I try to set goals for myself each year. Some people call it their life list but I view my list as something that will grow with me and as a result my goals will change. Last year it was to skydive which I did in September. This year I am going to try to accomplish a bit more. I do not want to list to get to an unmanageable size though because that would defeat the purpose of setting goals. maybe if they are written down I will be more likely to do them. We will see.
1. Compete in a Sprint triathlon - Signed up for the Silverlake Sprint Triathlon
2. Buy a Digital SRL camera
3. Start revisiting my passion of photography
4. Be more proactive when it comes to socializing/making friends - Working on it
5. Take a knife skills training class - Hubby and I took class April 14th

10. Get a group together for a paintball game - I have always wanted to do this

I think this is a good list for 2009. I am going to think of it as a work in progress. Hopefully I will be adding to it and not taking away from it. I wish now that I had started a blog earlier because it would help me see what I accomplished in 2008. The only things that really stand out are:
1. Traveled to London, Norway, Denver, New York, San Antonio, New Orleans, Austin, Las Vegas, South Padre and Dallas
3. Started a new job in February 2008
4. Went skydiving for the first time.
