Resolutions 2023 - eight month check

It's check-in time. One point a month for each resolution I've worked on. Hopefully, by the end of the year, I'll have 12 for completion. A score of 2 means I worked on it each month. 

  • Paint my home space - My ceilings haven't been painted since we first moved in. My living room and my hallway need an overhaul. My bedroom could use it too, but that isn't as important as the first two. -  COMPLETED Score - 2

  • Entice Tom to build my shelves to display my playing card collection - I collect playing cards. I need somewhere to display them, and Tom drew out plans for what I found on Etsy. He claims he can knock it out, "don't waste your money." Once I get the paint done, this comes next. -  I'm not sure how much enticing I did, but he has built them! They still need to be stained and hung, but technically, this job is complete! - COMPLETED Score - 2 

  • Travel - Can't let those Wyndham points go to waste. - Too much happened this summer for me to get away. But my kids did.  - Score - 0 

  • Lower my cholesterol - I retake it in May or June - Yes! I did it! But I'm keeping this resolution open since the bad is still high. I plan to retake it again by the end of the year. Still, technically, it is completed. Score - 2

  • Exercise/Healthy eating habits - This goes with the above, but I do need to shed some weight for my own mental health, not to mention the flip side of the coin. - A bit here, a bit there - Exercised this summer in the pool - Score - 1

  • Catch up on my blog - Writing has kept me from this. My readers are complaining. I need to catch up! - I am going to come home big here at the end! - Score 1

Total - 8 out of 12 - But two (and a half) completed!
