35 Things To Do In 2012

I never set New Year’s resolutions.
I’ve tried in the past and have always failed…
so why bother.
Last year, my darling friend Katie compiled a list of “Things To Do” in lieu of writing Resolutions.
I find this idea to be genius and am therefore copying her.

Some of my “things” are long term or recurring projects.
other “things” are short term, one time deals.
but everything on my list is totally do-able
and I WILL do everything on my list in 2012.

  1. make eggs benedict
  2. no sweets for one month
  3. go on a hike
  4. make and print 50 recipe cards
  5. try one new recipe a week
  6. write one blog post a day for a month
  7. send 10 thank you cards for no real reason
  8. read 30 books
  9. complete an act of service every month
  10. sew an article of clothing
  11. fit into “those jeans” again
  12. have family pictures taken
  13. send out Christmas Cards
  14. take a spinning class
  15. Find a chocolate chip cookie recipe TJ actually likes
  16. go on a picnic
  17. go to the temple once a week for one month
  18. Find a name to take to the temple
  19. read the whole book of mormon
  20. save up to buy something I want
  21. create a grocery budget
  22. never go to bed with a dirty kitchen for a month
