in 2005, I...
learned to sew
reupholstered chairs
made it through the first year of motherhood (alive)
found God (again)
learned to sew
reupholstered chairs
made it through the first year of motherhood (alive)
found God (again)
felt like a grown-up
felt like a child
realized showers are over-rated
realized showers please my friends
made some great friends
started talking to my mom again
quit smoking
lost ten pounds
gained ten pounds
lost fourteen pounds
gained 4 pounds
legally ended a controlling relationship
painted two households
discovered the true meaning of patience
discovered the true meaning of love
discovered the true meaning of "infant"
started reading more
started blogging
cooked more (real food)
memorized wal-mart neighborhood market's floorplan
made it through a semester w/o dropping classes
passed my classes
did my taxes alone
sang songs of worship in front of other people
got a rent "nest" of my own
ran to catch the cable guy
captured the beauty of the sunrise and sunset
was reacquainted with my childhood best friend
learned to do payroll and invoices
was the secretary of phi beta lambda
resigned phi beta lambda
quit my job doing payroll and invoices
felt guilty a lot
didn't cry as much as i did in the years before
joined a book study
started writing again
watched way too much HGTV
memorized HGTV
found that my favorite toy is an old piece of furniture
took thousands of pictures
started scrapbooking
found some great role models
learned that i really like babies
realized i am not destined to be a terrible mother just because i had one
forgave my mom
still take a 13 years old's tone with my mom
realized how blessed i am
realized that blessings and luck aren't the same
strengthened my faith in God's plan
questioned my faith in God's plan
redefined faith, grace, mercy, and forgiveness
sewed a lot of curtains
bought weightloss supplements and equiptment that i have yet to use
found the greatest church
made a cake with Rich Mullin's face on top
confused all my old friends
shocked all my new friends
made a house a home
realized showers are over-rated

What a year! I hope the next one holds just as much promise for you :-)
thanks miss lady, i encourage list making, it was fun!
girl - you are such a blessing! I feel so grateful and fortunate to know and love you. I love looking back on the old year that is leaving and looking forward to the New Year to come. God's continuing faithfulness astounds me at this time of year. I can't wait to see what the New Year holds for all of us!
Wow! I love your list! It gives a peek into your heart and year. 2005 gave me the gift of meeting and knowing you! :)
