Resolutions

So I thought I'd shake things up this year and make some resolutions.  I've never really done it and thought I'd give it a try.  So here they are.
1. Read at least 15 books, I know it doesn't sound like much but somedays its hard to find time. (I've already knocked one out)
2. Get back in shape, by my birthday.  Not too ambitious but again exercising with 3 kiddos is hard to do.
3. Try new places to eat.  I know this totally conflicts with number 2 but I love food and like finding new good places.
4. Make at least one new friend when we move.  Really I'll only have like 6 months to do this and I'm not that good at making friends.
5.Bring my scriptures to church.  I know really pathetic but I thought I'd start with baby steps.  Maybe next year I'll work on reading before the lesson.
6. Decorate our first home.  We'll be buying this year and it'd be fun to at least paint a few rooms.
So nothing too lofty but I'm trying to be realistic and I'd rather set goals I may actually accomplish than make up stuff I know I'll never do.

I'm so bad about #5. I feel like with a huge diaper bag & a car seat to bring into church I can't possibly grab one more thing!

Have yall decided where you're moving to?

Carrie, I think those are great resolutions and plenty lofty! I get little enough done with one kid, and imagining having 2 more with me (though a very fun idea, don't get me wrong), seems rather daunting! :) I think you're amazing!

Sounds fun! I'm bad at making friends too. I have to bribe people to be friends with me.

15 books! That's alot even for someone with no kids. Great list!

I agree, 15 books is a lot to read with 3 adorable children. I can barely read a few a year if I'm lucky, and my kids are much older than yours.
