it's the end of the year

i can't believe the year is coming to an end. i thought i better check my 11 in 11 goals before i make new ones for 2012! 12 in 12?

1. improve photography. take a class, learn online, read the manual, something.did not accomplish this goal. i decided i need a new camera, mine is several years old and i want something sleeker but i really enjoy using my iphone camera.
2. learn sewing. i am enjoying trying to figure things out and want to learn to make more. i did learn basic sewing. i made ellie several blankets, cloth diapers, drawstring bags, a small stuffed toy, and a christmas shirt. my goal is to be able to make simple dresses for her or skirts for me!
3. volunteer at theraputic horsemanship (hopefully this summer) a dream. last summer got away from me so i did not accomplish this one either. maybe this summer when i have more time.
4. do something fun/outside my comfort zone/or new!i did do zumba which was for sure outside my comfort zone. we did a lot of fun things this year but my biggest was hiking koko head. 1000 stairs. it was tough but something i am glad i accomplished!
5. improve my fitness/lose 5 lbs. including yoga but adding more especially cardio.i did so good in the summer, it's just hard when i'm working, i lose my motivation, it's still a life goal that i will for sure work on again this summer!
6. advance in technology. matt wants us to get an iphone, nikki wants me on facebook, these are all things i avoid but i guess at some point you have to keep up with technology so you don't fall behind. i phone and facebook, check.
7. improve spirituality. i feel like i have done this some working at the temple but i need to work more on serving others.i did learn this is an ongoing process but have enjoyed working at the temple.
8.be the best grandma ever:) it has been amazing. now i have to learn how to be a good long distance grandma!
9.travel with husband. favorite thing! we got to go to chicago and st. louis, fun trips.
10.print my blog into a book. i have meant to do it for soooo long, i don't want to lose all this suddenly and be sick about it! still working on this one!
11.keep organizing house. i used to be a little obsessive about this and now i am behind. we may move someday and i don't want it to be a mess! i did pretty well with this one but again, it's an ongoing process.

i will try and set my goals for the new year and see how i do with those!
