I’ve been following Lara and Sara, and now Vicky while they post their lists of things they need to accomplish, things they’ve been meaning to accomplish for a while. I have a list, and it would be great to have some place to track it, update it and to put things as I remember them, so here we are. Not all of these are of major importance and I will be adding more as I go along (and some of things are things that I’m reminding Joe to do):
Fix up the bikes so we can actually ride this summer
Get a ticket for the Social Capital Conference
Arrange a date night (with babysitter)
Organize a book swap in Ottawa – July 31 at the Elmdale Tavern, 2-5 pm A smashing success, we have to do it again
See Harry Potter
Weed the garden (started by Joe)
Knit a shawl for my mother (in progress)
Knit a sweater for Joe (in progress, but barely)
