248/365 A new adventure begins - 24 in 12






Time for a new door to open! I have been reading on a few other blogs how people set themselves a goal list, usually "30 before 30" i.e. 30 things they want to do before they reach the age of 30, since if I include the age in mine, it might depress me ( *grin*) I decided that this year instead of a New Years Resolution list - which every year is the same old list "Get Healthy", "Exercise More" etc, and quite frankly is too boring and gets forgotten every year by February at the latest. I decided for 2012 I would write a list of things I wanted to do or try during the year instead. 

Then me being me, I got very excited and wrote the list immediately, and have already started planning some of them! So I thought "bugger it! I don't want to wait until 1st January to get started!" So in typical "Jules style" my New Year starts tomorrow - 1st November, you never know it could become a new tradition! 

So here they are: 24 adventures in the next 12 months (1st Nov 2011 - 31st Oct 2012) or 24 in 12 :)
