Now this year is nearly done
Let me tell you of my fun
A challenge for each week was set
Now have I won my weekly bet?
The New Year brought things to clean -
That's when I was really keen!
Windows, garage, oven, car
My cleaning powers are above par!
Fun things also I undertook
Here's the list, just take a look:
Sea swimming, nail painting, drawing too
Making sweets - all nice things to do.
I took my challenges to the plot
My paths a dressing of woodchippings got
A scarecrow made to protect my crops
The annual show - it was top of the pops!
A falling leaf is hard to catch
I thought that here I'd met my match.
Despite the cold and wind and rain
New running goals I did attain
Domestic skills I have acquired
By many things I was inspired
Knitting, quilting, making bread
I can't let this go to my head!
As the year draws to a close
My final task is this piece of prose
And with a glass of home made cheer
I wish you all a Happy New Year!
Big Sister Helen's most impressed
ReplyDeleteBy all the things you've done -
A year of weekly challenges,
Some worthy and some fun.
I went with speed each week to read
Your blog each Sunday night;
Admired the most your early rise
To greet the Solstice light!
So if this New Year's Eve you feel
You've nothing much to do -
Sit down and start another list
For next year's 52!
Well done!

A perfect endpiece, BSH, thank you. x
DeleteHazel, so well written and so glad you achieved all your challenges. I think I saw most of them and it was fun on the journey with you although I live so far away. Take care and what you going to do for 2014?
ReplyDeleteIt has been really fun, Sue, and I've done lots of new things, some of which I would like to revisit at a later date. Thank you for following me through the year.
Delete2014's challenges will be cooking related - as soon as I sort a blog out, I'll pop it on the side bar! :-)
Better have a look back at your clearing out garage post (lol).
