You know, I really do like this goals business. I'm not a very good do-er - you know how some people set their minds to something and they do it, with no hassle and no fuss. I'm not one of those people (unfortunately - I do admire them greatly!). So the list of goals really helps. It gives me something to aim for, and is a reminder of things I need to, or would like to, get done. And it's working! I've now caught up on everything, except one (my study...urk). And best of all, I feel really good about it. This finishing thing is great!
So I've put my May goals up - I'm not sure whether I've got the balance right - I might even need to add some!
And I've had a good month on the Stash Honesty front as well (primarily thanks to giving away some stash and also bulky knits - fast and furious! There'll be something to report on this probably next week!)
So for April:
In: 12 x 50g balls - including my first Noro and my eBay discontinued yarn purchase
Out: 22 x 50g balls - yay! my first month where I actually reduced my stash! 2 x 50g balls of special yarn for Bells, 2 x 100g balls of special yarn for Kim, 2 x 50g balls of special yarn for Miss J, and the rest I actually knitted up! Woo hoo!
So, this month, I'm -10 x 50g balls! And year to date - well, not great, but better! +22.75 x 50g balls! Yay!

You are doing such a fabulous job with your goals!!!
Ooooh Noro!!!
nice one. You're my hero on this stuff. I aim to be as good as you - and I failed this month. A certain pi shawl sucked up much of my time.
Still loving the tally system.
You are so organized! I wish I could do that with my knitting, but right now, it's just out of the question.
You are very organized and doing so well, except... you've go some additional coming your way... :) And I am every so grateful to take those two skeins off your hands. TeeHee...
Good work! At the rate I'm going, I may have to join you. xx
I love this idea! I should make my own list. I guess I'll have to go find a pen, first...
Good for you, how reawrding to finish projects and feel no guilt starting new ones!
