The Tale of Vido the Merc - Epic Quest 2014


Recommended Posts

I'm not sure if anyone else will read this, but I feel it would be good to put it all down in one place, at least so I have a record of what I set out to do! I want 2014 to be the year I finally change. I want it to be the year I finally start making a difference. I got into a bit of a rut as of late and I want to turn all that around, so here are my goals for 2014. I might not get it all ticked off this year, but I hope to be writing a new one of these with totally new goals next year!
