How about a Twelve Things to Do by 2012 list?
Okay, I'll try that.
Finish my first year at JoAnn Fabrics. (Already 10.5 months into that, but I'll put it on here anyway.)Have my green bike fixed. Again. (Popped a tire last fall and haven't gotten around to replacing it. Constantly wishing I had it to ride, though)- Learn to ride the unicycle. (I had my very first lesson tonight, and I have to say it went...so-so. Did you know you can fall 360 directions off a unicycle? Yep, mhm, you can. And I have a tire-burn on the inside of my right knee.)
- Wean myself off Facebook for 1 day a week. Or maybe just check it once on that day. (that'll be my Blogging Only day, so I get some more posts up here!)
- Go to one or two more concerts. (Preferably 3. Downhere would be great, or I hear that Michael W. Smith is doing a FREEEEE one in Milwaukee in August! Maybe if I can't go to the family reunion that weekend, if my boss doesn't give me those days off, I'll rustle up a group to go there.)
- Take an art class maybe. That would mean buckling down and Actually Doing some Artwork, but I might be able to manage that.
- Teach my brother math. (He's 4th grade, and Mom had me helping the past couple months with his math work, but then school kinda trickled off for the summer.)
- Make a snow sculpture like THIS one, only different.
- Start making small items to sell on Etsy, and have an Etsy shop set up by this time next year. (I know that's been my goal for a few years now, but maybe I'll actually do it this time?)
Take a bike trip to the Hill of No Return on my green bike. (It's super-steep, and has railroad tracks and a near-right-angle turn at the bottom. How much more danger can this girl handle? Rhetorical question.)- Plan my Twenty Trip. (When my sister & parents had to go to Las Vegas for her college course, they promised that they'd take each of the rest of us on a trip when we turned twenty. Well, guess how old I'll be next March? Um, yeah, that's a bit scary....)
Go swimming once or twice.
I might change it up some between now and 2012, but that's what I have right now. I challenge readers of this blog to do the same--find 12 things you want to do before twenty-twelve, and blog about them!

Hey here is my other new blog link for you!!!http://thewondersofchrist.blogspot.com/
LOL! love the picture in this post! :)
Yes. You're poor little blog needs attention.
I want to see Michael W. Smith. Take me with you!! We should totally go see Sanctus Real, too. That's in October.
How can you not like I Refuse? It is such a good song! I guess I don't get tired of it as quickly because I do not listen to the radio all that often (usually only in the car) and when I do, it's not always Christian radio.
I don't remember if I'd seen Stellar Kart before Saturday or not. I should keep a list of the people I have seen live. Just so I can say, "Hey, I've seen you, I'm cool. Yeah." :P
Stellar Kart did sing Kiss the Girl and Part of Your World. It was AWESOME.
I looooove Brian (the bassist?) He was so fun.
I recognized, like, two Disciple songs but I didn't really see their concert, I had a hotdog while they were playing but I got back in time for their Dear X song. I kind of like it but I am not a real big fan.
Have you ever seen Jars of Clay? The lead singer is so fun to watch because he is so dramatic. It was so funny. He was singing Dead Man (yay!) and freaking out about this imaginary body on the stage. It was awesome.
They sang Work, which I had never heard before, but I've added it to my list of good songs.
Yes, a thousand times yes. That ride was not worth it. Matthew West was awesome. He did not repeat that Justin Beiber gig that I've heard so much about. I was disappointed.
10th Avenue North was nice. I liked their concert a lot! The leader singer rocked. He sweat more than anybody else. He sweat so much that his shirt could have been wrung out. He was dripping. It was amazing. And really gross.
I know that looks aren't everything, Laura, I'm just saying. They look homeless. Except for the fact they're are people everywhere catering to their every want and whim.
They were pretty swell, I liked their concert. They sang Gone, my favorite Switchfoot song. It's my favorite because the bridge cracks me up.
I did not get everything done. I only have completed "breakfast" and only just starting the dishes when Andy showed up at the front door.
FYI you can download an addon to Firefox called Leechblock. It blocks you from visting any sites you specify and it's totally customizable. It's really helpful.
For example, I told mine to only allow me a 60 minutes on facebook each day and to block me from getting on it at all before 9 in the morning and after 8 at night.
You can even give it a password so that if you can't get on for another hour but are experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms and you want to override your settings you'll have to type in something like deoxyribonucleic acid.
An etsy shop is super easy to set up! It only took me a few minutes except for the logo part.
