better late than never...

2010 was an interesting year for me:
I got engaged...
Got married...
Traveled...
Spent time with a best friend...
Said goodbye to a loved one...
Surprised with a puppy...
Rode a donkey (not my finest moment)...
And pet an elephant...

And did plenty more in between. So when I started thinking about new years resolutions for this year, it made me think of my resolutions from last year. I was happy to look back and see that they all went pretty okay. Like start a new hobby (sewing) and traveling (Indonesia) and saving money (sort of) and sending postcards (yep.) Some of my resolutions from last year I'd like to keep for this year as well. Like planting something, volunteering, and finishing my grandmas memoir project (oops kinda dropped the ball on that one.) But I also have some new ones to add to the list. So here's my up-to-date resolutions for 2011.

1. Read 50 books before the end of the year. (That's a lot of reading. Maybe I should get started)

2. Take a class. (I've been looking into a pottery class, or metalsmithing lately.)

3. Save some. Spend less. (Because what this really comes down to is traveling more.)

4. Finish a DIY project. (Hopefully more than one. But I'd be satisfied with just one.)

5. Sew a quilt.

6. Yoga. (and a few times a week.)

7. Get a library card.

8. Hang more art.

9. Photography. (Easy right. I already take picture or edit picture just about every day. But I want to also work on projects related to photography like bettering my etsy shop, and different projects I've had in mind.)

10. Be happy. (It's a good one right.)
