I'm excited to get started with this one, and I think I may follow suit of some others and record my efforts in a notebook/journal of some sort.

I do believe I'm there

haha 2 days more to tweak, right?
1) 'read 20 classics' i have changed at dd1's suggestion to 20 books recommended to me.
I have realised that I have done quite a good job of decluttering this year and what's really challenging me is a shed load of paper (well several boxes / drawers / laundry baskets as i don't have a shed but you know what i mean) so I've changed 2020 items to 2020 minutes decluttering
18) 'walk 2020km'. my fitbit died a death (it was rather old) and i have decided not to buy a new one. so instead I am going to bake bread 20 times

If you have a smartphone you could use the str@va app or something similar to track distance.
