Dawn, you got a lot accomplished!!! I think I had a productive year too but not so sure about 2018; not going to plan too much! Have a Happy New Year!
In 2016, I had made a list of 2017 goals on my whiteboard. There were seven, and as I accomplished them, I erased them. Unfortunately, I can't for the life of me remember what they were. But I accomplished six things out of seven on my list!! Yay! The one I didn't accomplish was "carpet cleaning," so I have a feeling it wasn't a great list anyway. I gotta get a new system. I should also figure out some funner goals.
W O W !! You got a lot finished in 2017 for sure..that is great!!
Other than my EIGHT quilts and various little projects I had a bout of
"Starting-itis"--hahaha hugs, Julierose
you got lots done, I got a virus! Ruins my New year! Hope you have a happy one, stay warm, Hugs Friend, I am using my coffee cup mug rug
