    1. Use the Est** L*uder perfume and body lotion daily - this is happening and cheering me up a LOT :T
    2. Finish the boxes on the Winnie the Pooh Calendar stitching - done :beer:
    3. Finish one more colour on the needlepoint - done :j
    4. Lose 7 lb in weight - 6 lb gone :beer:
    5. Wear make up three times - not yet 2/3 hopefully the 3rd will this week :p

    Okay I haven't managed to do much recently but I did manage to do a bit of knitting today, I reckon if I do a little bit of something every day I will soon get back on track with my crafting, the house and my debt removal ;)

    For my plans for next year I have mainly put down crafty stuff, with some looking after me stuff but NO debt busting, if I don't have a target I won't get upset if I am not sticking to it (and then going backwards because I'm upset, which happened with stress this year!), but I do want to get it all dealt with quickly! :o
    Must use my stash up!

    I love the way you number your goals, KnitWitch :) I hope you get to the full "done" figure by this time next year :)

    1. Read 216 books (151/216) - well ahead of target with this

    2. Read the Inspector Morse books (11/13) - likewise with these

    3. Finish stitching Medieval Dog - nope, need to have a concerted go at this

    4. Start stitching Medieval Rabbit - nope, this doesn't get started until the other is finished

    5. Finish Winnie the Pooh year (0/12) - way behind on this!

    6. Start stitching Map of Cambridgeshire - again dependent on the other cross stitch being done

    7. Finish small Crewelwork piece - very nearly there

    8. Get knitting done to over half way - made a muck up of this and need help to sort it out

    9. Knit 13 sampler squares (2/13) - errr, ooops!

    10. Knit a cowl - this is going quite well!

    11. Go to a Clinique counter and get my skin assessed! - not yet

    12. Wear make up 26 times (8/26) - hmm a bit behind on this one

    13. One day get to 2,000 steps (this one will be tricky) - best I have managed is 1872

    14. Do 13 new recipes (9/13) - ahead of the game on this as well

    15. Have a facial and back massage - booked for mid June

    16. Blog weekly (or more often if possible) (17/52) - in between my various blogs I am on track with this

    Not been keeping up with this thread as my mood has been so down, but the better weather means better mood and I hope to get on with lots and lots of stuff! (including debt busting which due to the aforementioned depression has gone backwards :o)

    Follow on from my previous post, I can tell my depression/anxiety has got really bad again as my finances are in a pit! I have been wasting money on Faceache games :mad:

    Time to pick myself up by the proverbial bootstraps and turn this back around!
