the next 355 days

So now that I have my word I have also set a few goals that I would like to achieve this year. Note that they are not “resolutions” (I don’t like that word) but things I want to do that either I haven’t done before or didn’t do enough of.
In no particular order:
Goal #1: Date my husband. I think I can count on one hand the number of actual dates we went on last year. I want to change that this year.
Goal #2: Read 12 books this year. I’m a slow reader but I love a good book.
Goal #3: Crochet Maribel a mini her like I did for my niece and nephew
Goal #4: Dance. Dance when no one is watching.
Goal #5: Learn a new song on the piano.
Goal #6: Fly home and bring Maribel to meet her Canadian family.
Goal #7: Finish the Unfinished craft projects of 2010:
             -cupcake apron
             -Dear Lizzy flower shirt
             -knitted scarf 
             -December Daily project 
Goal #8: Visit a local zoo.
Goal #9: Be in more pictures.

Goal #10: Bake more with Maribel.

 As I complete some goals more will come along but this is a start. I don’t want to set myself up for failure. I’ve already started on #2 and one of #7. I must finish my December Daily album. I’m so close I can taste it!
Don’t worry, I’m not licking paper or eating glue. I gave that up years ago.

Love your "goals" list. It is so easy to get caught up in the everyday stuff and not do as much of the stuff we love. It is a great idea to have it written and be reminded.

Love that pic of M and her easy bake oven.
