One of my New Year's Resolutions from last year that I kept for this year was to Try New Things.
How did I do?
Well, let's see.. I tried some new foods, like hummus and red bell peppers and popcorn shrimp.
I tried a new restaurant, which involved more new foods; a hibachi grill.
I started using an elliptical and a punching bag in my workouts; not that I workout nearly as much as I should.
The hubby and I started going to Trivia Night at a local bar with some of his friends. It's the one 'adult' thing we do where we can talk about non-work-related things and feel human and normal. It's also kind of like a date night.
Perhaps I need to up my game.
After searching for 'new things to try', I looked up lists of suggested things. Most of them are things that people wish they had time to do and things I have already done.
Perhaps I shall get out my notebook and jot these down.. :)
What other things can you think of that I could try?

- bake a cake or cookies for someone else
- make your own greeting cards
- go hiking
- go on a picnic
- roller skate
- shop at a farmer's market
- play a board game
- donate to charity
- take your camera out for a day
- attend a food tasting festival
- start a daily journal
- plant a garden or a flower bed
But there are a few things I still could do:
- volunteer at a shelter
- visit a museum or art gallery (with the boys)
- visit a new town (i'd take my camera, too)
- join a community class
- have a major de-clutter and donate to charity
- try a new water activity
- take a road trip
- try a new look, hair or wardrobe
- re-read an old favorite book
