Goals for 29: Part One

Hi there!
Well, I've been talking about my goals list for 29 and I thought I'd share them with you guys since you seemed interested. :) I think this list will be a work in progress because I hate "closing" a list and then thinking of something AMAAAAZING. So. For the time being we will call this: Goals 1.0 ...



-Start my own massage practice.

-Learn Tai Chi.

-If it's within a 25 mile round trip... bike it. (Not including longer recreational riding.)



-Take more pictures.

-Get rid of the stuff in my garage that I don't need.

-Design 5 new products this year.

-Race in the Cross Crusade cyclocross series this fall.

-Find an organization I believe in and volunteer my time with them.

-Have 3 months of living expenses in savings by May 2010. (Maybe this DIY tutorial could help me!)



-Go on one epic summer road trip.

-Wear sunscreen. Always.



-Paint the collection you've been dreaming about the last 2 years.

-Take that dressmaking class.

-Learn how to silkscreen.

-Climb the South Sister again.



-Face fear head on.




Well there it is! I'll keep you guys updated on my progress throughout this next year. I think the hardest one to accomplish will be getting money to stay in my savings account. (Eeek, too many cute dresses to buy!) What is one thing you would like to accomplish this year? I'd love to hear it! Have a wonderful week guys!

Cute music.

Hey you crazy kids!

Well I'm in between moving loads of all my shtuff back and forth. Ugh, moving sucks. ;) What I've realized is that I have accumulated WAYYYYY too much stuff for one girl to possess. Anyhow. This is not why I'm blogging. I totally stumbled across the cutest song ever and had to share it with you guys!

www.ourstage.com


She sang at a wedding I went to in Portland last year and her voice is totally amazing. Anyways, if you write a song about coffee, fixed gear bikes, beards and Portland, I promise to post it too. ;)

xoxo peeps, gotta go move more stuff. Gah!
