2009-2010.

Well hello there friends. Happy New Year (almost).

Lots of bloggers are posting either 2009 "in review" posts or 2010 resolution type posts, so I figured I'd hop aboard that bandwagon and point out a few highlights of the past year and also some aspirations for the next.

*Also, look around! It's pink! What do we think? The brightness makes me feel all happy and able to cope with saying goodbye to Christmas.

2009
I got a new job. We moved. I started to struggle with anxiety. We joined a new church. We built and bought a house. Taylor got involved with a group at church. I dyed my hair for the very first time. We went to Klamath Falls with the Martins. We celebrated our first wedding anniversary. I went 5-6 months without really working out. I missed my friends. I fell in love with Bones. I started BSF. Taylor reached his recruiting goals at work. I transitioned from here to here! I attended BlogHer in Chicago. I missed my family. We had a fantastic trip to the lake. We watched a whole handful of friends tie the knot this summer. I started an Etsy shop. I fell even more in love with Anthropologie. We both turned 23. I missed my friends. I watched A LOT of TV on DVD. I missed my family. We celebrated Christmas like nobody's business (and we're still not done). I learned A LOT about myself. And the last couple months I have managed to find some peace.

And now, some goals for 2010, in no particular order.

2010:
Workout 3 days a week (minimum). Eat out only 1-2 nights a week, 1-2 days a week (lunch). Read 20 books. Not bite my husband's head off. Have cookies/snacks for my brother at every game (in Oregon). Not miss BSF unless I cannot avoid it. Keep my beautiful new house clean, but also not stress about it. Be better about tithing. Build up my Etsy shop and boost blog design sales. Learn how to build a Web site (CSS). Save money so we can travel. Visit my family in Montana. Keep up with filing/organization at work. Save up money in general. Help Taylor figure out his next steps. Be a better friend. Put up a fashion post at least once a week. Craft 2 nights a week. Call my brothers more. Add to my fashion sketches. Take better Working Closet photos. Take better photos in general. Grow my hair out. Be a better wife. Be more emotionally accessible. Tone up. Wear sunscreen.

What are you working on this year? What do you want out of 2010?

And while we're on the New Year's theme, if you haven't heard this version of the "New Year's song," I really love it! It's on the Sex & The City Movie soundtrack and it's all kinds of awesome. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
