2013 Goals

I don't do resolutions. These are not resolutions, but goals, perhaps even challenges. Things that I want to achieve in 2013. I'm open to suggestions for extra ones, but reserve the right to point and laugh at your silly ideas.
  • Climb Raspberry Roseberry Topping. It's only a two-mile circular route, but it's steep. I've climbed it before, when I was younger, so I want to do it again.
  • Climb some bigger things. Specifically, I'd like to go fell walking in the Lake District. Or at the very least, go to the Lake District! I've only ever passed through. I fully accept that this may need to wait until 2014.
  • Visit at least 20 National Trust properties, at least 5 of which are 'new'. And have my NT passport stamped at all of them! This is quite a challenge, as there aren't many around here, but it will be a productive use of Saturdays I think.
  • Do something educational once a month. I'm booked for learning how to repair knitting work in January (Saturday morning course at a local yarn shop), it's the WFTDA Officiating Clinic in February (and let's gloss over the Medical Terminology exam also in February... eek!), nothing for March or April yet, going on a walkabout in the woods with Ray Mears in May, choir tour to Austria in June, and that's it for the year so far.
It's really important for me to remember how far I've come this year. Almost 12 months to the day, I attempted to walk in the swimming pool before having started physio. Now I'm casually walking around like nobody's business, and commuting 4.5 miles a day by bike! I've even put roller skates on and propelled myself forwards without falling over.

Bring it on, 2013!
