I'm so excited to get started with this challenge this year! I plan on coming back every Sunday then again at the end of the month with updates. 

Hope everyone has fun ticking off their lists!

I must make a list so I can note down the progress towards it, but I'm waiting on an organiser to be delivered!

@suzeesu2000 Love the idea on 24 new outfits! I must admit as I work from home I'm constantly in Jeans or joggers, so I totally get where you're coming from.

Mad isnt it? I have a wardrobe full of beautiful clothes and I never wear them! On the positive side, at least they arent being worn out!

Okay. How do you keep track of items with multiple steps or ideas? How do you post how you are doing - weekly, monthly? Do you do spread sheets or just a list and mark them off as they are completed. I understand about putting 1/24 after the entry when you have finished one step on it, 2/24 when you finish the second, and so on. But what is the best way to keep track  of things like" learn 24 "old school" ways of doing everyday things? Can you post some suggestions for this as it sounds intriguing? I have started a file in excel. For the items which involve listing what I have done, I have started a separate sheet for those with a list or where I want to go, read, or do, so I can remember. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I use Onenote so I have a page for each item and then list them as I complete them along with the running total, like this. I also log them in a section within my bullet journal so I have it to look back on and there's more detail on things, such as what I've learnt etc.

I know previously, people have used notebooks, excel etc. I just think you need to go with whatever works for you.
