So, about those resolutions . . .

Yeah, they were were WAY too ambitious. Obviously.

1) Do something about feeling so floompy all the time. Start exercising. Take it slow. How about once in January, twice in February, thrice in March and so on so by next December you’ll be dancing around about three times a week. Think about how nice exercising would be someday far in the future.

2) Read one book a week. Really long books can span two weeks but only if they are REALLY long. Reading Little D toddler books do not count, not even when you read them 79 times in a row. (This goal is NOT about making myself read because I LOVE to read. It’s about GIVING MYSELF THE TIME to read. Because currently I never do. It somehow feels like too much of a luxury, like there are toddler clothes I could fold or toys I could be busy tripping over.) This one started out well but then I picked a “real” book (instead of a children’s novel that reads like the wind) for the first week of February and it, ahem, took me all month to read. But it was really good. But took so long to read. Whew! So, read a little (for fun) everyday.

3) Write up reviews of the books you read mainly to make yourself think about them in more words than “Book good. Book not good.” Put them here or on Goodreads, or something. *Snort* Write reviews being all coherent and crap? You silly person. Okay, uh make sure you RATE each book you read on Goodreads.

4) Do Illustration Friday 10 times this year. See, piece of cake, not even once a month. Seriously, you can do this! Seriously, you cannot. Doodle a little if you want to, or whatever.

5) Do Project 365 this year. AND so it actually does something like improve your photo skills, these shots have to be in fully manual mode. Actually taking more photos would be good and I have a plan I will detail later in a separate post. Muhahahahahahahahaha.

6) Knit one sweater for yourself this year. Like a real sweater. So, like, pretend you are going to knit yourself a sweater and you know, if it works out, great.

7)Knit one sweater for Hone this year. Also a real sweater. Oh! You can keep this one since this sweater is almost done. Woo!

8 ) And just so he doesn’t feel left out, knit one sweater for Little D this year. This one can be fake. You can keep this one too. Toddlers are small.

9) Write a novel. (Shhhhh, this one is being snuck in so I won’t really notice it until it’s too late.) Write a novel. What? This resolution is totally doable. What? Shut up.

10) Start cooking more. (No, I won’t quantify it! Neener neener.) So I am doing this already. Weird, since I sorta hate cooking. But I love eating so maybe that is it . . .
