For the record, I have not had a chance to update this as often as I intended. I wanted a Sunday Summary weekly update it just hasn't worked yet... maybe one of these days I can get it caught up!
Tonight I went on a date with my husband (#22)... it was a last minute squeeze to get time in before the month was over! So now I can update it to {1/33}. We changed plans at the last minute and it was nice to be able to have conversation without interruptions. As much as I enjoy the littles, sometimes the interruptions can get nerve wracking! We enjoyed a yummy Bavarian Pretzel (mostly the Hot Mustard keeps us coming back!)
OOOOOOO!!!! I got two projects completed (projects that I have been working on that have been in limbo! #78 is now {2/5}. First is an Advent Calendar & the Second is a Perpetual Calendar for family birthday's and anniversary's. May need to change the number because I want to finish a BUNCH of projects... wasn't sure I had 10 unfinished projects but know that I have at least 3 more and that's just off the top of my head Ok - editing it to be 10!!!!! The Advent was from Pinterest (#48) so it's a DOUBLER dipper and I get to check off one from my 50 Pinterest projects! Only 49 more to go!!!!
The Advent Calendar. For now they are on my fridge (I made one for Squeak and one for Sqwak). Can't find a 12X12 piece of metal to frame but have until my birthday if I want it framed. It will work like this for now! ;-)
The Perpetual Calendar (had to trim them down to 8.5 inches high) and staggered the pages for easy flipping. January/February is the longest and each page gets 1/4 inch smaller from there. There are two pictures. The first picture is the odd months showing the printed edge of each page (in order from top to bottom: November, September, July, May, March and January).
The second is the even months (in order from top to bottom: December, October, August, June, April, and February).
The links are to the pages that I pinned and used as a printing resource.
This post I started with saying I have updates, before I go I better update my list... so here goes:
60. 5 {various} Fasts - could be food, television, technology, etc - whatever the need is. This one I probably won't be updating during or immediately after. The Fast is necessary for personal growth and it's not about LOOK WHAT I AM DOING....
63. Orange Rhino I am a yeller and I don't like it... it's frustrating for me and it's not a healthy environment. My husband is not a yeller and doesn't come from a loud vocal family. This is something I really want to change in our house/my heart. Not sure HOW I am going to embrace this but defiantly want to!
83. 30 days wearing make up. People defiantly treat you differently when you wear makeup. My biggest battle with this is my influence on my daughter. Beauty is NOT exterior it is interior and I don't want her to think she is beautiful only when she wears something beautiful or puts on make up. I am her example to learn from and live by However, I feel more confident and do enjoy the positive attention. Also trying to escape the burpcloth/frumpy phase of my life and get back to living in my own skin!
84. One Word for One Year for a Transformed Forever I have done something like this before but wanting another go at it. Thinking I have found my word but continue in prayer over it!
85. Volunteer with the Transform Burien at least 6 times (I SOOOOOO want to do more, but have YOUNG children and need to be realistic about my time and also my own selfishness....
Extra Notes:
Possibly go to a cooking class at Salty's (#17) or go to Tacoma for (#57) a Glassblowing Class (both recommended by cousins - talked about at Christmas Dinner).
There is also a sewing group that meets once a month at my church. This will be a great opportunity for me to work on my quilt #30!
As for #38 - thinking I am going to begin with the Romans Road...just like the other that I changed to a higher number, if this becomes too easy I will "over achieve" on it!
