For the past couple of years, Annabelle and I have participated in the "xx goals for 20xx" project championed by 2 of my favorite podcasts, Happier and Happier in Hollywood. Basically, you set 18 goals for 2018, 19 goals for 2019, and now 20 for 2020. Oh, and there's also a word for the year. Last year my word was "flexibility"; this year it's "focus" (get it? 20/20 as a vision measurement?)
I have set my 20 intentions for the year, some of which are carryovers--some successful, some not--but many of which are brand new. I wanted a place to keep track of my progress on these various goals, and this blog seemed like the obvious choice. I feel a little weird to be blogging as One-Tired Mom though. I am still tired, still a mom, and still longing to learn how to ride the unicycle, but my kids have grown up and moved out on their own. In fact, now I could be called One-Tired Grandma. But this blog still feels like home to me, so I'm firing it back up for purposes of this project.
Here in alphabetical order is what I hope to accomplish before 2021 rolls around:
- 1 Second Every Day: continue for the third year
- 20 flights of stairs daily
- Curate my wardrobe and makeup collection
- Deployment: support Mike, Sarah, and Violet
- Digitize home movies and photographs
- German: Duolingo and Deutsche Welle news podcast daily for the third year
- Home improvement project: TBD
- Knitting: Finish my Irish fisherman’s sweater and make Sam’s Christmas stocking
- Learn how to use GitHub
- Learn Python
- Listen to the Washington Post’s Presidential podcast
- Organize files - paper and digital
- Read 20 books
- Read Washingtonian magazine monthly
- Sew Annabelle’s anteater PJ pants and the “trash friends” dress
- Succulent project: wreath, planter?
- Travel someplace with Fred that isn't visiting family
- Unicycle: finally learn how to ride
- Visit my parents
- Wedding: support Sam and Annabelle in planning
