2016 in Review and Goals for 2017

2016's goals:

  • 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
So how did I do?
  • I wrote 6191 words (which is only about 516 per month)
  • I sculpted 4 clay babies
  • I tatted 3 cross bookmarks
  • I sewed 3 sock monkeys
  • I knit 4 hats
  • I exercised most days until summer and then fell off
  • I read almost every day in my Bible and a devotional book
  • I wrote 16 backlogged book reviews (I honestly forgot that I had planned on doing this!)
  • I was posting things to my blog quicker, but then got bogged down again. It seems that the more pictures I take at an event, the less likely I am to blog about it in a timely manner because I have to label/date all the pictures, then pick which ones I want to use, resize them all, and then write the blog post.
My goals for 2017:

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

  • Write at least 3000 words/month (averages to 100 words/day)
  • Sculpt at least 12 babies
  • Tat at least 6 crosses
  • Sew at least 6 sock monkeys
  • Knit 9 hats
  • Exercise at least 20 days/month
  • Read at least 1 chapter 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
