How I did it
How to trace my family tree back at least 6 generations
It took me
1 year
It made me
Pedigreed

How I did it: Mostly internet research, some previous research from my mother and grandmother.  Now that I have all the facts straight I feel complelled to dig deeper into the lives of my ancestors and find out who they REALLY wee, not just what their names were.  The facts are great, but its the touching stories that will make them family. Read how I did it…

How to read one book per week all year
It took me
360 days
It made me
Accomplished

How I did it: I work at a book store so finding the books was easy.  Sometimes they were quick reads and sometimes it took a while to wade through, but I did finish 52 books.  Some were simply good time wasters and some taught me a fe wgood lessons. Read how I did it…

lay in the grass and stare at the clouds
bunnies, and dragons 2 years ago

Its more about making time to sit back and relax than just looking at the clouds. A little time to lie back and let your imagination take over all the daily stress and planning. Personally, I suggest dragging out a friend for this task. Everyone has a differnet idea of what shape the cloud is trying to convey, and the giggles will do you good!

Personally, we both thought this one looked like Angels Wings.

Smile more for no reason
Smiling 2 years ago

With all the changes going on in my life this year, I thought this one would be the hardest. Instead, its been the simplest. After I got rid of all the drama accumulating day to day, the smiles came naturally. Once I got to slow down enough to look at the sunrise, or pretty flowers on the roadside, smiles are my new normal look.

ask for help when i need it, and accept help when it's offered
The Opossum 2 years ago

One day I simply came to the realization that I CAN’T o everything myself all the time and its silly of me to keep trying just to prove my independence. lol I had to ask a friend how to get an opossum out of my basement. Which turned after that task was accomplished, to may other jobs I hadn’t quite started around the house. As he offered to help, instead of saying my normal, no I’ll get it eventually, I said ok!
Yes, I probably can still do these things myself, but letting others help you saves time, gives you a reason to hang out with friends, and makes them feel better because they have helped you. Hard habit to start, but highly recomended.
