an okay job with this one this month. Last month was kind of slack, but this month i tried to step it up. The biggest challenge was feeling weird about taking photos with other people around, OF them. For example, there were none taken at Thanksgiving because I just didn't want to both people to get all in one spot for one. Keep in mind we were already in my apartment. Anyway. I'm going to try buying a disposable camera this month and then top up those pictures with iphone photos. But overall, I did much better this month I think.
12. Host a dinner party - cook it all yourself! Well I kinda did that with Thanksgiving, but I don't think it counts because a) the main course was gross/not done on time and b) there weren't enough chairs at the table for everyone. I want a nice sit-down dinner for this one.
13. Travel to Chicago Not yet.
14. Throw someone a surprise party Shhh
15. Make cards for all friends/family birthdays and anniversaries Did MUCH better on this one. I haven't mailed ONE card (that is done and sitting next to me - oops!)

24. Go to each of the following: a poetry reading; a book event (non work related); a concert - all by myself I bought myself Sheezer tickets! The show is tomorrow so that will get crossed off then, but I bought them in October and made the plan to go with or without anyone else.
25. Try some kind of kickboxing/ass whooping class. later
26. Call each of my sisters for a sit-down conversation once a month (I have a lot of sisters so this will take up most of my Sundays) This was definitely lacking this month.
