I'm doing 42 things
I’ve been forced into beginning this goal by a 6 month grace period’s expiration. It’s a pain getting all of my loan information together, as I had multiple lenders throughout the years, leading me to believe a consolidation loan of some sort might help my unorganized self.

I have bigger and better goals now, like running a marathon. I have run a few 5ks, I’d rather train for the big one—after I get over this foot injury, that is.
Stopped this for awhile, but now that I have a lot of free time and am living with an English/Spanish speaker, I think I am going to more actively pursue this again. I’ve started listening to Linguaphone allTalk CDs, and might pick up a book on it.
