I completely forgot to review this but this year, to put it really mildly, did NOT go according to plan. Which was fine, more than fine, but I'm so interested to review this now so without further ado...
1. Go to Scotland and London. Nailed it! Loved it. Would do Scotland differently next time, but completely fell in love with London, which when I flew was a place I was meh about at best.
2. Spear fishing in Belize. Went regular fishing in Belize. Caught a fish. So, nailed it?
3. Take Owen to see our cousins in Boston/NH. We had the BEST time. Currently vascillating between
going somewhere else or just making this an annual thing.
4. Astros road game in California. Did it and it was awesome.
5. Find a cleaning lady and lawn people. Best ever. Got rid of subpar cleaning people and found the best lady
ever. Our lawn guy is everything. This freed up so much time this year for both of us.
6. Ride 5000 miles on my Peloton. I haven't looked but I'm certain I did not do this. However, I didn't anticipate
buying a tread and going back to work full time. Overall, I'm fine with where I ended up in fitness.
7. Hit the 1000 ride milestone. Again, circumstances changed. I'll likely hit 700 shortly after the new year and I'm
totally cool with this.
8. Lose the 15 lbs that I gained in 2018 (I hate that this is on my to do list but it must be done.) Lost and
gained the same 5 lbs at least 6 times this year. My diet self-discipline blows.
9. Get my Bar Method Century socks. This is sad but I did not.
10. Save 20% for retirement. Again, this plan got foiled for reasons. I need to figure out my retirement
vehicle for 2020.
11. Read 20 books. (God, that is so lame. I better do it. I will read on the bike if I have to.) Oops. I lost count at
maaaaybe 6. Crap.
12. Three quarters fruits/veggies with my meals. Yeah. No.
13. Either go to or plan a Hawaii trip when SW finally gets it together to fly there. Not sure where we'll land on
this goal. It's not convenient to go from here but I hope we get there soon.
14. At least one date night or day date a month. I think we got awfully close to this, but mainly via trips.
It's a mixed bag - Owen is awesome and we have no issue taking him anywhere with us. I'm hoping that
we can be more deliberate about Houston date nights in 2020.
15. Do some work to make joining the PTO easier for people and create a FB group for existing members.
OMG. This goal makes me want to cry. I wound up with way more than this on my plate and it's been
sheer survival mode.
16. Two summer staycations. We wound up doing one in the spring, one in the summer and one at Christmas
time so I'm not mad at missing this one by a hair.
17. Work on being a better listener, especially when talking to people with different beliefs than me. I think I have
really made good strides on this one!
18. Continue to work on letting go of the things I can't change. More serenity prayer. Less road rage. I think
I have less road rage? I don't know, I am lucky and I live in a tiny bubble and drive very rarely but I
still get pissed when people are rude drivers so maybe this one is a no?
19. Make a decision on Big International Trip 2020 for our 10 year anniversary! I think we landed on Germany!
