Review of Goals for the year

In this entry I stated my goals for the year.

Here are them in review:

Measurable:

1. Setup weight bench (the replacement for the oft broken excersize bicycle)

I ended up getting rid of the bench, since it was taking up too much room and it was also missing pieces...lots of pieces...jackholes.

2. Start using weigh bench on a regular basis

Kinda hard to do considering the thing was missing parts

3. Expand walking distance, start to run on parts of it

I did do this, I was walking 2 miles, when winter came I was up to 2.6 miles, however I didn't run much (hurt knees).

4. Get to more music events

I made it to quite a few shows this year, including Atmosphere, Fall out Boy, and etc. This is even true with the couple of shows that cancelled on me this year (Ween, Queens of the Stoneage).

6. Listen to more and a wider variaty of music.

Listened to more Jazz, hip-hop, and etc. Still a slow year for buying music, cause not a whole lot said you must buy me.

7. Take more pictures, friends, family and the world around me.

My pictures have increased drastically since I bought the new camera. So much so that I'm concerned about space now.

8. Cook, bake and etc more.

I now bake something about every other month or so (on avg, some months more, other months none). I cook for Shannon and I probably 7-8 times a week (some breakfasts and lunches).

Not as measureable:

1. Be more honest with myself and others.

I think I have been, as evidenced by a few events this year.

2. Be a better friend.

This has been better true, trying to think of more then just myself, and being more considerate (thank you cards/gifts for staying at a friends), Helping people move, when they need it. Although there are things that do make it tougher to do, since I don't have as much free time as I used to.
