2023 Goals Review for June

We took a road trip to Minnesota in June for my Zombie Knitpocalypse knitting retreat. Our trip was wonderful and I was excited that I lost 4 lbs. during our trip. We were so busy that many times we didn’t go out for dinner. I’m a little behind on my reading and should have read 50 books by now but all of the other goals are on schedule.

1. Learn something new. - I learned Tunisian crochet to make a couple of dishcloths. I’m still practicing my watercolor painting and my ukulele.
