Slowly wins the race...


I haven't managed to tick lots off in the past month ... but I have still been trying to keep (somewhat) on track!

With 587 days to go I now have ....

2.  Read 20 books that are not for uni - this will be a welcome change to a text book! {5/20 @ April 2013}
I read two more books and, I am even half way through a 3rd so very soon I will only have 14 to go ... if I say it quickly it doesn't sound as bad!  I do have a bit of a pile by my bed waiting for me to get around to reading them... so choosing shouldn't be hard!


5. Go on 12 dates with my hubby {7/12 @ April 13}
Went on another two dates with hubby.  The first one we went to the Beer Fest which was great, but made me feel old! We did discover a love for Rekorderling though ... mmmmm, and got to sample food from the Food Truck!  The second, we went out to see GI Joe at the movies, we went to Gold Class... their sundaes for dessert are SO good... I had the Ferrero Rocher one YUM!


23. Create 12 new aerobics routines to teach {2/12: May-12, Dec-12, Mar-13}
I re-choreographed a routine from an old piece of music I used to teach to so counting that!  I am going to aim to have another 3 new tracks over the next month ... still along way to go though!


26. Graduate University (again!) {Completed uni December 2012, Graduated April 17, 2013}
Yay - Jo & Graduated Uni this week!  Was a great day ... and neither of us tripped walking across the stage!


31. Send a hand made, hand written card to 5 of my friends {Apr13}
I have had these cards sitting on my desk for so long I now have no idea where they are!!! Oops... this is on my list to do this weekend ... hopefully I can find them, otherwise I will be remaking and sending them!

60. Get a MoleMap/MoleSnap {April 2013}
Booked in for a MoleSnap this month so its getting crossed off on this post in anticipation :)


64. Eat at 7 new restaurants {March 2013}
This one was ticked off after the beer festival.  We went out to dinner at big little grill in Elliot Stables ... it was really good.  I love eating here as there is so much variety with all the different places.


88. Send a secret to PostSecret {December 2012}
I had already ticked this off but... I was lucky enough to go to see Frank Warren talk about PostSecret when he came to NZ this month.  To make the event even better ... I received a copy of his latest book which he had written in, although I did have to read his message in front of everyone at the event!

I am looking forward to getting my hands on more of his books.



93. Attend a film festival movie {25 April 2013}
Jo and I are off to see The Queen of Versailles at the 2013 NZ International Film Festival Autumn Event next Thursday.  It is said to be “A succulently entertaining movie that invites you to splash around in the dreams and follies of folks so rich they're the one percent of the one percent.” — Owen Gleiberman,Entertainment Weekly.  We figured it would be one of the easier festival films to watch!


So once I have finished ticking off this months items I will only have 33 things to go ... of which, at least all the ones in Blue will be ticked off by the end of June, leaving me only 26 things left to plan.
