STATUS ON 2019 GOALS
Summary:
Looks like I did great on boosting my morale and doing small projects, grades A+ and B
I did ok not great on organizing and socializing, grade C
I made progress on one large project; the other two were not really even started, grade D
Room for improvement in 2020:
Write goals I want to do and not just say I have done.
Perhaps define better those large projects or break into sub goals
Morale boosters 6 out of 6 – A+

You had a very productive (and fun!) year with a varied set of accomplishments. Your goals and review of them remind me of annual work reviews (it's that time again for me!). Even though you've been retired for almost seven years, you still have that ingrained in you. I look forward to see what you create in 2020!
ReplyDeleteSounds like 2019 was the year with a little bit of everything!!! A's Halloween pillowcases are still on her bed, and she loves that llama skirt. I will forever associate the memory of those cowboy dolls with traveling to D&Cs from OK, and having Autumn totally melt down because she wanted the ones *without* the safety pins. Ah, sleep deprivation and childhood. Isaiah loves all those hats you made (oh, so many hats!) and although he's grown out of them now, I know Wyatt got a lot of use from those burp cloths between February and the end of summer.
