Here we are at 2012...wow...
Jan. 3rd, 2012 12:25 pmWell, I looked back to last January and I did not find anything but pregnancy and work things. I guess I was very, very focused on taking care of me last year at this time and didn't really set myself any goals for the year but to stay healthy, give birth and be a mom. I looked at 2010 which showed the following which I've edited for what I knew I did or has done:
1. Learn to spin (better)
2. Learn to knit socks
3. Perfect homemade mac and cheese
4. Bike in El Tour Again
5. Learn to knit Elizabeth Zimmerman's Surprise Jacket
6. Learn to make buttermilk biscuits
7. Teach something at Griffin Dyeworks Retreat
Which leaves me with 2 cooking things and a biking thing of stuff I still want to accomplish. Now also to the list I want to knit a sweater for myself and I also want to spin a lot more yarn and I want to work on the house and the yard.
So for 2012 here are my goals:
1) Learn to spin even better!
2) Perfect homemade mac and cheese
3) Perfect Carrot Cake for Benton's First b-day
4) Learn to make buttermilk biscuits
5) Get the wall around the property completed.
6) Get the addition put on the house.
7) Make myself a nice sweater
8) Ride El Tour Again
9) Run a 5k
The last one is gonna be a goal to get myself back up and moving. I've now gotten the boy mostly weaned which means I no longer get a calorie drain from a kid feeding off of me. I have had over a year of eating more than I would normally and well, its time to not let that pack on the pounds. I need to get myself back into the shape I was before I was pregnant and I know the work its gonna take. I figure if I give myself some goals like a race or two throughout the year I'll get back into shape quicker or at least have a goal in mind. My weight is not a factor for me right now. I'm okay where I'm at..I want to get stronger and more agile and just look good. So I'm gonna be looking for a races here in April and maybe in Sept/oct. We shall see. I want to be healthy and get the house where we want it. I miss not having a guest room and I want my studio to remain a studio so the addition it is.
So we shall see how we do.
