2008 Goals

  • I will walk/run/bike a distance of 1,000 miles. I know. It seems like a lot. Basically, I need to complete just under 20 miles a week. If I can manage 4 miles on a regular basis and add in a longer weekend run/walk into the mix, I should be able to do it without any trouble. Plus, there's that whole wanting to do a marathon thing. This is a means to an end; a concrete goal that will help me meet some other goals.


  • I will have better posture. I slouch too much. I don't know if its laziness or if its a habit of trying to make myself smaller. More than likely its a matter of trying to keep my breasts from trying to bust through button down shirts. But dude, seriously, check out Nancy Pelosi, that woman has terrific posture. I want that. If you see me slouching, poke me or something. Button popping be damned.


  • I will enroll and attend a Landscape Architecture program beginning in the fall. There are several things that lead up to this, including finishing my portfolio, application letters, etc., then moving, finding a way to pay for said education and more fun.


  • I will make at least 2 batches of wine this year. One will be from grape concentrate and the other will be a fresh fruit that I have to mash, crush, measure, correct, etc. prior to fermentation.

Wish me luck, encouragement, whatever.
