2015 in Review and Goals for 2016

How did I do on my goals for 2015? I did pretty well until July and then I sort of fell off the face of the world and didn't do much. I'm not really sure what happened, but I just hit a wall or something.

So without any more ado, here were my goals for 2015:

• Write at least 9000 words/month (averages to 300 words/day)
• Sculpt at least 12 babies
• Tat at least 24 crosses
• Sew at least 24 sock monkeys
• Knit 9 hats
• Exercise at least 20 days/month
• Read through at least the New Testament 

And here is how I did:

• Wrote 44,646 words (averaged about 121 words per day for the year)
• Sculpted 6 babies
• Tatted 18 crosses and 6 new flower/vine design bookmarks
• Sewed 5 sock monkeys
• Knit 14 hats
• Exercised 6 out of 12 months (20 days per month)
• Read through the New Testament and Proverbs

So some things I did more, some I did less, and some I did what I hoped for.

For 2016, I'd like to keep most of my goals from 2015, with a few changes

• Write at least 9000 words/month (averages to 300 words/day)
• Sculpt at least 12 babies
• Tat at least 12 crosses
• Sew at least 12 sock monkeys
• Knit 9 hats
• Exercise at least 20 days/month
• Read at least 5 minutes a day in the Bible, plus in devotional books
• Write up at least 4 backlog book reviews a month
• Post more than book reviews on my blog and within 2 weeks of the event I'm blogging about happened
