I made an abundance of resolutions this year. I don't know what possessed me. I'm not going to talk about all of them. This is more of an overview.
Eco
and volunteer work
Work on the new
school vegetable garden. This has turned into quite the time suck. I organized
volunteers to build the raised beds, shed, and benches. I've got nearly the
whole summer covered for watering. I procured the seeds. When I look at my email
sent folder, I’m a little shocked at the level of work I've put into this
thing. Think happy non-raining thoughts tomorrow at 3:15 when the students are
supposed to move dirt and mulch around! We already had to postpone once. For the
record, there are other parents also putting in huge amounts of time and
effort. It’s really quite a project.
Organize
triathlon fundraiser. I got two people to sign up. I was hoping for more, but
hey, two. I’m still sending out my own fundraising emails.
Grow one new
vegetable at home. Kale! Lemon cucumbers! And while we’re on the subject, I’d
like to mention that my fruit trees are all blooming out of control this year,
including the pear tree and Russian quince. Let’s hope I actually get to eat
some of it this year. Garden in general is looking great. Lots of work still
ahead, putting in my tomatoes are all that.
Hobbies
Finished two
jewelry projects.
According to
Good Reads, I’m slightly ahead of schedule, having read 17 books since the
first of the year.
Travel
Looking good!
Big trip planned.
Me Me Me
Buy some new
clothing. Got some great stuff at a rummage sale. That probably doesn't count.
Sprint
triathlon training is going well. I can run 4 miles now, which is more than the
race requires. A first for me. Biking is fine, swimming is fine. No complaints.
Does take a lot of time, though. Exercising.
Household
Uh. OK,
probably should buckle down here a little.
