- Use the food you froze.
- Remember that after the kids are in bed, you don't JUST have to sit in front of the tv.
- Learn a new card game and teach the family.
- Construct a raised bed that can be covered in cold weather.
- Grow some crazy assed greens in the raised beds. (And if nobody likes them, just give it to the chickens.)

- Remember people's birthdays.
- Keep up the nearly daily meditation.

- Get a new sewing machine.
- Learn about the new sewing machine.

- Plan out and execute the back garden thoughtfully with Michael.
- Ski at EVERY SINGLE OPPORTUNITY.
- Bike to work at least two times a week, when the season begins.
- Make a dress for myself.
- Create a more comfortable home: rip up the last of the fetid carpet, re-finish unexpected 100 year old pine floor boards, paint bedrooms, make colorful bits to throw around, macrame some plant holders, keep plants alive.
- Get a Christmas letter and/or cards out before January 10.
- Make my friends a priority.
- Create our ultimate budget so I can be done with paper pushing in 2 more years.

- Call brother more often.
- Give Skype a jingle.
- Transfer all digital photos to a safe place so I can sleep easily at night.
- Figure out if I an afford a marvelous dslr and what my knight in shining digital photography would look like. (Would my old 35 mm Nikon lenses fit a Nikon dslr? Hmmm)
- Jump into our Disneyland and Joshua Tree vacation with utter gusto and wear crazy outfits the whole damn time. (I bought a leopard print skirt already. I'm on my way.)
- Hmmm, working on other ideas!
