Now, let's try this again. After contemplating and looking over the post I written, 2012: It's Going To Be Different, I decided that I was being unfair to myself. I had made a list of things that I KNEW that I was going to accomplish. The things on the list, especially dealing with purchasing items were out of the question. It was inevitable. Those things on my list weren't going to take all year to accomplish. Granted, I still have my 101 in 1001 list that I started on April 19, 2010. I guess I wanted to feel as if I accomplished something, and what better way than to put things that you were going to accomplish in the first place. Get me?
Let's be real... there was no way that I was going to sell my current DSLR. It was my first one, and just simply cannot part with it. I've named it Jeff. We simply have had too many memories together.
So, I'm going to start back what I did last year and make several goals that I wanted to accomplish before the season is over. This has seemed to work for me when I did it in Summer 2011 and Fall 2011. Before we know it, it is going to be winter for a month. It sure doesn't feel like winter, when it is 50 to 60 degrees outside and sunny. I'm making this list sort of late, considering winter began on December 21. I'm only going to have until March 20 to accomplish these goals, so here we go.

1. Buy a new DSLR
2. Organize the guest bedrooms
3. Unveil my announcement on the blog
4. Continue getting rid of items that I do not need.
5. Have a blog sale for items that I am planning on getting rid of.
6. Drink at least a glass of water daily.
7. Blog daily, including the weekends.
8. Take 3,000 pictures.
9. Keep up with Project 365, or should I say Project 366.
10. Try to reply to comments, on the day that I get them.
11. Clean my car out
12. Make a gallery wall.
13. Try to not care what people think of me and to disregard people's negativity.
14. Be more patient. Something I am totally not.
15. Do at least fifteen fashion posts.
16. Organize the bookshelves.
17. Put photos into all my picture frames.
18. Send out thank you cards. (It's now been 7 months. It's that the thought that counts)
Pretty attainable, right? I'll be posting an update at the end of this month to track the progress.
I've got this.

start with the thank you letters - you will feel so much better once those aren't hanging around your head!
and, an annoucement?! oh la la!
Awesome list! I want to make a gallery wall too!
I love that you divide your goals up by seasons. I didn't think about doing that. I also used to have a 101 in 1001 list, but decided that my wants/goals/desires changed too much and I ended up making it one year, and smaller, and thus 52 in 52 began! =)
But, I am thinking about making a new seperate list for my short term goals like you =)
Good luck!!
Sending you sunshine,
Rachael
Good goals :) You can do them def!
Do you really not drink a glass a water a day? lady!! thats horrible. I have like 20.
Great goals! :)
I love the idea of getting these done by March. I'm with Krystal, I say tackle the thank you cards first!
I totally understand your logic with making a REAL list. I've done it before where I put things on my lists that I know I'm going to accomplish, but I'm glad you were honest and made a new list :) Can't wait to read about your progress.
Just found your blog through Her Southern Charm, I'll definitely be your newest follower!
