'Tis the season for trying to remember what goals we set last year, wondering why we even set New Years Resolutions since we always forget them and then go on making them again...
...oh the human race...
And yet I do it too. Mind you I figure that if I write them down, I have no excuses for forgetting, right? :)
I always set smaller "goals" (really just things I want to do) for the Christmas break. Things I want to do to maximize my time off and enjoy this time of the year.
Some of the things I had on my list (which I completed) this year include:
See the lights at Temple Square
Knit a scarf (ok... I cheat... I use a loom... and I'm not quite done yet)
Do a puzzle (technically I did 2... one with Jessie and another on my own)
Make mint fudge
Make our traditional Holiday food items with Mom (Christmas braids, candies, etc.)
Finish my book (I've been so tired and busy lately that I'd had it sitting around forever)
Give really meaningful gifts
Be social on New Year's Eve
See friends in town (missed seeing Camille's crew -- I was sick -- and Katie's crew :( -- hopefully I'll catch the Pondster before she heads back to Cali)
I really wanted to go skiing over the break, but it just didn't happen.
Other things I did:
Spoiled the Cal-bear :)
Went to Narnia (Voyage of the Dawn Treader) and out to Chili's with some friends
Finally re-watched INCEPTION (still soooo good!)
Saw A BEE MOVIE
Played lots games (and never won :( -- except for Mario Kart...)
Watched a bunch of LIE TO ME episodes
Music, music and more music
Family time! :)
Watched a few traditional Christmas movies
Cleaned and organized to make construction a little more sane
Worked out
Slept in
And tomorrow... it's back to school.
The good thing about this is having a schedule.
And institute is starting up again.
And Thursday is Temple Night.
It's already after 11?
Darn.
I better go to sleep...

You are a remarkable woman. For having such a demanding job how do you get so many activities in? Christmas break or no Christmas break! Blah.
Speaking of you working out, you are looking fantastic cousin! Fan-tastic. And pretty. And sweet. And loads of other things I'd rather not gush over and embarrass you by.
I can't believe Christmas break is already over, i wanted to see you! Maybe we can get together soon. Good luck with school starting up again :)
Whoa busy woman! No wonder we didn't get to meet up!;) Just kidding... I'm sorry you weren't feeling well. I'm glad to hear you had such a fun Christmas break. Miss you!
So, yeah, the real world is no fun, but it sounds like you're really enjoying it at least!
