Hey there! It’s former Animal Keeper Kristen, back on the blog to talk New Year’s Resolutions. Well, I actually haven’t made time yet to reflect on the past year and set some goals for 2013 ( I’ve looked to the museum animals for inspiration in years past: 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012), so I suppose I’ll be working on that the next few days. But I thought I’d throw out a little challenge for you– and for me. I visit the museum at least weekly with my 20 month old, and so I’d like you to leave a comment with one of your resolutions for the upcoming year, and over the next few weeks (months?) I’ll attempt to capture a photo of one of the museum animals “illustrating” that resolution! Could be challenging, and I may need to enlist some Keeper help!
Oh, I do know one goal I’d like to meet in the New Year: learn how to knit. It’s something that’s been on my list for a few years– in fact, I always meant to get former keeper Cassidy to give me a lesson before she moved away, but never got around to it. I think it’d be fun to make Libby a little toddler sweater.
Anyway, hope you all have a Happy New Year, and I’m looking forward to hear your aspirations for 2013!
Eat more chocolate! (Probably bad for wolves, but is there for any animal (besides people) any benefits to chocolate consumption?
I’ve been thinking about gratitude
Renewing my museum membership which is a couple months overdue. (The sheep would have said I’m so baaad!)
Then I plan on getting exercise while looking at the animal exhibits. sailboats, etc etc. Read that the museum animals have also gotten exercise on Loblolly Trail.
