Goals for 2009

Instead of New Year's resolutions, I have made some written goals for myself. There is something very motivating about writing a list of goals and sharing it with others! Some of these things have already been started! There are long term and short term goals. I hope to finish even the long term goals before the holidays, knowing that I won't be motivated to organize when I really want to bake or decorate!

Personal Goals

  • Read from the Bible everyday
  • Keep a prayer and praise journal
  • Read a book every month
  • Continue learning to crochet, complete a project each month, if I get tired of crochet, I may try knitting

Long Term Goals

  • Clean up my bedroom (started) organize my closet, organize my clothes,organize baby clothes, spot clean carpet, put up curtain rods and curtains, organize linen closet and stockpile from all the CVS shopping
  • Organize school room, get rid of excess, organize what we need
  • Paint the living room (if I can decide on a color...these decisions are torture for me...any suggestions are welcomed) and trim, possibly add crown molding

Short Term Goals

I will post on my progress! Happy New Year!

CAN I COME AND HELP.

I LOVE TO HANG UP CLOTHES ON THE CLOTHES LINE. WHAT I DID WHEN I TOOK THEM OFF THE LINE WAS GO AHEAD AND FOLD THEM AND WHEN YOU BRING THEM IN THEY ARE READY TO PUT AWAY.
