October is here and I can see the end of this test for me trying to prove that I can...what? Stick to something for sixty days, keep accurate records of my daily activities, or prove that sixty isn't as old as it sounds. I suppose it is something in between or possibly all of the above. Am I growing weary of the daily thoughts of what to do next on the list? Most definitely. However, doing sixty things of sixty things is not quite as daunting as it may seem especially when I have had 365 days to accomplish footle (one of my new words). Gratefully, after agonizing and moaning over a few of the more difficult ones, the remaining fourteen do seem to be obtainable by year end.
The last of the list...
Swimming, learning new words, dancing, serving food, planting, baking, drinking, sewing, blogging, memorizing a few foreign phrases, piano playing, picture taking, cooking, and lifting weights.
It almost sounds like I should be celebrating. Not so fast. The tiresome cookie baking is finally coming to a close; this one ranks at the higher end for being the most whined about goal. And after the rough beginning with the closed pool due to some chlorine malfunction, I have a mere five miles of swimming to complete. As far as the others, well, time is marching on but I am confident that the final few will also march off the "to do" list.
Persevere and never quit is my motto until December 31st as the last goals will slowly slide into the done pile. On a side note, since Wisconsin is experiencing an explosion of winning teams, I will use these last three months as a springboard to launch me and my list over the surmountable goal post! (Could the over saturation of sport's terminology have anything to do with the number of games watched this weekend?) She scores again with a home run blog! Me-- 51 Blogs to complete-- 9
