You have certainly set yourself some good challenges again this year. Glad to see you got your longed for Kindle. You will have such fun with it. I haven't read Agatha Christie in years but I do love her writing. I wonder how many of the 100 films you will get through this year that's quite a challenge in itself. I'm off to write my first blog of 2015.Lazy Days & Sundayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00981937294479619947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-31259224523248076392015-01-03T20:56:42.643+00:002015-01-03T20:56:42.643+00:00That sounds like a great set of challenges.

I do want to watch some which I don't fancy as I often enjoy films which don't immediately take my fancy, but I hope this challenge will encourage me to watch some classics such as The Godfather which I've never seen before.

I usually read 3-4 books per month and plan to continue that. My biggest intention this year is to watch less TV and do more counted cross stitch.

Yours are definitely interesting, though I'm not good at watching movies as I've got to be doing something with my hands whilst sitting and then miss bits (especially the important ones). I'll post about mine soon. The charity bit sounds good and I've done a lot over the years, but not since we've been "here". I did donate two quilts last year, but that was all.
