Goals for 2015

Since last year, I have started giving myself goals to work on for the year.  Some goals were easy while others were a little harder to achieve, but I still managed to compete them in some way.  So let's start off with a recap of last year's goals and how I fulfilled them, and then we'll move on to goals for 2015.  Trying to think positively here as the year has been a very mixed one.

•  Get outside and exercise more...I'd have to say that we did fairly well with this goal as we did spend a lot of time hiking, BBQing, and just being outside.
•  Work on means of making money from home...Haven't really gotten very far with this one, at the very least I have an idea of what I want to do, I just need to implement it. 
•  Barn Hunt Tetsu...Have gone to 2 Barn Hunt trials this year, not as many as I would have liked but still better than none.
•  Dryland races and meeting mushers...I did go to the sled dog trade fair with Titan to which we did learn a lot, hang out with some mushers, and even did a race. Had a lot of fun with that one and hope to go back next year.
•  WPD Tikaani and Titan...Didn't really focus much on this, but our hikes have gotten longer so all of the dogs are getting better endurance.
•  Special activity with Miyu...Haven't implemented it yet as we did just literally think of this a few days ago, but we would like to go canoeing down Carman's River and take Miyu along with us. It was basically between her and Tikaani (Tetsu hates water while Titan is too hyper), being that she is the smaller of the two she wins out. This would have to wait until the weather warms up next year, but at the very least we can get her a life-vest and work on desensitizing her to being in a boat.
•  Do more art...I have done significantly more than in previous years, not as much as I would like but it's a start.
•  Art corner in reptile room...Still trying to figure this one out, at least we have the closet organized to fit everything.
•  Finally, hang out and meet up with friends...Yep to this one. Met up with several friends at various dog events, rekindled an old friendship, and met some great people on the way.

And now here are my goals for 2015!

• Finish the kitchen, it is now basically a room with some tables and a hot plate. Time to turn it into a real kitchen.
• Canoe or kayak at least once with the hubby and one of the pups (either Miyu or Tikaani)
•  Work on Tikaani and Titan's WPD title, I say this every year since getting Tikaani but it's looking like this year we may have an opportunity to get some legs on it. 
•  More Barn Hunt with Tetsu, and try Tikaani out with it as well.
•  Have an idea for a home based business, so need to implement it. Get the paperwork sorted out, build up an inventory, and vend at at least 2 fairs this year.
•  Work on the yard, organize and clean it up. This includes, but not limited to: finish up vegetable area, getting rid of the rest of the junk left over by the previous home owners, finish expanding dog run, better fencing to divide front and back yard, finish chicken run, build new chicken coop, and possibly a goat house that can be converted to a shed if we choose to not add goats this year. 
•  More hiking and more exercise, try to increase our average distance and explore new locations.
•  Race Titan next winter, we're both getting better in the woods might as well get him to some events.
•  Cook more and eat healthier. I love to cook, I really need to get in the kitchen more and stop being lazy.

LoL, a bit of a long list but the more that's on there the more likely we'll have something done by the end of the year. 2014 ended spending time with some great friends and family, now it's time to look to the future and plan for a better tomorrow. Farewell to 2014, Hello 2015!!
