List for 2010

Chelsie and I decided to play off of another timed list of goals titled 101 things to do in 1,001 days. We came up with the idea to make a list of 50 things we will do in 2010. One of the items on our list will be to donate a dollar to Race For The Cure for each item on the list that is incomplete.

I have decided to keep my list here, as one of my items clarifies.

50 Things to Do in 2010:

1. Plant plants in my backyard. ( I did do this, but I don't do well with plants and no shade... equals dead plants .super quickly)

2. Scrapbook once a month. (nope. but spend a couple weeks scrapping almost every day!)

3. Workout 3-5 times a week.

4. Host or Attend a game night once a month.
