Intents and purposes...

[fajrdrako]

I didn't get this from squashed but reading her LJ reminded me of it:

1. List five things you'd like to accomplish by the end of the year.

1. lose another 10-15 pounds


2. finish the stories and challenges in progress


3. finish "Simple Steps"


4. read the book Lisa gave me for my birthday
   
5. hold a party

2. List five people you've lost contact with that you'd like to hear from again.

Ruth Ann Jolly
Blanche Lewis
Sven Larsen
Kathy Wagner


3. List five things you'd like to learn how to do.

1. origami


2. speak Esperanto, Latin and French much better than I do
   
3. save money! (obviously I don't know how)


4. tai chi with sword


5. fencing

4. List five things you'd do if you won the lottery (no limit).

My first thought was that there are various causes I would like to back; but putting aside such things, there are ways I would like to change my life:

1. Visit Greece and Egypt (with friends)


2. Buy and furnish a house with a garden (and hire a gardner*)


3. Study history


4. Write novels


5. Buy some original art from my favourite artists

5. List five things you do that help you relax.

Yoga
Reading books and comics
Walking
Listening to my birds twittering
Listening to or looking at oceans

*I would not make the gardener change his name to Sam Gamgee.
