i am kind of sad to see 2010 go... we had so much fun. but i'm sure 2011 will be just as grand! -if not grander. it will be fun to see what comes our way. here are some goals i have been thinking about for the new year...
cook dinner
i cook dinner sometimes... but i would like to cook better dinners more often. cheese quesadillas don't count as a better dinner. i'm going to work on planing more meals out in advance and making frozen dinners once a month.
get rid of my eczema
i have eczema on my right elbow and left knee and it drives me nuts. i HAVE to get rid of this nasty, dry, itchy skin! any tips or homemade concoctions to rid me of this evil?? please share... i am willing to try anything.
print pictures
last year i wanted to take more pictures... and i have been taking them, but now i need to print them. i want to print my favorites and make a collage of some sort. what's the point of taking pictures if they just sit on my computer? (is it weird to have a collage of pictures of just me and jeremy and our adventures??)
keep working out
i have been working out and i am happy to say that i feel great about where i am (or should i say where i was before i took the month of december off of exercising). so i am just making it a goal to keep working out. it makes me happy and it keeps my body healthy!
be brave
2011 is going to be a big year for us. it's already looking like we will be moving across the country sometime this summer. so i need to be brave! i can move to a new place, i can live in a big city, i can survive not being a day's drive away from my parents (maybe), i can get into grad school and not fail.... ahhhhhh! be brave.... be brave!!
read my scriptures
i need to make time to delve into and truly study the scriptures. a verse or column does not suffice- i need more spirituality in my everyday... i need to be feasting, yes- FEASTING, on the word of God. i want to make my scripture reading a priority!
i think we will leave it at that... any new goals for you?

I just got back from the dermatologist for my eczema. I have a strong ointment that is really getting the job done. But that was my last resort. I tried everything! Curse you dry Utah air!
Katie, I grew up with eczema, and the only thing that helped it was the tub of Cetaphil cream. Seriously, it worked better than the medicated stuff for me. Its kinda pricey... like $10+ so I've been trying to get other, cheaper stuff, but then it flared up again and so we caved and bought some last week and its already going away. I hope it works as well for you!!
I have two of the same goals! Exercising and studying my scriptures! And while I'm reading my scriptures and still working on studying, I've exercised everyday this week!
all the boys at our house have eczema -- and what works is soft water and regular lotion. when soft water hasn't been around, the lotion elocin works wonders and you barely need any of it for it to work. i think it's prescription only though. but chris says it's totally worth it.
