new year goals update

so i was going over my new years goals and decided to let everyone else know how im doing.
my 1st goal was to read the BofM and study guide everyday. i haven't read very much. i hate reading and have a hard time starting. (what a great start).
my 2nd goal was to pray morning and night. i've been doing really good on these. bran and i pray together every night, i do my personal ones every night, and most of the time in the mornings.
my 3rd goal was to exercise 3-5 days a week for at least 30 mins. bran and i have been exercising everyday after work (for the last 2 days haha) but plan to do it 3-5 days a week. we've been eating alot better too! its great!
my 4th goal was to go to church when i have sundays off. i've been doing pretty good lately. if i have to work, we go to sacrament at least. we even went to church while we were in california.
my 5th goal was to have fhe with bran. we have been doing ok with this. we usually play card games, exercise or watch movies....it needs to be a little more spiritual.
my 6th goal was to write in my journal. i've been slacking big time on this. i think about it all the time, but haven't actually done it. at least i keep this updated right?
my 7th goal was to keep in touch with my family and friends more. i'm doing a little better with this, but could definitely use a little more help.
my 8th goal was to be thankful for the things i have and not covet the things i dont have. lately when i pray, i try to be thankful more than i ask for things. its hard, but i'm trying.
my 9th goal was to keep house cleaned and organized. i keep it pretty clean. at least the kitchen and family room. its hard to keep it organized when i dont have much storage room. im working with what i've got.
my 10th goal was to start getting food storage together and organized. i've been talking to my mom alot about what we need. she's helping us with this. thanks marmee!
my 11th goal was to learn the guitar. well, bran bought me an acoustic for my b-day in feb and it came with 2 free 30 min lessons. i have been calling every monday to set up a lesson, but they have been full. i finally got my lessons set up! i start tomorrow!!! and then my other 30 min lesson next wednesday. i cant wait!!!
my 12th goal was to go to the temple once a month. i've been doing great on this. the only bummer is that i've been going by myself. and our recommends expire this month too.
my 12 1/2 goal was to move back to AZ. thats not happening anytime soon. we have talked and we'll be moving within the next 2 years. we've both decided we want to go to CA, but we'll see if we can do it financially.
so i guess i've done pretty good. i've been doing better than i thought i would be.
