2018 Goals: Wrap Up

Lol what even was this year. I’m pretty sick, so the only goals I accomplished are ones I was able to do from my bed.

1. Hike Every Trail in Umstead: 43%

Oh yeah, I did nothing on this between now and the last time we talked. I am WAY out of shape and would not trust myself to make it out of the woods. Honestly, I get dizzy on light walks with Olivia now.

This is all I did

2. Learn to Juggle: 5%
I’m giving myself a few points for actually buying juggling balls and watching some tutorials. But I can’t juggle. I want to be a person who can juggle, but not enough to actually put in any effort. This was the stretch goal.

3. Review every book I read on GoodReads: 100%

All 177 of them


This is definitely a habit now, so I hope I will continue it!

4. Send everyone in my penpal club a birthday postcard: 58%
Yeah, I gave up after 7 months and 184 postcards. Respectable, still.

5. Give to a different charity once a month: 67%
Literally forgot I was supposed to be doing this. Sorry, charities. It is back to haphazard, spur of the moment donations for me.

6. Cook or discard everything in my recipe binder: 100%
Despite being pretty incapable of eating most foods, I somehow managed to complete this goal? Probably because I threw away A LOT of recipes, but the binder is cleaned up, and that’s what matters.

7. Make Pageapalooza a Success: 100%
Wow, the secret to padding these things is making a goal that will end before the halfway point in the year.

Total: 68%

More than half! I’m kind of shocked. Sure, I only advanced 1 percentage point from the last update in August, but considering I spent MOST of those 4 months lying on the floor in pain, it’s surprising I managed to do anything else at all. It’s been a shitty year, friends.

Previously: 2/3 of the way there
Next: 2019 goals -or- Aim Low
