My goal is to start the New Year like it is the first day of school. I want to keep the excitement of re-shaping my days and weeks. I stopped making resolutions ages ago. I set a few goals each year and try to get them done before December 31. In 2011, my goal was to re-learn how to sew. I had a Mother's Day weekend sewing circle sponsored by Singer. It was a hit, but I felt something was missing in my own skills. I signed up for fashion classes at local community college. I went to two family reunions over the summer.
I kept all of my doctor's appointments and kept my weight down. I lost weight, but gain two pounds, but I lost those by December 31st. So, no extreme weight lost or weight gain in 2011. I would say that 2011 was slow for the first half of the year, but the last half was crazy fast. I was taking two Fashion classes, my sister had surgery with a complication, and the holidays were rolling in fast.
My last goal for the year was to make a dress and create 13 gifts for an assistant living facility. I got concern that I would not get everything done by December 31st, but I did. I have posted the dress for you to see. I was able to make fleece lap blankets for the assistant living facility.
I was so rushed that I forgot to take a picture. Everyone loved the lap blankets. My goals for 2012 are very simple. I want to take a vacation with my family. Last year, we took separate vacations. I want to continue taking Fashion classes. I really enjoyed those classes. I want to create a new gift for next year to give to the assistant living facility. I working on options now. Just a few of my thoughts!
