Over the last year, I've done some pretty awesome things:
- got a job with a fantastic structural engineering firm, that has a great work environment
- tried NANO for the first time, and won
- purchased one of my grail GCs for a great price
- got not one, but two Stone Morgan Santa Fes
- bought my first used car from a dealership
- in February, I bought the dog I've wanted my whole life-a Doberman
I'm sure there are many more, but I tried to focus on the brightest highlights.
Now, I'm excited for a whole new year, with new possibilities. And even more so because 2014 is the year of the horse. That means a great many things to come, hopefully many of them equine.
My goals/wishes/dreams for this exciting year:
- Lease or buy my own horse. I'm looking for a black gelding of Quarab, Arabian, Morgan or Morab breed.
- Buy at least two more Santa Fe Morgans
- Win NANO for the second year in a row
- buy more models (yes, this is a goal. I am lucky to be in a position where I can afford to increase my collection, and I want to glory in the amazingness of it)
- Finish off my GC collection. I have ~30 classic horses left to get and a random assortment of other sizes, many of which are difficult to track down.
- Fully pedigree every horse on my website.
- Find IDs for all my orphans (and I have a LOT)
- participate in the racing and showing clubs more actively this year
- breed 100 foals from my stable, Golden Hart Estates
- get GCMHC up and running again
- finish the personal pages for all my horses (eek, but I can do it!)
- participate in IPABRAs secret santa
- host a secret santa for GCMHC
- get Naomi and Wynonna and/or Susecion and Le Fire
- post at least once a week on my blog
I have a lot of personal goals for myself, as well, but I won't bore you with all those typicals, too.
Well, it looks like I have a lot of work to do. Better get on it!
