2. Completed finding a geocache!
16. I only journaled 4/5 times this month.
22. I recently finished reading Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters and Harmless and Boy Meets Boy
32. Went to a Mets game to complete this goal.

40. I succeeded in being tv free once a week
42. I made two new recipies. One was Wine chicken with Shallots, which was delicious. The other was Phyllo-wrapped chicken, which was also very good.
44. I continued to cook at home once a week
49. The night at the Mets game was our date night for the month
50. I am considering my goal to move out of my parents' house in progress because Justin and I just signed the lease for our own apartment! We will be fully moved in by August.
70. So far I am up to a total of 10 days doing something outside this summer, which is a good start.
78. I went to a park one time, so I may do this goal this summer.

Mid-June Update
16. I have written in my journal 3 times so far this month, so I'm on track for that goal.
21. I read The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place, Book 1: The Mysterious Howling by Maryrose Wood, and A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin
22. I read Goose Girl by Shannon Hale
41. Amy, Justin and I had a game night on Saturday. It was a lot of fun, and we got to play lots of board games.
42. I cooked two new recipes so far. The firs twas BBQ beef sandwiches, which I made in a crock pot. They were smoky and tasty. The second was Mexican lasagna. It was really easy and tasted pretty good!
44. I cooked at home on the 9th and 16th, although I missed one week.
61. I got my second HPV vaccine shot. Only one more to go!
66. I'm just about ready to say this one is complete. I have almost fully converted to Curly Girl. I wash my hair differently, and dry it differently. It has gotten much curlier. So far this month I tried two of the recipes. I used lemon and baking soda in recipes to clean my hair. I'm just waiting to see if I can get a Deva style hair cut before I call this one complete.
70. So far I have done something outside 6 times this month.
75. I went to another local event: the Apalachin Field Days. My dad and I worked in the balloon dart booth to benefit challenger baseball.
92. I am on week 5 out of 6 of my sit ups plan. I think I may have to repeat the last two weeks a few times before I am ready to do 200 sit ups though.
94. I finished week 6/12 of my walking.
Finally: I decided to get rid of goals 38. Make a list of 100 things I want to see, and 39. See 20 of them. I took this goal from someone else's list, and it isn't really resonating with me. I still am doing the other goal of making a list of things I want to learn about. I will update when I have replacements for these goals.

Mid-May Update
First of all, I got hired as a school library media specialist for the 2010-2011 school year! That means I have completed goal number 24, which is huge to me!
Other progress:
16. A little behind on journaling this month so far. I've only done it once.
20. I finished listening to Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman, which was amazing. I'll write a review next.
37. I've watched another movie, Reign Over Me, which I have already created a post for.
42. I've really been on top of cooking new recipes. I've already tried four more from my Rocco Dispirito book:
1. Baked Onion Rings
2. Healthy Sloppy Joes, which were really good, made with turkey but still tasted just like a sloppy joe
3. Really good sweet potato fries, which had a good spicy-sweet flavor
4. Healthy Philly Cheese Steak, which I really enjoyed
44. I have been cooking at home once a week, which lets me try new recipes.
51. I visited two local businesses. I bought my mom's mothers day present from Tom's in Binghamton, and some hand lotion and candy from East of the Sun West of the Moon in Owego
66. I have gone through the Curly Girl Book and have started my conversion. I'm not going to shampoo anymore and I'm trying out a new conditioner. I have ordered towels especially designed for getting the right amount of water from curly hair, and I'm going to try some of the home remedies in the book soon.
92. I just finished week 3 of the 200 sit-up challenge
94. I just finished week 5 of my 12 week walking program

End of April Update
April wasn't super productive for me, but I did make headway on some of my goals.
16. I only journaled 2 times this month instead of five, so I'll have to try better next month.
20. Finished two more books getting my total to 6/50
24. I've been searching for jobs every week. I had an interview this month but didn't get the job, and I'm still waiting to hear back from another school district.
37. I saw a few new movies this month, which I blogged about already. My total is up to 9/26
40. I have managed to keep up with the goal of have a tv-free night once a week
42. I cooked two new recipes this month, jalapeño poppers, and Chicken Marsala, bringing my total to 4/20
44. I cooked once a week while I was at home. I went away one week during April, but other than that I've been cooking away for my family.
49. This month's date with Justin was pretty low key. We went to a flea market and then out to lunch at the Skylark diner.
61. I got the first of three shots for the HPV vaccine, so I'm on my way to completing this goal.
63. I went to my two different doctors to discuss my current medical concerns. I could check this off now, but I'm going to wait to see if I want to go back for bloodwork to see if I have rheumatoid arthritis, since I put that off at the last doctor's visit.
64. I am doing very well with my goal to find techniques for managing anxiety. I am in physical therapy for some of my physical symptoms. I've been getting more into breathing exercises and meditation. Also, the doctor gave me an herbal supplement to help. I am not going to mark this complete yet, as I'm also working on a self-help program through the book When Panic Attacks that I think will help me.
72. I recorded four more flip videos of the various birthday celebrations for my sister, bringing my total to
92. I have finished week 2 of the 200 sit up challenge program.

92. Complete the Two Hundred sit-ups challenge
I consider this goal complete when/if: I have successfully completed the two hundred sit-up training program and done 200 sit-ups in a row.
Why this is on my list: My body is pretty weak, and sit-ups will help with my core strength, which I really would like to work on right now.
This goal will be tracked by continuing to post on this blog
Goal Status: in progress (week 5/6 training)
