Only a few weeks left in 2012.

Tonight I was looking back in my computer to see if I wrote any kind of “end of year wrap up” for 2011 and found nothing but revisions of resumes and cover letters dated 2011.  I guess that’s where my mind was last year at this time!  What a difference a year makes.

It was fun to go back and read my December 2011 and January 2012 blogs – the books and movies that I indulged in during unemployment and my blogs about what I will and won’t miss about unemployment.  Ah.

Pretty good stuff.  I think I was the most creative during that time!  Blogs in early 2012 were pretty ‘meh.”  I guess brain power was going elsewhere for a while… rightly so!

Anyway, found this list again:

12 Things to Get Done in 2012

1. See Garrison Keillor at the Fitzgerald Theatre
2. Visit the Four Daughters Vineyard in Spring Valley (maybe more than once!). Doesn’t it look lovely?
3. Get my passport – so I’m ready!  This was on my list of 40 Things and it didn’t happen.  It will happen – soon.
4. Write – at least weekly blogs
5. Write – more letters. It’s so fun to get mail.
6. Eat healthy and REAL food
7. Watch for and attend more Table Trivia Nights
8. Seek out author and book events, especially for authors and books I love!
9. Go to New York City to see “Once – the Musical” – you see that, Troy
10. While in NYC maybe go on a Greenwich Village walking tour with Adriana Trigiani (love her!)
11. Read at least one GOOD book per month.  Easily achievable.
12. Try new recipes and cook for myself (or invite others!)

Still no passport (eeek!) and no Garrison yet, but NYC twice in a year?  A dream come true.

Seeing “Once” twice?  Amazing.

Even on Facebook in January 2011 I was posting links for the musical and dreaming of getting there.

Fun to start my dream list for 2013!  What do I want to come true this coming year???

I have to review my birthday list of 11 Things to do in the Fall, as the Winter Solstice is coming up soon and it’ll be time for a new list!  Yikes!

More later on that!
