goals for 2009

i dont want to call them new years resolutions because if i look at it that way i'd never accomplish them! there has just been a few things i have wanted to do and i figured i better write them down so if i forget (which give it a few days!) i'll be able to look back and remind myself i need to do it!

take up yoga.
learn to cook real meals. well lets be honest, learn to cook a meal period.
make my first quilt
exercise 5 times a week
finish the extra bedroom in our house
learn to budget my time better
start school next fall
don't be so cranky
go outside my comfort zone to meet new people
go to the temple with kars once a month

well those are just a few things! i probably could go on and on but than i for sure wouldnt get anything accomplished!
