Goals for 2009

Wow! I haven't written in a while! So here we go, a few tidbits and updates


Well in the spirit of a fresh start....I will post about the high aspirations I have for the new year. These goals are derived not only from things I would like to do, but also things I've tried to do and failed in.
So with a deep inward sigh...here goes:
~ Read Bible daily
~ Make our meals from scratch....no more takeout or fast-food....(prepackaged IS fast food)
~ save a sum of money
~ No longer spend on things that soon become clutter
~ Cover my head ( I know I should...I have no excuse..vanity and pride)
~ become more humble and meek
~ Do not nag husband
~ Try my hardest to not gossip with my MIL
~ Exercise (of course, the list simply wouldn't be complete with out this!) at least 4x's a week
~ loose 10pds
~ Eat a more BALANCED diet. ( I am known for liking only one or two food groups)
~ Try to force myself to eat things I don't like (today I forced down a few carrots, I will LEARN to like them.)
~ Take better care of my hair, skin and teeth (brushing with boar bristle brushes, floss more often and exfoliate and moisturize )
~ limit my intake of candy
~ Force my oldest (he was two on the 14th) to eat better with me ( he eats more healthily than I do....but parents set the trend)
~ spend less time on the computer
~ Pray more than once daily
~ buy groceries and actually use them
~ Keep house clean(er)
~ Potty train Oldest
~ Knit at least 6 things
~ Sew at least 3 USEFUL items
~ Limit my exposure to negative influences
~ Submit to the proper authorities (all the time..not just when I feel like it)
~ Paint bathroom
~ wean youngest from Breastfeeding (I still am Iffy about this though)
~ Stock freezer with homemade goodies once a month

Thats about it.....I know I missed a few things!

I wrote this list on the 1st and life became busy and I never did post it until now, since then, I have been starting to cover and bake, I am reading the new testament, keeping my house clean(er) and I have sewn 2 useful items! (Pajama pants), I have spent less time on the Computer (hence less posting), and I could list other things but I don't feel like it :D.



BTW, thank you for the comments, it is nice to know that someone is reading !
