How I did it
How to make my own organic cleaning products.
It took me
8 months
It made me

How I did it: I scoured websites, which I included links on my entries.  I picked a few "recipes" to make, gathered the ingredients, started concocting them, and got into the habit!I no longer buy any glass cleansers, countertop cleaners, or laundry detergent.I'm not sure how long this actually took me.  I just know that I didn't want to mark this as done until I repeatedly made my own detergent and cleaners. Read how I did it…

How to go indoor skydiving
It took me
7 days
It made me
laugh out loud!

How I did it: This isn't complicated.  I just called and made a reservation.  I did have a groupon discount that I had purchased earlier this year, and I definitely recommend getting one of those.  Read how I did it…

How to take my kids to Disneyland
It took me
3 months
It made me
Happy

How I did it: This is one of those things that anyone can do and there are so many ways, it's hard to really give advice about what to choose - meaning hotels, booking, etc.I have some tips about after getting into the park down below though. :) Read how I did it…

Read 50 books in 2011 (read all 32 entries…)
Marking this as....over

Unfortunately, with my increased workload, this goal took a backseat.

Regardless, I have to say that 30+ books read in a year is something of which I can hold my head high and be proud.

I’m swamped at work…still. So, maybe another year but certainly not this one! haha.

For the record, I DID accomplish this a couple years ago. :)

Swim with dolphins (read all 2 entries…)
Carpe diem

I started thinking more about this. Why wait? Maybe I’ll do this in 2012 at Discovery Kingdom…and then again when I can afford a vacation to other destinations. :)

give away 50 things I don't need (read all 4 entries…)
More stuff

Dropped a couple boxes off at Goodwill.
Gave a huge bag of clothes and shoes to a friend for her son.
Donated our “old” electronics for recycling

I’m going to mark this as complete. I’m sure I’ve donated over 50 things….and I don’t plan to stop. :)
