Goals revisited!

New Goals:

1. Bought the book Sew U - now, practice and learn each exercise - take notes, and hopefully work toward sewing some pants, a shirt, and a skirt, and then some!

2. Start from the beginning of the embroidery project book, and do each project, from start to end! How am I going to learn, if I don't even DO anything except gaze on at the pictures and dream of one day being able to make that stuff (tea cozy, tablecloth, et cetera!)

3. Do some physical exercise - if I am so tired of clothes fitting akwardly (or at least feeling akward in my clothes) do something about it! My ultimate goal is this: by holiday photos, have pretty hair (no butch man-cut like last year!), feel GOOD about how I look in the picture ("I *know* I did everything I could to look this cute!" is what I should be able to say), find matching holiday tops for Johnna and I - like red shirts with Rudolph on them or something. And John could wear a nice red shirt or something, too!)

John and I talked about giving one another an hour each day to do something for ourselves, such as, giving me an hour to practice my sewing, or an hour for him to look up cheese making tools on the internet, for example. We need to start setting aside time to develop the things that interest us!
