there are a lot of things i'd like to do this year. not resolutions, but just things i'd like to actually do - i make a list every year, usually, and just try to cross off as many things as i can. this year, things include:
- take finn on the georgetown loop railroad
- have a picnic at garden of the gods
- take a weekend trip to the royal gorge
- lose these five pounds that have been plaguing me off and on for a few months
- grow my hair out again
- finish novel #2
- take finn skiing
- plan a trip back to blacksburg for sometime in the next year or two
- go to an air force academy football game
- eat at five new restaurants
- get nice family pictures taken
- get to a consistent 10k steps per day with the fitbit
- try at least one new recipe every month
- plan a trip to yellowstone
i'm sure there will be more things, but that's a good start to my list. we did a lot of stuff this year, but there are always things we mean to do, but just don't get around to it.
gavin got me tickets to the ballet for christmas, so we're doing that later this month. i've never been, so i hope i like it! we're going to find a nice restaurant to go to beforehand, so it'll be a really nice evening out for us.
me and finn took a trip with my parents back to virginia to see my sister's family and the new baby. the timing ended up pretty crummy - finn was really sick right before we left. he was a mess on the plane ride out there, and ended up throwing up. so he was sick the first few days we were there, and then i got sick. it was a tough trip. i was feeling awful for the return trip home. i wish we had all been feeling well, but it was nice to meet charlotte and spend time with my family.
it's snowing outside right now, and it's nice. it's a perfect day to snuggle up in pajamas and watch football and eat yummy snacks. so that's my plan for the entire rest of the weekend!
