Christmas Time

Hi everyone:

Merry Christmas!  I'm so excited to about having the week off, I haven't had a week off since last Christmas.  I'm already making plans for the week, kind of New Year's resolutions that I will start earlier.

1. Start doing yoga again.  I saw this show about seniors doing yoga and this 86 year old woman was skiing and gardening at 86, and she says it's because of yoga.  Point taken.

2. Learn how to sew.  I just did that today.  I got a sewing machine for Christmas and just used it today for the first time.  It was fun, I can't wait to get more supplies and do something.  My first project will be  runners for the wedding tables.  I've made a couple of dresses that I have hand sewn myself.

This is the first one I ever made.  It was a silk pashmina. 
 This one was a really ugly dress before.  Didn't sew this one, D had to double taped me into it!  I was lucky that belt lasted as long as it did, once I sat on the taxi cab it burst!

This is the before, it looks cute there but the drop waist falls down to my butt.  And the bubble seam falls down to my knees.


3.  Learn a third language.  Thinking either Italian or French. I just happened to watch Eat Pray Love last night and it motivated me to learn another language. 

4. Work out more.  I have to get in shape for the wedding and honeymoon.  I worked out today for about 40 minutes.  I was so out of breath and nauseous after I felt like a contestant on the Biggest Loser.  But I have to keep it up.

This week I need to call and book our wedding night hotel room and get a quote from another rental place. 

What are your new years resolutions?
