52 in 52!

Rachel from And the Plot Thickens invited me to do 52 in 52 with her this year. What is this, you ask? According to Rachel, it's a mini-bucket list of sorts. Fifty-two realistic goals to complete in a year. I need to get back to blogging so I decided to join her and put this up on my blog.

Here is my list (in progress):

1. Go to Carlsbad Caverns
2. Ride in a hot air balloon
3. Stop biting my cheeks - I stopped for over a year and stress has me back at it again. I feel ashamed.
4. Read 20 books this year - I know this is an abysmal goal, but I'm starting grad school this Spring and working full-time in another city. I am just hoping to hit the 20 book mark this year.
5. Do the pottery class I bought on Groupon

6. Complete The Count of Monte Cristo Read-a-Long with Lydia from The Literary Lollipop
7. Get an A in my first grad school course
8. Take the Salesforce.com Administrator exam and pass
9. Take a vacation somewhere...a real vacation--not just a weekend away in NM somewhere
10. Take advantage of the massage Groupon that I received for my birthday

11. Do some kind of arts and crafts with my nieces
12. Start blogging again on a more regular basis
13. Buy a more comfortable bed.
14. Get a new passport.
15. Finish my unfinished books from 2011 - I have never had so many books left unfinished as I did last year. It's embarrassing.

16. Do a weekend away in New Mexico or SW Colorado.
17. Go storm chasing with my weather friend!
18. Cook five meals this year.
19. Watch one DVD Netflix movie every month.
20. Have a nice dinner with my dad.

This is a really cool idea!

We use salesforce.com at my workplace too. It's funny that it's used globally and seeing it on a book blogger blog, LOL!

You should join in and do a 52 in 52! I like Salesforce a lot. It's a pretty useful tool. I got sent to administrator training a few months ago so I need to study for the exam. They do classes for advanced administrator training in Toronto so I'm hoping my company would be open to sending me there maybe next year for advanced training if I need it. I've learned so much! We'll see how it goes. Maybe it won't be necessary for me to take the advanced class. I would just like to know more than I do now. Learn, learn, learn! I love my job. :)
That would be cool if you train in Toronto. What is your job? I'm sure you've told me but I've forgotten!

I'm definitely going to join in. It sounds like it will be fun and doable.
I love the idea! I don't think I could think of that many ideas. Maybe you'll think of more during the year. I can think of some more: try out a new recipe, go to a particular shop/store that you have been curious about (but never been to). Oh and I would definitely "buy a new item of clothing that's been bothering me"- I've got this very old dressing gown and every time I wear it, I remember I need to buy a new one and never do. Hmm, maybe I *could* make a list after all! :-)

I've done the vacation and read the 20 books. I am going to take the administrator exam very soon. I'm studying for it now. How about you? Have you completed anything on your list? I need to go in and update mine. The cheek biting I'm working on. One side is healed...the other I am still biting. So bad. I got in trouble with my hygienist at the dentist's office!
