So, some of you may or may not know that I work for a group of investment bankers. Every day I query databases and spit out data that helps them win bond deals all over the US, and adds $$$ to our company's revenue. So, this charting and graphing stuff is what I have been doing off and on for the past 5 years. Has it really been that long? Well... over 5 years you feel like you are looking at the same thing over and over. So, I decided to curtail the charts to my needs.
Here is a pie chart of the projects that I am planning to complete in 2010. I joined the Ravelry group 10 in 2010 to get some help, engcouragement, motivation, and much needed therapy when necessary. (Deb you will still remain my number 1 therapist. Don't go getting all jealous ;-) )
So, one of my knitting buddies called me a knitting geek. Hehe!! I just like to keep things organized. In college I got an A in Biostatistics. Well, this isn't Bio, but it's not Investment Banking either. I calculated the amounts by the specified yardage that is required for each pattern. When I sum it all up, I am slated to knit about 7.24 miles of yarn this year. That's the distance from Times Square to Washington Heights along the West Side Highway. Hmmm..... Let's see if I can do it this year.
So, I didn't get to finish my Sexy Vesty or my February Fitted Pullover last year. But, I am still working on them, and they should be done soon. Aside from a dinner party that I will be cooking for tomorrow night, I have no plans for the weekend but to knit.
Happy Knitting everyone!

And someone said I was organized because I already started Christmas knitting! Girl, this is too much. Wow! This really appeals to the geek in me :-)
In my experience, having a game plan is half the battle.
Good luck with your to-do chart and happy new year to you!
Love your pie chart and your goals! I know you can do it :D
That is just the sort of geekiness I adore. :)
Wait, are these already all in progress? That is a pretty darn impressive list. If you finish all of those projects by 2011, I'll buy you some wine.
