016 Do 6 random acts of kindness without recognition – Last week I saved a dog’s life. I won’t go into details since I was told I technically broke the law. But if I hadn’t of acted he would have frozen to death in the snow. The people who know the story have all said I did the right thing and would have done the same. Even Animal Control agreed with me and kind of looked the other way so I didn’t get into trouble. Two down…four more to go.

024 Loose 50lbs (starting at 180lbs) and wear a size 6 – Ronnie got me Wii Fit Plus the other day and I LOVE it! I had the original which was great but the new one is plain awesome! I’m down to 176 now. People have been commenting that I look like I lost weight. Amazing what a difference 4lbs makes!

027 Finish decorating every room in the house – I’m closer to finishing the kitchen. I bought these wall stickers that say “Live well Laugh often Love much” and finally put them up this past weekend. Next on the kitchen list is to paint the bottom half of the walls, build a shelf, sand and stain the cabinets, and replace the back-splash and faucet. If we have a good chunk of money at some point I’d like to get the counter tops replaced or recovered, like Granite Transformations.

029 Floss my teeth more often- I HATE going to the dentist and having to answer the question “so how often do you floss?” I have crooked teeth and trying to wedge that string down between my teeth is such a pain the butt, not to mention the gums. But the more you do it, the stronger your gums get. I knew this would have to be associated with a current routine if I wanted to keep this up. So in the evening when I’m giving Roo a bath I floss my teeth. I figure it’s also good for her to see me doing this. Hmm, are you supposed to floss baby’s teeth? I think I’ll keep this up for a few more weeks before crossing it off my list.

031 Donate my hair to Locks of Love - 10 inches is the minimum length you can donate. When I get my hair cut for this I like my hair to still be about shoulder length. This means I have 7 more inches to go.

056 Zero personal debt for family – I did our taxes the other day. We’ll be getting quite a bit back in Federal but we’ll owe a little for State. Here’s our plan for the money…$260 will go to our State taxes, $80 to pay off our Target credit card, $500 to pay off our CapitalOne credit card, get a new tail light on the SUV, $542 for our February house payment and the rest in savings. We’ll see if everything works out like that but that’s the plan.

071 Visit every museum in Wichita, KS – Saturday, February 6th is free Friends and Family day at Botanica. I love free days at museums!

072 Buy a digital camera – Ronnie’s cousin offered me her old digital camera. We’re planning on going to her house for a Superbowl party so she’ll have it for me then. I’m so excited! Then I can start taking pictures of everything!!

084 Watch all episodes of Ugly Betty – This one might turn out easier than expected. Ugly Betty is being canceled at the end of this season. I’m kind of sad about this but at least they know ahead of time to write a good ending.

087 Pay back in-laws – Ronnie and I offered to pay at least a good chunk back to my in-laws when we got our taxes back but they won’t take it. They said they’d rather see us put it in savings. I’m going to keep this one open though. We’re so lucky to have wonderful family!

088 Make bread once a week - This one I’ve been falling behind on. I made Spoon Bread the other day. It turned out more like corn meal pudding. I had never made it before so I’m guessing that’s the way it was supposed to turn out. We ended up eating it as a cold dessert with honey drizzled on it. I need to borrow that bread book from the library again for some better ideas.

005 Take a Class for Fun – Before moving up to Wichita, I knew someone here who was trying to talk me into Belly Dancing. I thought it’d be really cool but never went to check it out. So in September I’m going to go for free Girl’s Night Out classes at Sifira’s Center for World Dance. I’m going to see if I can talk a few girls into joining me.

024 Loose 50lbs and Wear a Size 6 – I’m currently a size 14/16. On 1/03/10 I weighed in at 179.7 (thank you Wii Fit). Yesterday I weighed in at 179.1 so I’m making a little progress. Better forwards than backwards no matter how small the increments! (Now if I got 072 – Buy a Digital Camera done, I’d be able to take pictures of my progress. However, I think I’d need 055 – Get a Job done before that )

028 Start My Own Daycare – I went to a class on this 1/04/10 and found how that Ronnie would need to get his record expunged for this to happen. Though I’ve talked with people who said there’s plenty of people who rent houses just for running a daycare, the Sedgwick County Health Department kind of made me feel like an idiot for even suggesting this. They said unless you live in Derby, it HAS TO BE at your residence. Maybe I should move out? Haha. But I won’t cross this off just yet. I have 1001 days to try to work on this one.

066 Make Crème Brûlée – This is the recipe of it I’ll make. I love Alton Brown.

071 Visit Every Museum in Wichita – I Binged “museums in Wichita” and found 21 museums. Who knew Wichita was so…cultured? I’ve been to 4 already so I’ll mark those off.

099 Fix My Credit Score -  Yesterday I pulled all three of my credit reports. I didn’t bother to get my score as I know I have a lot of work ahead of me. Probably in 2012 I’ll fork over the $5 for it. Till then, I’ll just work on my debts. There are a few medical debts that I vehemently said I would not pay. The insurance company would not pay what they were obligated to pay for Sadie’s birth and kept giving me the run around when I’d call about it. “Oh yes, Mrs. Bentz. I see here that we’re supposed to pay this. We’ll contact the hospital and let them know. Just ignore any further correspondence.” Then the next month when I get another notice one person would say, “Nope, we did our part.” and another would say “Oh, our mistake.” After 4 months of fighting, I gave up. Now I need to review my stand on this but I won’t guarantee I’ll change my mind. God I hate Blue Cross/Blue Shield!!!

