In my case I've got a grid set up in a note book so I can cross a square off each time I do one of my chosen action's/ aim's.

I'm making 20 lists - I want to have hard copy rather than on the computer, so I don't necessarily have to switch the computer on.

Went back to op when writing cards to gain the notebooks I bought the children and mum to use of they want to take part and record their twenties. Op makes clear these should be fun lists rather than resolutions. Am thinking some of mine were returning to resolution territory so am revising some. I have now added 20 different flavours of ice cream :P

I'm out of touch! I didn't know there were that many flavours of icecream…….. I must investigate the freezer section for inspiration for when the warmer weather comes back.

Hi everyone
Im still refining my list as I can block a few together, its going well. I have been writing them down in a notebook with a couple of lines /columns underneath each one, so for example
days out- I can record date and where I went, so I can recall where Ive been and when
Im putting the £20 in an old savings account £2 and £1 coins in a tin, so I will record them so I know how its going.
20 books, dvds/films again it will be date and titles so I don't watch read twice.
etc etc
I just want to keep a record of how things are going.
