79. Write a story using Story Cubes

At a write in, my friend brought story cubes and challenged me to write a story using them during a sprint. So I gave it a try. I wrote a story set in an Egyptian library. I managed to work all the elements in, and the story was strange but a whole lot of fun. I would definitely do this again just for fun or to jumpstart part of a story. I'm glad I gave this a try.

6. Read 5 books that are on my Pinterest Future TBR board

I earread another book that was on my Pinterest Future Mt. TBR board: Cinder by Marissa Meyer. It's one that has been recommended to me many times, and I'm glad to finally have read it. I adore fairy tale retellings.

Progress: 4 / 5

9. Read 5 books I’ve had out of the library for too long

I recently read Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse- The Art of the Movie by Ramin Zahed, which I've had out of the library for a long while now. It was a beautiful book of art, both conceptual sketches and finished stills full of detail I could really look at. I enjoyed learning about some of the ways the different artists contributed to the look and feel of the settings and characters.

Progress: 2 / 5

21. Complete 5 unfinished things from previous lists

I think I previously noted that I'd finished watching Smallville, which was Thing 60 off List 4. Here are the other things I managed to complete off previous lists:

2. Thing 86 off list 4: I hosted a party after my list 4 completed to complete this task. Having my friends over is a great incentive to get my house clean and an even better time because I get to be with my friends.

3. Thing 27 off list 1: Get rid of 5 boxes of things. I have only managed 5 boxes, which is well below another thing goal I have, but it's just enough to complete this one from a previous list.

4. Thing 39 off list 1: Go through Real Simple magazine collection. I went through and got rid of several hundred issues that I'd been saving to collect articles from. It felt good to clear those out (and enjoy the magazine issues again before tossing them out)

5. Thing 38 off list 2: Write 7 Strokes stories. I wrote 3 during this current list's time period, but this month during NaNoWriMo I wrote 4 more. I finished the last one up this morning. So I'm calling this officially done!