Today my little brother was going to school, first day in spring break. And guess what! The schools water pipes froze. So he and his friends got to go home. So I didn’t get rid of him today.

My BFF visited slept over last night, so I could not write yesterday, so sorry! We had a great time, and my brother got pissed when we trashed his room.

School starts on Monday,wish me luck!

071 Go fruit picking every summer [0/3]

I went to the pumpkin farm last weekend, does that count? A pumpkin has seeds, it’s a fruit right??

Corn rows

A lonely pumpkin hoping to get picked

038    Budget monthly (keep register daily, pay bills weekly or with paychecks) [1/21]

I budgeted Novembers bills today so I have been sticking to that part. I’m still slacking in the register area though. Hmph.

029 Get to and maintain last goal weight [1/6]

I’ve been up and down two pounds in the past 3-4 weeks. It looks like it’s time to start dieting. Boooo.

042    Take a dance class

I’ve been back to 2-Step Tuesdays for a couple weeks now, but not much dancing. I really need to get back into it.

067    Maintain a 3.5 GPA each quarter (change if I feel I can maintain higher) [0/6]

Got my second A last week and I checked the grades in one of my classes and including book work I’m ahead of the average in the class so that makes me feel good. I haven’t received actual grades in my other two classes but I know I’ve done well. I’ll let you all know when I get my midterm grades.

050    Crock Pot a meal once weekly for a month (if economical, continue on) [1/4]

Ohhhh I made a roast chicken this past weekend, it was sooo good! Here are some highlight shots.

Bed of veggies I had left in my crisper

Seasoned and ready for some heat!

8 hours later.. yummy roasted chicken

I removed the chickens, poured some water in and cooked for another 6 hours

I cooled and strained, now I have roughly 48 ounces of homemade chicken broth

Ok more like a whole picture recipe! Heh..

063    Host a dinner party

I received an email from Kristin about a Brunch Club, which sounds super fun! This sort of fits here since you do host it and while it’s not a dinner it is a party

055    Update 101 blog weekly [7/143]

Chugging right a long here… woot! I meant to keep up with this every Friday, and I will probably keep to that and update twice this week. So, sorry for the blog slacking…

076    Document events and thoughts from 9/9/09, 10/10/10, and 11/11/11 Become punctual

I’m officially changing this to remove my seat from Procrastination Station.

In reply to Rihanna and her ex or friend Chris Brown, I can only appeal to justice.

And therefore I did reject the mainstream and the leading motive of undercover ongoing.

But at the same time I did saw her new video clip, and thought about it and kept on thinking about it, but somehow it just didn’t reflected my position at all, so I don’t feel hurt or different or amazed or renewed about her new video clip, but with umbrella and her other songs in her album in 2007, I feel really comforted.

So I believe the message is clear, I have the right to say what I want and this is just what I did.

(And what they say on CNN is a request for justice, because most of them lie severely)

So based upon 28-10-09 the overdosed ongoing of media and their false ongoing comes to a permanent end, it can become actionable if strategies are being used in media to start “corruptions” or to be in “active corruptions”. So you are warned.

Al Qaeda and the so called Taliban is also coming to an end, and what Chris Brown and Rihanna did with each other is not true, but I’m feeling sorry that they don’t say it themselves, unfortunately, but once you find truthful friends, you notice that the world becomes smaller.

Basic statement for friendship: “And just to make it clear I dont want to lose any friendly ongoing with Rihanna, cause I don’t intend to harm her cherishful friendship at all.”

&I love that you can make really crappy

days feel like they didn’t exist at all.

This month, we reveal the icon 20/20: 20 designers and 20 architects making the future and transforming the way we work. From recent graduates to a billionaire industrialist, including teachers, funders, researchers and aid workers, it’s an unmissable guide to the thinkers and actors you need to know about. And you’re on the list – yes, you.

But, in a packed May issue, that’s not all. We’ve got a four-way conversation between Bruce Mau, Marcel Wanders and Dunne & Raby about how the crisis makes change possible. There’s a look around Wang Shu’s extraordinary Ningbo Historic Museum, a dramatic mountain of smashed tiles and weathered brick. The design schools that are setting up franchises around the world come under the microscope, and we pore over North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il’s thoughts on architecture.

Plus, up front, we’ve got Álvaro Siza, Giulio Cappellini, Muzak and new work from Kazuyo Sejima, Yves Béhar and MVRDV. Review looks at the Le Corbusier retrospective at the Barbican, the first major study of the “design art” boom, Ray Johnson’s mail art and the strange beauty of film opening credits.

Fashionista. Mallory’s preschool had a little fashion show that Mallory eagerly (quickly?) participated in — halfway through her walk she ran off the runway. She had fun nonetheless.
