10 goals for 2010 – progress update

So we’re two months through 2010 and how many goals have I accomplished…?

1. To make a meal using only ingredients I’ve grown, raised, caught or killed myself.

Not done much for this one yet – although I have become a mustard making fiend of late and that will probably feed into said meal.

2. To travel to a place on my “top ten places to go before I die” list.

Not done anything on this yet. Boo.

3. Finish writing my second novel.

I’ve thought about it a few times – that counts, right?

4. Learn how to make sausages – wet English style ones and cured ones too.

We’re booked on a course later this month @ Old Sleningford Farm.

5. Spend at least a day fishing out on the North Sea.

Nothing happened on this yet but it wasn’t likely to happen in the winter – far too cold!

6. Finally finish learning how to drive.

Yeah… No… I’ve got annoyed at the buses to/from Bingley a few times though – a couple more times will be plenty of inspiration to get me started again though.

7. Make a full outfit’s worth of clothing for myself – including spinning any wool used.

World of Warcraft has killed a lot of my crafting pursuits but I’ve been keeping an eye out for spinning course.

8. Learn how to program and make a mini-game/application using Ruby.

Ha! something I’ve actually started – I’ve learnt some very basic Ruby from my learning to program book. I made an “angry boss” program and a “deaf grandma” program – very very simple things though so they don’t complete my goal. I must make more time for it.

9. Climb a mountain or at least a jolly big hill.

It’s been too snowy to do anything much towards this one but something that should happen this weekend will make it a whole lot easier to get used to walking…

10. Participate more in the real world – plan/run a real life green event or scheme.

I’ve started the preliminary stages of basic introductory reading/research along one potential path and I’ve bookmarked some relevant stuff – but not really started yet.

So all in all, I’ve not done much towards any of them. It’s the snow and World of Warcraft’s fault.
