Some Resolutions for the New Year

I think I did OK with my resolutions last year, and I love making new ones every year.  I have learned not to make resolutions for myself that require doing something every single day without fail for the entire year.  When I mess up once, I just totally give it up.  So here a few goals I have for this year:

  • Read 52 books.  I didn't quite make it last year, but I don't think it is an unreasonable goal.  I'm also going to count audio books (though those will be limited), which I can listen to while working toward my second goal:
  • Get really good at knitting.  I have enjoyed learning new stitches and skills in the past couple of months, and I'd like to do a variety of projects this year at higher levels.  I don't necessarily want to become an expert in a year, but I'd like to be able to do projects considered advanced by the end of the year.
  • Find some way to organize recipes/meal planning in a way that works for us.  
  • Learn to use our nice, new camera we got for Christmas.  
  • Start a small garden.
  • Memorize 12 Psalms (one a month) using the Psalter.
  • Run a 5K.
