Snowflake Challenge Day #12

Challenge #12

In your own space, set yourself some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private.

So I looked back at last years goals I made during the Snowflake Challenge and I only achieved one out of four of them, yikes! That being said I did have a few unexpected real life things happen last year that took up some of my time. Anyways, here are a few simple goals that I hope to complete this year:

1. Complete my Book Bingo card.

2. Complete my paint-by-numbers painting.  I have this paint-by-numbers painting of a winter landscape I started last winter and it's still not done.

3. Do some research on the best mid-size cars.  I hope to maybe buy a new car this year, but first I have to do the research.

So nothing too exciting, but it's all I am willing to commit to at the moment.

Good luck with all of yours! The book bingo is one of mine too.

Thank you!

I had a paint-by-numbers painting last year, and really enjoyed doing it, even though I only painted once a week.

[kingstoken]

I enjoy mine too, but sometimes forget about it for long stretches, and then I like "oh yeah, that thing"

Good goals!

[kingstoken]

Thank you!

Good luck with these goals! I hope you get a great car. (If you want a recommendation I can ask Pip; he can look at it from the dealer and repair side. Like, some cars are super expensive to get parts for.)

[kingstoken]

Thank you! That would be helpful. I currently have a Nissan Mirca it has been a really good little car, but it's tiny. My brother is a big man and I have to drive him to appointments and such and it's very cramped. So, I am looking for something that is a bit bigger, but still hopefully fuel efficient.

[spikedluv]

Sedan (4-door) or small SUV (like a Jeep Renegade or Ford Escape)? (So I can narrow it down for him.)

[kingstoken]

I'm thinking sedan 4-door

[spikedluv]

Took me a while to remember to ask, then to remember to reply here. *head desk*

Pip suggested Toyota all the way. They're the best thing going right now, he said. Corolla if you want 4-door sedan, or the Rav4. Hope this helps!

[kingstoken]

Thank you for the advice, I will definitely take a look at them.

[spikedluv]

You're welcome!

(If it helps, the Corolla has been our 'vacation car' for the past few years. He buys it a lot for his used car lot.)

The Book Bingo is a cool challenge. I want to get back into reading this year and I'd like to give it a shot. :D

Good luck with the goals!

[kingstoken]

We'd be glad to have you. Good luck with your reading!

Not overcommiting is a sign of wisdom and maturity. Good skills to you in achieving your goals. (I haven't done a paint-by-numbers in forever. I hope they turn out really well.)

[kingstoken]

Thank you!

I used one of those paint by number apps, too bad they don't give us freedom in choosing colors. But I love making them. Congratulations for being on the bingo card, I think that's cool. Congratulations on your goals, I want them all to come true.

[kingstoken]

Thank you! I've been tempted once or twice to try those apps, but like you said don't have any freedom to change things up a bit.
