1. A substantially-sized bookshelf in my bedroom. I have yet to find The Perfect One. It seems to me that such a one would be a Bookshelf-Desk-Combo, but I do not know. As I said; I have yet to discover such a thing. I'm keeping an eager eye on thrift stores and such.
2. A position at the hospital. I would really like to start doing my vocation more. It kind of stinks to be learning one thing at school and practicing another at work.
3. Better management of my resources. This one is rather tedious and too like a New Year's Resolution, so we'll say it's so self-explanatory that anything further on the subject would constitute redundancy. End.
4. Survive nursing school - that is, Pass the next two semesters and in-between summer-sessions. This is a pretty big one - and also self-explanatory. I would prefer for my financial affairs and general State of Dignity to remain intact while doing so, but of course those are secondary to General Survival.
5. Visit Jenny and Abigail. Actually, I would like to visit as many TLC folk as I may, but realistically speaking I will probably only get one trip in for my own amusement, and seeing as how things are falling that will probably mean Jenny and Abigail.
6. See Libby graduate. This is somewhat in conjunction with the likelihood of 5, but not altogether so. Anyway. Yeah.
7. Visit Mutti for her birthday. It may take some schedule-manipulation and a skipped class (the horror!) but I mean to do everything in my power to succeed at this one.
8. Convince Dani to pierce her ears. Said event cannot take place until Summer of 2012, but it's never too soon to begin Persuasive Measures.
9. Conduct a Harry Potter film marathon, culminating with the second part Deathly Hallows. Because sometimes, you just have to be a nerd.
10. Find my recipe book and make a batch of chocolate mousse for Missy. (In case you haven't noticed, not all of these are Grand and Universally-Significant.)
11. Translate a book from my Greek New Testament.
12. Start an IV - for real.
13. Get my wimpy self to run thirty minutes, nonstop, on a regular basis.
14. Read through my vast supply of Puritan Paperbacks, including those that are on the Reread list.
15.Write letters. Lots and lots of letters. I have several hundred blank cards waiting to be used. And if I go bankrupt on stamps, at least it's a more dignified way to go than, say, silly bands.
16. Finish writing ol' Barnabas.
17. Write my Tea Story.
18. Rewrite Manaqua.
19. Start taking pictures again.
20. Wash my car - and find a Frog Air Freshener to be Horatio Hornblower and complete my collection. Yeah. I saved the really important one for last.
Since when did you like Harry Potter?
And oh, I do hope you can come visit us! I shall be most Put Out if you can't.
