...Through another month...

I will be honest. For a while, I forgot that I had this blog... So you know that I accomplished a lot of goals, right? Naturally! Ha!

Let's take a look.

50. Eat a mushroom without thinking it is going to kill me. Yeah. That one was difficult. But I can now say that I have done it.

There were a few others that I am still working on. Morgan and I have gone shopping a few times recently. I think I nearly have my new "Josh wardrobe". We were also thinking of taking a weekend trip to Atlanta and seeing the last game of the season. But then the Braves decided they didn't like to win games anymore. And airfare doubled. So we changed our minds about that.

And that may be it. Yikes! I need to do better!
