Following the Trend

Since New Year's Resolutions didn't work, and neither did my "genius" idea of doing Birthday Resolutions.....let's try MONTHLY GOALS. It seems to be working for everyone else, hopefully it works for me. For my first month, I based mine off of Sarah Lawhorn's. So...here we go:

FUN:

Read 2 books: The Blade Itself and Before They Are Hanged both by Joe Abercrombie.

Get better at throwing darts. For Christmas from my boss I received a really nice dart board. So, Josh and I have decided to start throwing darts. We played two rounds the other night, it went pretty well and we had tons of fun. It's something I definitely want to keep doing, especially since Josh and I both found it enjoyable.

Catch up with friends. Since the holidays I have not gotten to catch up with a lot of my friends. This MUST change.

DIY/CRAFTING:

Complete 4 "events" for my Family Scrapbook. For a few years, yes a few years, I having been putting all the pictures my mom has taken throughout the years and compile them into a scrapbook for her. So far I've only ready year 1987, and what's even worse, I started with my birth...in 1986. Yeah, I should work on that.

Work more on the Clymer Family Tree. I've slacked on this. I really want to get it done and be able to finally put all the pieces together.

HOME:

Clean my house from top to bottom. I "straightened" my house after Christmas, but since then...it's become a little less than clean. EEK.

Along with this, my house is slightly unorganized. So, starting with the kitchen, I will be one heck of an organized person.

COOKING:

Cook more meals at home. Josh and I have probably 2, maybe 3 days off together. Instead of cooking meals together at home (for a couple different reasons) we just go out to eat. I think we both want to change this.

Since I will be working on cooking at home, this means I want to try 2 new recipes.

WELLNESS:

Start having a better eating routine. This includes time of meals and healthier foods.

Begin a good work-out consisting of cardio/ flexability/ and toning.

Well, I think that's it for now. Maybe this will be more helpful...but you won't know until the end of the month! hehe. I like teasers.

Whoo hoo for goals! They sound like good ones - you'll have to let us know what recipes you make! And if you can bear to do it, take befores and afters of your house when you clean!
