A new year and plans, as always, are on the go. Really though I blame my brain and its obsessive need to try and have order when chaos is generally its normal state. Split personality anyone?
Still I love me a good plan and even better a good list or any list really...
Reading
Always on the list. Always reading. Which should pretty much be my motto. Or at the very least on a t-shirt.
As for the reading itself it's business as usual with me trying (and so far succeeding)to keep my To Be Read pile under some kind of control. Beside that I'd like to increase my non-fiction and audio book reads and maybe my graphic novel reading too.
Gardening
Lots and lots of plans. As always. This year I'm super pleased that I've managed to grow some veggies over the summer and I'd really want to expand on that. On the list to try growing this year are:
- Pumpkins
- Watermelons
- Beans and peas
- Garlic
- Blueberries
- Feijoas
- Apricots
- Rhubarb
- Sunflowers
As well as more tomatoes, strawberries, corn and carrots.
I'm really keen to try 'lasagna gardening' which is a layering method of cardboard, compost, straw and mulch which makes not so good soil into really good soil. Perfect for growing lots of fruit and veg.
Get Fit and Get Healthy
Well the gardening will certainly help with this. Along with getting back into walking and yoga, both of which I've been a bit slack about doing for the past month.
Crafting
With freezing winters where we live this is an easy winter task to do. More knitting, maybe a big blanket for my bed. In pink of course. And I'm keen to try making a pom pom rug and also some loom knitting.
101 Things in 1001 Days
Definitely want to cross a few more things off this list so that's something I'm going to be concentrating on this winter.
Watching
Time consuming but easy to do. Maybe I can knit and watch at the same time and cross 2 things off the plan list? Sounds like a plan right there.
I'd like to do a few more (make that a lot more) Letterboxd reviews and also get back into my Supernatural binge watching. Though it's been so long since I've done any I'm just going to have to start at the beginning again.
Writing
Like my reading this is always on the list. This year the aim is to post 50 blog posts AND do some actual writing. The kind with words and characters and a story.
We can but hope.
