1. 105 new recipes

For my 30 before 30 project I cooked over 100 new recipes in one year (my goal was 30!) It was so inspiring to cook new recipes and I miss that motivation!

Cozy Hummus Bowl

3. A Weekly Effort

I want to put some thought into my personal style and some effort in every week. This sounds vague, but one week I was feeling particularly down, so I put a pretty basic effort into my appearance every day, took a selfie, felt more put together, got more done in general. I think stuff like this helps a lot when you work from home.

5. Finish 5 TV Shows

Not locking myself down to anything specific! We're always working on a few and I have let a few stagnate while I rewatch TNG over and over again.

7. Keep my Patreon up to date!

Obviously I'm allowed to take little breaks, but with all the new projects I have planned for the next two years, I don't want to fall behind on my Patreon! I really like using it as the one central location to get to everything I make and do.

9. Scan my Mom's family photos

This is a leftover from my 30 before 30. :(

I made progress! But there's still so much to do. I want to make a page on my site to share the photos, too, so that my mom can share them on Facebook now that I have deactivated mine.

11. Save some money?

That'd be nice.

13. Play more Video Games

I had a good video game summer, but usually I'm just so behind on the new games by the time I get to them everyone's moved on to the next!

Two-Hundred & Eighty-Three

15. Let myself shoot film again! (even though I don't have it all developed yet)

I would love to shoot a roll of film every month again, but I feel guilty about never getting it developed. Tentatively start this in 2019-2020 and maybe I will have gotten #14 done by then, too!

17. Monthly Date Night

We do this anyway and I could use an easy, happy goal right about now. :)

I love the things I love and I get anxious about new places. I LOVE to eat new foods, though.

Then find the next thing to get better at listening and speaking comprehension.

33. Work on a quilt of all our favorite old crummy t-shirts

It's a thing to do with them.

35. Shoot a day in photos on my 35th birthday

Tradition!

2. Bullet Journal 2019

I loved my hand drawn layouts in my last bullet journal, but I gave myself a break with a more traditional planner in 2018. I'm ready to start back up in 2019!

4. Saturday Movie Nights

I have anxiety about certain kinds of media consumption. Like most of my anxiety I can't explain it in a logical way, and of course, I would like to overcome it. Watching new movies (rather than rewatching old favorites) is sometimes tough for me. I do very well with plans and schedules, though, so when I know something is coming up I'm prepared for it. I know, I'm talking about getting up the nerve to watch a movie! Anxiety is a silly asshole, sometimes.

6. Edit 1 NaNoWriMo Novel

I have 8 or 9 first drafts to draw from, after all.

10. Take Breaks

I do have to schedule this or it will only happen when I burn out. I have short list of what this might mean, weekends away, that sort of thing.

12. Get caught up on video editing and stay on top of it!

I would be happy just to make some progress!

14. Get 30 before 30 film developed

I shot a roll of film every month for a year before I turned 30 and I still haven't gotten it developed. It'd be cool to do that BEFORE I TURN 35.

16. Plan my summers better!

We'll probably be in Virginia again next year, or somewhere else, and I wish I had felt able to do more tourist things. I really want to see DC but I couldn't get up the nerve.

August 25, 2018- August 24, 2019. Remember what it feels like to create when I feel like it.

I'd like to have the concept art done, anyway. Very basic. Nothing has to be finished!

32. Run another Tabletop game campaign

Ah, I would love for this to happen. There's so many I want to run. There's so many I want to play! Timing hasn't been great for it in a while and I miss it a lot.
