Took awhile to find the post where I discussed them but here they are. I was pleasantly surprised that I managed to accomplish most of them and make decent progress on the others. Of course, now I have to come up with my goals for 2009!

1. Blog: Write in here four days a week, on average.

Well, that certainly didn’t happen.  Barely wrote one entry a week, never mind four. Actual post total – 57

2. Knitting: Finish ten knitting projects; two must be larger projects (think sweater or lace shawl). End the year with less stash yarn than I had to start with.

I finished 18 projects, three of which were pairs of socks. Sure, I said large = sweater or shawl but socks have just as many stitches (right?). I think I can say this was successfully completed.

3. School: Keep grades up (aka higher than 3.0 GPA).

Only wound up with one semester of school in 2008 but I did take home a 3.3 GPA that one semester.

4. Photos: Take an average of four photos a week.

According to Flickr my 2008 total is 1,273 photos which averages about 25 per week. A European vacation and lots of knitting shots did a lot to raise those numbers.

5. Friends/Family: Make the most of the postal service by writing more letters and sending care packages to friends and family just because.

I sent some letters and packages but not nearly as many as I anticipated. This goal will be re-written in a more specific way and turned into an ’09 goal, I’m sure.

6. Work: Be the best employee I can be in the new work group. Take tasks outside my comfort zone.

I think I did this though, really, only my fellow employees can say either way. I’ve tried to take tasks that are more “out there” though there wasn’t always the opportunity to do so.
