Update #38

Family
36. Visit my mom for a weekend

Might get to this coming weekend, finances allowing.


37. Arrange a visit/outing with Ron and Jeff

Granted dad doesn't screw with the visitation schedules like he loves doing, Ron and Jeff will be at mom's this weekend. We can all go to the Polk Sallet festival together! :-D


Travel
98. Visit Connie wherever she's living at the time

If I get to go to Harlan this weekend, I'll definitely give Connie a ring and see about making some merry at the Polk Sallet festival with some ice cream, lol.


Got a lot riding on this weekend. Here's hoping my car doesn't break us up... and that we can find a goat-sitter.

Bits & Pieces

Food and Health
40. Try a new recipe and/or food every month (9/143)

This month, we tried caramel cinnamon rolls... which were okay, but I like plain old cinnamon rolls better. We also tried caramel cookies, which were pretty yummy.


Outdoors
57. Plant flowers in a flowerbed and/or in hanging flower pots from the porch

Larry and I have been researching online as to what works well in our "zone," what works in our flowerbed area, and what won't kill my goats should they break loose and eat my plants. We've also asked Nana what she thinks. :-) Hopefully, we'll get some stuff planted this week or next.


Also, I wanted to note that I will most likely be changing goal #98 from "visit Connie and Catie in Cincinnati" to "visit Connie wherever she is residing at the time." At this point in time, I think any visits with Catie are to be considered not possible. This might change later on, since there's still lots of time left in my goals, but for now, there you have it.

Update #37

I'm late, I know... Other stuff has kept me busy. I haven't done too much in the way of my 101 in 1001, honestly.


Food and Health
40. Try a new recipe and/or food every month (8/143)

I need a new recipe/food to try. Do new tea count? I've tried like... 4 new teas this month.


Friends
46. Send each close friend a handcrafted item

Still working on it.


That's about it.

Update #36

Family
36. Visit my mom for a weekend

I'm thinking of going to see mom the weekend of the Polk Sallet (sp?) Festival, but that's still up in the air... as in unlikely.


Other than that, I haven't really done anything worth reporting on. Here's some plotting instead.


Food and Health
40. Try a new recipe and/or food every month (8/143)

Still looking for a new food/recipe to try.


Friends
46. Send each close friend a handcrafted item

I'm working on a shawl, but because of the color, I don't know who to give it to. Certain people in my life might mistake a white shawl as encouragement for certain things I disapprove of if I gave it to them.


Love My Larry
50. Make sure his 27th birthday is the best one he’s ever had

I've got some money saved up... not much, but enough to do a little something, if nothing else.


Personal Upgrades
61. Get a cushy state job

At this point, how about "get a job period."


In the future, I may make a change to my "Travel" section due to unexpected changes in my life. I may or may not still have the desire to visit this person anytime between now and the end of my 101 in 1001. Time will tell, though.

Update #35

Personal Upgrades
64. Wear my hair down for one week (7/7)

Yay! I did it! Well... after today, I will have done it. ^_~ Go me!


Satisfying Nerdom
89. Place tags on all of my old journal entries including LJ and Xanga

My LJ account, JanneDoe, has been completely tagged. I'm still not sure if I should do my old accounts (ZameTheJedi and Trinity_Heart). When I made this list, I was thinking of just my active account on LJ and my Xanga account.

Hair's My Update (Yuk Yuk Yuk)

Personal Upgrades
64. Wear my hair down for one week (4/7)

How sad is it that I'm doing better with this goal than I was with my caffeine goal? My new bangs annoy the crap out of me, though. I've been wearing headbands to keep them out of my eyes.

Note: By "wearing my hair down," I mean not in a ponytail, braid(s), bun, or pigtails.
