Goals

Since I have decided that I need a year of flexibility and don't want to teach this year, I am trying to make goals to do things that I wouldn't normally be able to do while teaching full-time. So far I have:

1. Visit Michigan in October and finally see my best friend!!
(plane ticket is already purchased!!)

2. Join the "B Group" women's Bible study at church that meets Tuesday mornings
(already signed up!)

3. Get back into the habit of writing real letters to my best friend every week
(something that I would like to be able to do while teaching full time)

4. Get back into the habit of journaling (this one may be hard)

5. Go to the Puyallup Fair, something I have wanted to do for the past four years

6. Help start up the post-college group at church (already underway)

7. Cook more, as in actually dirty more than one dish to make dinner
(no more salami sandwiches for dinner!)

8. Knit my Christmas gifts before December 20th. I'm serious this year.

9. Go to Urbana this December with the team from church and then to Kenya with the same team next summer

I may add more to this list, but I don't want to make it too long and overwhelming. Let me know if you have any other ideas of stuff I could do. And I'll make sure to keep y'all posted on how I'm doing on these goals!
