It is, therefore, time for my annual goal update....
- Read 12,000 pages - Between books and audiobooks, I read over 31,000 pages last year. That was 67 books, including Stephen King's _Dark Tower_ series, all of the Babylon 5 books, Isaac Asimov's Robot series, Martha Wells' Murderbot series, Geddy Lee's memoir _My Effin' Life_, and many others. I'd call it a resounding success
- Lose 25 pounds - Well....between January and July of last year I lost 18 pounds, but have sadly gained almost all of it back. Abject failure
- Finish one large needlework project - I finished Ink Circles "Castle Walls" at the end of October, so success.
- Finish one medium or small needlework project - This was the year of big project stitching, but I did finish a small - Ink Circles "All Sorts Welcome", a Patreon freebie. A small success.
- Inventory my crafting supplies - Sadly another year has gone by without my doing so.
- Complete one yarncrafting project - Not quite, although I am getting near the end on knitting Scheepjes "Book Lovers Wrap".
- Drink at least 1.5 litre of water a day - I've been hit or miss with this.
- Continue Duolingo and Lumosity daily exercises - My Duolingo streak has stayed active, but I've missed the occasional day on Lumosity. I need to get that streak going again.
- Do some form of exercise daily - As of this typing, my daily exercise streak is now at 465.
- Make sure the dishes are done daily - i've been doing pretty well with this also.
- Read 20,000 pages - Since I blew away last year's goal, I'll increase this from 12,000 to 20,000.
- Lose 25 pounds - I need to do this. Maybe I'll actually make it this year.
- Finish one large needlework project - Of my four seasonal large projects, I'm likely to finish my winter project, Liz Almond's _Save the Stitches_ blackwork sampler. There's a chance I may finish all 4, which would be an awesome accomplishment, but we'll see.
- Finish one medium or small needlework project - I have two medium projects in the works, and two smalls. Again, I'm leaving the particulars up in the air for finishing.
- Inventory my crafting supplies - I need to inventory what I have, and possibly cull a bit, and didn't do that this past year. Or the year before...
- Complete one yarncrafting project - Either crochet or knit. This is a good recurring goal, in much the way the reading goal is, and I'm close to a finish on Book Lovers Wrap.
- Drink at least 1.5 litre of water a day - Maybe I should start a streak for this too.
- Continue Duolingo and Lumosity daily exercises
- Do some form of exercise daily
- Make sure the dishes are done daily
