23. Help 5 Strangers- in progress
On New Years Eve I went to CVS to get something. There was a man outside next to a motorcycle that said, "Broke Down Need Parts". I just smiled and walked by. After I left I had this pit in my stomach. I saw a man in the freezing cold and I just smiled. So I went back. I felt like an idiot as I walked by him again and he said, "back for more?" So I went inside, bought chocolate for Peter's dad and on my way out asked him if there was anyone I could call for him. He said no and that the part he needs is way too much money at the place that has it and the place that doesn't wont get it until after Christmas. So until then he was waiting to find a place to stay. I do not have the money to put this guy in a hotel and my dad would probably murder me if I invited him to stay at our house, because we were leaving. So I went and bought him coffee and gave him some of the chocolate I bought. I talked to him, Roger, for a little bit and then left. I know I could have done more, but Roger said he was really grateful for the coffee.
26. Get my tragus pierced- COMPLETE
My friend Jenn and I had planned on getting our ears pierced a few weeks ago and we had failed to find the place. So today we decided to try again. We ended up finding it and even though she chickened out, I got my tragus pierced!!!
82. Have my own ice skates- COMPLETE
After asking for ice skates for about 7 years, I finally got them for Christmas.
84. Pray for Healing Everyday- in progress
I have a friend that I have been friends with forever and she has a disease. It has just been a fact of life and something that has never hindered us, but is obviously not ideal. Then one day I realized that in my struggles I rely on God to pull through and make me strong. I have prayed for speedy recoveries and prayed for peoples health before, yet I have never prayed for healing for something that has no cure. So starting on December 15, 2010 I have been praying for healing every night. And I will every night until it is healed, even if that is the rest of my life!
90. Get 10 more shot glasses- in progress
Both my parents and Peter's parents collected shot glasses. So we decided to also. We have a small collection with some from the beach, New Orleans, and the Devils. For my brother's birthday we went to Dave & Busters and with our extra points we got a new shot glass. One down- Nine to go!
100. Read 7 Books for Fun- in progress
As many of you know reading books for fun is a new concept for me. But I have been enjoying books more and have found certain genres that I like. This past summer I read A Child Called "It". So This winter break I read the second, The Lost Boy. Now I am in the middle of the third, A Man Named Dave. So far only the second one counts, but I'm excited to keep doing it. One down- Six to go!
