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!

    On a side note: I entered and then read all the comments. I’m amazed at how many followers do not make a list. A list makes me feel secure. The list is written in chalk on my kitty chaulk board. Easy to erase and add things. I strongly urge my Quilting sisters to have a list of important things you want to finish. Start with a project that is almost done and work down to the project waiting to be cut. I guarantee you will feel a sense of pride and accomplishment when you see things marked off. Just my two cents worth.

    Happy New Year Ann & Chelsea!
    Yes, I have a bucket list. After the year, I cross out what I have not accomplished and put them on the new list. I do this not only to rid myself of guilt for not finishing them but to remind myself there is still HOPE. I don’t ever want to give up so I have to believe in hope. Yes, someday the projects will get done but I don’t want to beat myself up if their not done on schedule.
    Love,
    Mary
