I didn't exercise (go on walks or do push-ups) nearly enough.
I didn't read many books. I think I set a goal to read ten but read six.
I didn't write much. I tried writing daily gratitude entries, but that lasted maybe a total of two weeks.

Post about the things you didn't do this year...here.

Ditto on the books.

Didn't do anything on my house - repairs, upgrades, de-clutter etc...

Didn't find true love.

Didn't die.

Did very little strength training.

I'd prefer to focus on the latter. I just get so bored with strength training. Wish I would commit to just like twice a week.

I didn't travel abroad.

I've already got a trip to Barcelona booked for March of 2023. :heartbeat:

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

Go to New York even though someone else would've paid my tickets and I would've had a free place to stay for a week.
Continue my '86 Bottecchia restoration project.
