While you put...I like your 2015 goals list Carlyn. While you put some things on it from the past, they are things that you did not complete to your satisfaction in the past and I think a few new goals are always good too. Making the same goals every year can end up in frustration if you don't achieve them or tedium if you achieve them easily each time. <br /><br />For our mother's 70th birthday, my brothers, sister and their families and I took mom to Wine Country in Upstate New York. There is a post buried somewhere on our site about it. I think if you can come up with ideas of things she likes to do or places she likes to go that could help and perhaps something that you might do together as a family, which I believe meant a lot to my mom on her 70th birthday. jon bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16082859646896477574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-93806949401535283.post-54849198953658483972015-01-20T12:26:46.975-08:002015-01-20T12:26:46.975-08:00I agree that most internet news site, don't ha...I agree that most internet news site, don't have anything noteworthy. Hopefully, you can do more productive things without Yahoo News. <br /><br />If I do go through with getting a TESOL certificate, I plan on doing that online as I think most institutions only offer it online. It's a bit pricey so I'll have to wait until I have some money. <br /><br />I'm still thinking about what to do for my mum. My latest idea is hiring a limo to take her somewhere but that's as far as I got.

Being more productive...Good list of goals, Carlyn! Being more productive is a worthy goal for all of us; I'm thinking about trying to boycott Yahoo News completely. Most of the articles in my news feed aren't really educational news at all. Some are completely non-news (like the story that keeps popping up that Tim Tebow is not really dating Jana Duggar; in fact, they haven't even met!).<br /><br />Keep us updated on the TESOL certification if you decide to go for it. In the past I've thought I might want to try to get a similar certification--maybe a CELTA, but I would have to go out of state to get one as the course isn't offered here in Iowa. So that idea has really gone onto a back burner.<br /><br />Exercise can be hard, but it is good for us! All the best in that goal! Hope you can come up with a fantastic idea for your mum's birthday!Bethany Carsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06583914285773271009noreply@blogger.com
