It has been almost two months since I have updated the status of my New Year's Resolutions. I also have some really cute pictures to share, so here goes!
1. Books Read - I have been a reading maniac lately and since my last post in May I have read fifteen books including: Sisters Red – Jackson Pearce, In Her Shoes – Jennifer Weiner, Sweeping Up Glass – Carolyn Wall, The Painted Kiss – Elizabeth Hickey, The Gilded Chamber – Rebecca Kohn, Spoken From the Heart – Laura Bush, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo – Steig Larson, Much Ado About Jessica Kaplan – Paula M. Cohen, Elizabeth Street – Laurie Fabiano, Five Days in Paris – Danielle Steel, The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner – Stephanie Meyer, Baker Towers – Jennifer Haigh, Sugar Queen – Sarah Addison Allen, Light On Snow – Anita Shreve, and If I Stay – Gayle Foreman. It is quite an eclectic list! I really enjoyed Elizabeth Street, which is a true story based on the author's ancestors who emigrated to NYC from Italy and encountered the early Italian mafia.
2. Lose 25 pounds - I am just a few pound from my goal weight in spite of a trip to Vegas and the beach. Haven't gained, but haven't lost anymore. Stagnating.
3. Anniversary - We still haven't made a decision about where to go next year for our 20th anniversary, but we are thinking about an all inclusive Sandal's resort. Anybody have suggestions?
4. Photography - No progress on the camera or photography lesson goal. However, I am taking lots of pictures! Just call me the "Nanarazzi!"
5. Write - No progress here either!
6. Big Apple Trip - Still hoping to go to New York City, but the summer is flying by.
Jim and I are going to New Orleans (Nawlons!), the "Big Easy" in August.
7. Raise $ for Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Our October "Crop For A Cure" is shaping up, but I also decided to have an online Tastefully Simple Party to benefit JDRF!
