THE HALFWAY MARK

Now that we are officially half-way through 2012 (crazy) and the wedding is officially behind us, I can cross that off my list of things to accomplish this year, and move onto the next. I had to do a little re-evaluating though, and I added some things to the list. Some things I didn't know I wanted when the year began.

Crossing these off:
Plan an event! Our Wedding - June 2, 2012
Set up a blog I love so much, I don't give up on it - welcome :)

So I made some new goals. 6 months left, 6 goals. That seems reasonable to me.

N E W  G O A L S :

1. write more intentionally.

both here on the blog and on other aggregate sites? maybe.

2. get the cooking thing down.

research recipes, experiment with shopping/planning methods, find a way to make it enjoyable for both James and I to be in the kitchen together. 

3. paint. paint. paint.

clean up the living room and designate a space for painting.. and just do it already.
4. read more books, and less blogs.

that sounds funny coming from an aspiring blogger, doesn't it? but.. some day's it does more harm than good and I find myself comparing what I have or don't have to other people who have been doing this for a lot longer than me. 

5. learn how to use my camera.

now that I finally have it, I really want to learn how to use it. perhaps I'll find a class or something. 

6. diy more natural products.

shampoo, deodorant, cleaning products, body scrubs.. chapstick and sunscreen and more. 

What are your goals for the rest of the year? xo

This weekend:
// Whale watching on Saturday!
// Spain vs. Italy on Sunday!
// Possible family BBQ Sunday night.. we haven't heard for sure yet, but I'm missing the littles so I hope it works out.
