2011 is ending, yo

we only have a handful of days before 2012 is upon. word to the wise, as you get older the years really fly by....i don't like, no sir, i don't.  this year has been pretty good to me, i got a lot accomplished, had a lot of fun, became a stronger person, got a new job and have made some really fantastic friends (you know who you are, ladies)

i wanted to take a look at my year and check off my 28 things to do before 2012 list.

now i said i didn't want to hold myself to this list and i didn't but here are the things i got to check off my list!

**created new crafts: my gold rush collection & my illustrations!

**made a bike jersey for tom

**made a bike hat...actually several of them!

 **citybirds is now in 2 more shops! yippppeeeeeeeeeee!

**went roller skating and also bought a pair of matching skates!


**planted some poppies but won't know till spring if they survived the cold winter! sorry no picture and really no proof but i swear i did, i really did!

**went on 2 camping trips to the redwoods, oh how i miss you!!! you can read about them here & here

 bought a new digital camera, we love you!

i think i did pretty well, there are a couple more i am still going to check off, like go to the renegade craft fair & make a bike tool kit, which hopefully i can show you next week.

i am making a new list for 2012 is here but i want to make it a bit more project orientated and throw in a few more fun adventures for me and tom to go on.

if you made a list how did you do?

    Well done! You had some lovely goals for 2011 :)

    I've done 9 out of my 15 New Year's Resolutions from last year! I'm going to write a post about them in the next few days I think.

    Im still wicked jealous of those sweet roller skates. I should really make a list too. I think it would help me prioritize my agenda. Item one: dance party with you :)

    I like your list... I didn't do resolutions last year because I never finish them, but there's no harm in making lists of things you hope to do! So I think I might do this for 2012...

    Also, we have the same camera. It is awesome.

    well done you! I like how you formatted it for the calendar year instead of by your birthday (unless you're a New Years baby and I'm unaware!;)

    What a fantastic list! I have a list that I made around my birthday to hopefully accomplish by my next birthday. I still have a couple more things I need to add to the list though! Having goals is such a wonderful thing! And to look back and see what was accomplished is such a great feeling.

    You rock! You got so much accomplished. I should make a similar list for 2012. Last year my new year's resolution was to learn to cook and I had that one tackled by March so now I have to think up something good for 2012.

    I've tried to make bike hats a couple different times, but they always turn out too big or wonky...did you use a pattern or have any hot tips?
