so this is the new year

i'm kind of into making lists. and what better time to make one than on the first day of the new year? here we are at 2007 - just three years short of what danyeal and i refer to as the space age. (2010 - doesn't that have a space-agey ring to it??) so here are a few resolutions that i would like to go for this year....

run 1000 miles
(i was close this year, at 900, but i never took the time to calculate my mileage until about a week ago. this year i'm making a goal.)

start wearing face lotion that contains sunscreen
(so that i will not be wrinkly or cancerous later in life - you're supposed to wear sunscreen every day, or so i read...and what better time to start than good old 2007?)

pray more
(that is purposefully worded in a vague, immeasurable way, because i don't really want to quantify prayers i guess. i just want to pray more than i do now, because i know it's not enough for me.)

worry less
(worrying is something i do way too much of. i worry about brad, my dog, if we're saving enough money, if we're giving enough money away, what would happen in a disaster, my relationship with my mom, what i'm going to do with my life...etc. it's not really helping me out much. i hope that the "pray more" initiative will help with "worry less". we'll see.)

keep in better touch with friends
(i've gotten pretty bad about this. i've been very lazy about emailing, writing, calling, and all of that. and my friends are very important to me. i should act like it.)


i made a list last year too. i'll have to find it and do a "2006 in review" to celebrate my successes and weep over my failures. huzzah!
