Here in Idaho

To-do in 2008.

Now that it’s 2008, I suppose I should revise my to-do list. This time I’m going to focus on what I want to do this year, which certainly changes things up a bit. I heart lists.

Also, this list belongs on the page entitled “Kristi’s Big To-Do.” But I couldn’t get it on that page. For that, you’ll have to wait until my husband gets home from work. Computers scare me.

take skiing lessons
visit Glacier National Park
go to Texas
invest in the stock market
try cross-country skiing
finish The Palace Sweeper
write for money. For someone. Anyone. Except Playboy. Unless they asked nicely.
buy a freezer for the garage (don’t ask)
begin buying meats/fruits/vegetables from local farmers
finish my granny square afghan
buy a timeshare for future vacation taking purposes
get a little bit greener
start a second volunteer project with the kids
ride in a hot air balloon
take a class
renew my driver’s license so that it reflects that I live in Idaho, not Texas.
do the yoga daily
read Hard Times, David Copperfield, and finish Great Expectations
go sailing
paint something pretty
give blood regularly
buy a new camera

Ok. You can totally do this list. Mark each one with a month to do it in, and you can do them. Except, forget Dickens. Really. I read them, they make me snore… And you’ll get depressed. Watch the movies instead.

Not fair. I love Dickens. A Tale of Two Cities is one of my favorite books.

I want a GOOD camera this year. I want to be one of the GOOD camera people.

I want a good camera, but I don’t want to learn about aperture and lenses and f-stops and all the other crap that comes with having a good camera. So I’ll just get a nicer point and click. I’m a point and click kind of gal.

Who are you going to give your blood to? I could use some extra blood if you can’t find anyone else to donate it to.

I’m just gonna cut myself at the Walmart and see if anybody wants some. I’m charitable like that.

Every time I give blood, I’m reminded of the time that I tried to give blood as a teenager, and I didn’t weigh enough to qualify. Oh to be 98 pounds again!

So by getting a little greener….do you mean getting sick more often? or painting yourself green?

I meant morphing into a frog or perhaps a lizard, slowly and methodically.

I think you can accomplish the skiing lessons and regular blood letting simultaneously.

No lie. And if I add ‘humiliate myself’ and/or ‘break a few bones’ I can also accomplish those with the skiing lessons.
