Two full years in! Wow. I still have plenty of goals left to work on. This is my report for March, April, and May. Summer is my high season, so I hope to knock some good ones off this summer.
44. Donate (or attempt to donate) blood three times
I'm done with this one. I made my third attempt to donate blood on 5/17. Again, my iron count was too low. I was only a hair under this time, so I will keep eating leafy greens (and maybe find some iron supplements) and try again in a few months. I'm bummed that I haven't been able to donate, as needles don't bother me.
23. Send art to three different friends
Continues to be in progress. In March, I sent a framed photo to Zandria
She asked for a photo from the Netherlands, as she studied abroad there too. I really love the clean lines of the frame. I'd never done something in the see-through glass frame, but I really like it. I especially love how the photo will take on a different character if the wall is painted.
74. write 4 real letters to friends
Still in progress. I wrote two more, and I've just got one more to go. I've also been sending out some postcards. I cleaned out my desk today and found some excellent ones, so I imagine those will go out one of these days.
I did run a 5k recently. It was a trail race, and I haven't been training much. I didn't beat my previous 5k time, but I did have a good time. Pretty soon here, I'm hoping to start training for a more serious 5k in September (Defeat of Jesse James Day!).
As for the rest, we'll see what the next 7 months hold! My deadline is Christmas of this year.
