Progress?

So, I'm sure if anyone followed my blog, they would think that so far I had epically failed at my aforementioned goals, but I haven't completely.  First, I think I've given up on making a hard core health thing happen, but I did ride for eight miles - I know, not a lot :\ - with my dad on Saturday, and we went to Catoctin Mountain, and Hannah, Aaron, and I walked around Red Rock, and I did some other random stuff, and I've eaten a lot of bananas and yogurt.  Pretty healthy, right?  If you subtract the regular ice cream carton parties, popcorn, and pasta bowls, maybe.  Also, I have basically made zero progress on learning to cook.  My older brother Brenton told me I'd never find a guy at OC or get married if I couldn't cook for him, but he was wrong about half of that, so we'll see how cooking goes.  As for learning to sew... I bought two pretty basic skirt patters, and two dress patterns, and I now have the material, zipper, some kind of tape thing, etc for a skirt.  It was a tough decision, because I brought Hayley and Mom to help me select a fabric, and apparently we all have pretty different taste in clothes.  My mom and I were talking about when I could get that going today.  Picture taking, I don't know if I'm getting any better, but I tried some stuff with Hannah and with Hayley, and I included a few I liked.  I guess that's all, though.  I'm working on it.  You'll see.
