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!

    No, I have never made a bucket list, but I think it would be a good idea.  As I get older I seem to do less…so I accomplish less, It might motivate me,  I don’t want to fail….I’m going to keep it realistic but not too easy.  I’ve always wanted to have a quilting project published in a magazine.  OK, that may be the start of my bucket list and probably the hardest to cross off.  I’ll give it some thought tomorrow and hopefully I can come up with a short list.  
    Happy New Year Anne, all the best in 2018!

    I have a list for this year. Had one last year and completed all 12 not all were on my list as babies,and weddings got in the way. It felt so good to get back to quilting after 2 years of cancer treatments. Hopefully I can stay on task this year too. The other thing on my list is to enjoy life and continue to teach my to granddaughters to sew and quilt.

     I love to dream and wish!  Why not!  Some days our lives and world can seem overwhelming so quilting and/or planning a new adventure can be calming!  
    I have an UFO list and it helps me focus on those unfinished projects!  January 1st is a great day to meditate and think about plans for 2918!  Happy New Year to you and your family!
