1. Be more motivated to read scriptures- daily.

3. Plan meals AND follow through with the plan.
4. Save money.
5. Don't buy everything I want for the boys.
6. Control my temper.
7. Go to bed earlier (not early, just earlier).
8. Visit Grandma Schakel (she recently moved to HI) every other year.
9. Visit Grandparents in Utah every other year (preferably opposite Gma Schakel year).
10. Be a supportive wife and not a nag.
11. Go on bi-monthly dates with Bryan.

18. Buy a house- that I love.
19. Be happy
20. Be more child-like, not childish
21. Go on family vacations every year ( I would prefer more but #4 would be need to be removed from the list) #8 and #9 would qualify for this one too
22. Get new contacts and glasses.
23. Go to regular doctor appts for me (I sometimes think that I go enough for the boys and I am fine but you need to go regularly).
24. Be excited about living in So Cal.
25. Call friends and family on a REGULAR basis; I know that I horrible at calling people but I justify why I don't and I do think about everybody ALL the time but then I have a million reasons why not to call- #1 I bet they are already in bed (which is usually true) #2 they are getting their kids to bed #3 Bryan is right here, I should talk to him #4 their husband is home from work already #5 they are eating dinner #6 they are taking a nap #7 JUST DO IT
26. Get organized- I HATE paper
I am going to have to finish this later, Austin has climbed on me probably 10 times since I sat down and I really should work on some of the things I just wrote down. I may or may not record my progress (that is something on the website, which is why I don't want to do it there) here. I would hate to say that I have made progress on say calling friends and family and I haven't called you. Don't worry, if I just call one person that is progress for me, so if you don't get a call within a week, I am a procrastinator (I think I found my #27) I will call eventually and you could help me along and call me (I can email my home phone and I still have my Waco cell number).
27. Don't procrastinate.

Wow! I don't even want to start a list! Especially with the stress of packing...once we get to Tyler I want to crash for a week and do NOTHING! We are leaving Waco Monday, the 30th. And to answer your question...it is a toy hand mixer that Briel was playing with on her bed. She had a piece of bread in it that she was "mixing." Micah was loving the sound of the mixer! :)
oh my Karin- you go girl!
Next time you get fed up with socal, you just drive on over to AZ and play with us! Next time I am in SoCal I am so planning on beaching with you and your kids!
You have never called me in your life (even though I have called you twice now), and I am not responsible for your blog boredom. Tonight's post should be plenty entertaining for you. Good luck with the rest of that.
- Your fellow insomniac
PS - Your mom likes it here, she doesn't want to go home. Perhaps you should reconsider picturesque North Carolina. It's awesome here!
You call me more than anyone in the family. Does that mean everyone else hates me, or you hold yourself to too high a standard?
Great list! Maybe I should write my "to do's" down instead of letting them run wildly in my head.
#28 - visit your dear sister who just moved away from you and help her find a big cozy rug for the bare family room, when we get the house, that is.
Hey, how about #29: give my family members my new address.
Come up whenever you want. Really. We have a room all ready for you and your cute little guys. The big guy is welcome, too, but he may have to work and all.
