Make a List for 2018!
Chelsea and I each made a bucket list back in 2011, and I found a copy of it today. Six years later and we haven’t completed much on our list. Chelsea’s still waiting for her pink convertible, and I’m still trying to organize my photos.
The beautiful thing about this list is that it’s New Year’s Eve and we have another full year to complete it! I told her I think we need to review and set more realistic goals for 2018. She keeps reminding me that she’s getting older and wants to update her list with things like a fluffy new bed.
She’s been lounging around today watching me fill up my market basket with goodies to give away tomorrow.
The basket is bursting at the seams, and I can hardly lift it! I’ve been collecting things all year, and there are 12 bags of treats inside! We’re going to pick 12 winners tomorrow, and each one is going to get a treat bag!
All you have to do to win is leave me a comment telling me if you’ve ever done a bucket list. Do you think it’s a good idea to do a yearly bucket list? One that you can review at the end of each year to see how much you’ve accomplished? Do you have any other ideas for organizing in 2018?
Chelsea and I will be back tomorrow with a list of 12 winners.
Happy New Year’s Eve!

I have done a bucket list and need to start another one…. sometimes it helps me keep focused. I like to keep a list of my shortest term projects… middle of the road projects and then what I consider some that will take time to complete…. my EPP projects tend to be my long term projects for the most part. Sometimes it’s good to review projects… I have on rare occasion a project that for one reason or another I’m no longer interested in… it’s better if I make that decision and move on. With a list like that that extends over the year I find easier to accomplish more. My long term projects move on to another year but that’s ok as I am making progress. It’s fun to cross off the complete ones. Being a pretty compulsive person makes it easy for me to keep my projects organized along with my sewing room and I find it gives me the time to add in a few things that have come along over time to squeeze in and complete during the year. My goal when I retired was to quilt every day and so far I’m right on track.

I have never done a bucket list. I have done lists of projects i want to do. Going to do this again this year as I got a tad disorganised and the year ran away with me ;) lol

I never have a formal bucket list but I have a list of things that I’d like to accomplish in the new year. You’ve got me thinking that I should write things down and have a timeline for each one. Might help The procrastinating!
