21 for 2021 Recap

A little background again.  This list is anything I want -- fun, easy, challenging, inspiring, etc.  I make it in December of the previous year and use it as a reminder of things I want to do this year.  It's fun and intentional and isn't that what life is ... lots of little things adding up to a good year.

I changed one (horseback riding) because I didn't want to aggravate my back.  I've been riding a few times over my life and it didn't seem worth it anymore.  I added the Peloton challenge which you need to ride live on a milestone number and "hope" you get a shoutout.  

The GOOD:

    1. Side braid hair and learn new updo -- DID BOTH

    2. Wear The Green Dress out -- TRAVEL DAY TO NY WEDDING

    3. mini-pot garden and eat something I grow -- CUCUMBERS, TOMATOES AND HERBS

    4. use 2020 yeast purchase for something yummy -- CINNAMON BREAD

    5. intentional gathering (Art of Gathering inspired) -- GIRL'S TRIPS TO ASHEVILLE

    6. stop taking zen melts for sleeping -- YEP

    7. See bff in-person -- IN ASHEVILLE

    8. See college roomie in-person -- IN NY 

    9. make black-n-white cookies -- ELDEST LOVED THEM

    10. make something to display -- crafty me -- PICTURE ON WALL

    11. log 21 hours of Spanish practice -- DAILY PRACTICE NOW

    12. do a ONE HOUR long meditation -- LONG, BUT I DID IT

    13. FIVE mile run -- TREADMILL FOR THE WIN

    14. put up outside Christmas lights on porch -- BACK PORCH SUCCESS 

    15. new RX sunglasses; check out option for Lasix -- GLASSES, NO GO FOR LASIX

    16. live shout-out on Peloton -- GOT 2 IN ONE CLASS

The Ones Not Done (COVID)

    1. visit bee and honey farm -- CLOSED

    2. take a pottery class on the wheel -- INDOORS AND DIDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE

The One Hormone Related In-Complete

    1. more bedroom time with hubby -- DANG HORMONES 

The Ones I Missed

    1. golf -- DIDN'T EVEN TRY

    2. sub 24 min 5K -- NOT ENOUGH FOCUS ON THIS (improved but not close enough)

Not too shabby, says me.

The three I still want to accomplish (either moving to 22 list or just carry-overs) are bedroom time, golf and sub 24 run.  All are possible if I make the effort and all are things I still want to accomplish.

HARDEST:

Garden

MOST PROUD:

Spanish

EASIEST:

Stop taking zen melts

MOST FUN:

Seeing college roommate in-person

FIRST ONE:

black-n-white cookies (I think)

LAST ONE:

5 mile run

ONE THAT SURPRISED ME:

Wear The Green Dress out (didn't think I'd do it)

BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT:

bedroom time

22 for 2022 list coming soon.  Later gators.
