How I did it
How to gET NEW SHOES...and a couple of other things
It took me
1 day
It made me

How I did it: We went to the mall and tried on a few affordable pairs at every store.  Then we went back and purchased the ones that fit best.  I ended up getting a rockin' deal on mine and only paid $60 for two pairs of shoes! Read how I did it…

How to do these five things today:
It took me
2 months
It made me
organized

How I did it: Found five things I needed to do each day, and then tried really really hard to do them.  Not everything gets done all of the time, but I'm not wandering aimlessly anymore either.  Sometimes I had to find weird things to reach 5 things, and after a while, I started counting weekends as one big day.

How to take in my bike for a tune-up and gear-replacement
It took me
2 days
It made me
happy!

How I did it: A co-worker of mine is married to a bicycle repairman. They needed their computers worked on and anti-virus installed, so we traded...and it worked beautifully.  We've got it set up next time they need work on the computers, I get apples and flower bulbs from the garden.

Babysit a hyper-active 2-year-old kid who has no fear and thinks she’s a monkey for a day. That’s exercise.

learn asp.net by re-building the website at work
Sad, but true... 6 days ago

I’ve been all but banned from doing this, so I’m going to have to give up this goal. Office politics are tricksy. They’ve got me fixing (not upgrading) VB6.0 code instead. I had to find and set up an outdated Win98 computer just to get the code to open!! Dear me!
